My t told me this week that I can back off my sessions to every two weeks if I'd like-yes, I'd like this! Progress! Finally, my meds. have evened me out so I can do real therapy sessions instead of trying to maintain the fear and tears. For three months I went downhill, and I began to think that the pdocs, t, and family doc had no idea what they were doing. I still wonder why the pdoc prescribes so slowly! They should be able to look at past meds to get an idea of what will work.
Now, I wonder how long therapy will take, or if I will have another spiral before it is over. I seem to remember a few weeks ago that my to said we need to think in terms of months not weeks. I can handle months, but I hope it's not years!

It feels good but scary. I think I'll miss my t on off-weeks.

Yes I really understand that. The excitment of making enough progress to be seen biweekly but I would miss the routine! And my T!

My fear has switched from T abadoning me to T cutting down my twice week sessions! Maybe you can talk to your T if your having a hard time or missing T on off weeks you two can talk or email even if it's just to connect for a moment? I'm not sure how your T feels about contact in between sessions tho..

So are you starting this coming week seeing your T?
Thanks for this!

I see my t tomorrow, and then not again until the 20th. I just saw her last week and I feel like it's been forever, so we will see how well I do waiting two weeks.

Well that's good you see her tommorow.
Maybe it's an option if the 2 weeks are too long that you can go back to weekly? Hopefully you are comfortable with whatever you guys agree upon
