Not at all irrational. My therapist and I had this conversation yesterday, as he knows he will never be rid of me voluntarily. And I was obsessing that one day, unless I'm lucky enough to die first, he'll abandon me.
He said that the nice thing about being a therapist is that they can continue to practice for a long time, and that any conversations we had now about abandonment wouldn't have any meaning because it would be so far in the future.
So I don't think it's at all irrational. :D
