You're strong enough to get through this.

Are you still at work or at home ? Could you get into bed and watch old movies to distract yourself a little bit. Maybe take a hot shower. Do you have the number of any helplines for your area?
Thanks for this!

0. Not wrong at all. It's your money, your time, your therapy and your feeling ok with it.

Why not try (without saying anything to her yet) going forward without a termination session. See how it goes. You can always change your mind. Sometimes trying on a decision like that is helpful to me.
Thanks for this!

I just got email notification that they moved my husband from the intake prison to another facility. Which set off another round of tears. How did my life get to this point? Where did it all go wrong? What did I do wrong? My life is such a train wreck and I'm so tired. Tired of trying and tired of hurting.

Puncteration is also very important. Theres a big difference between saying "i want some honey whiskey" or "i want some honey, whiskey" and "i want some whiskey, honey" some of those will getcher face slapped.
