Spoke with T today about how I'm feeling about brunt bored of therapy.
About cutting down possibly.
T said "um not saying doing this, just an idea, but what about if you come when you feel you need it"

As soon as she said this I begun to feel I can't do it.
That there's a difference between thinking about it and actually doing it. Loosing that safety net. Instantly bringing to mind the times I do feel in a dark place but therapy is such a safe, trustworthy place that is like I've just taken it for granted. But giving it the force it does have in my life. The dark times manageable because of therapy
So then I said to T "why are you suggesting that?!"
T said "I s getting to help you sort out what you feel you need. I've said before, I will be here as long as I can think"

I said" why only while you can think? "
T said" well, if I got alzeimers I wouldn't be any use to you"

I replied "does that run in your family?"
T said "no"
So I said "well then. Thsts not going to happen is it "

Im am conflicted about what I want. What was I dealt looking for /asking. I'm thinking there's is something going on more than what is on the surface.

I think T's tend to take their cues from the client. So if the client talks about wanting to take a step back, or wanting to cut down sessions, the T will support that idea. My suggestion is to talk to your T about how it made you feel and about your worry of losing that safety net.
Thanks for this!
