In some of my posts, I have talked about how amazing my T is. And how much he has helped me. Well, he told me that his wife is pregnant, I am so happy for him, I guess they have been trying for awhile. And then he tells me that he is moving out of state to be closer to his wifes parents. New Therapist??????And he also told me that he wont be coming back! New Therapist?????? New Therapist??????
So I have 2 choices, 1) get a new T. Or 2) stop therapy all together. I dont know what I want to do. New Therapist?????? I always thought he would be there forever, I guess I was over exaggerating.

I vote for option A.
About being idealistic/overexaggerating... I think that a lot of us feel that way when we have a T that we like. It didn't quite happen that way with me and my first T (I decided to move, not him), but I also thought I would have a really hard time finding a new T that would be even half as good as he was.

However, I now have a T who is totally amazing and one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I can't compare and say one is better than the other, but I do feel that my old T was perfect for me at that time of my life, and that my new T is perfect for me at this time in my life.

Find a new one - you'll thank yourself. You've been through a lot and stopping therapy altogether, especially at your age, would deprive you of some adult support that I personally wish I had back then.

Hang in there!

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
