Noa, I'd be interested in hearing more about how you use therapy when you're feeling better. I always get this urge to drop to fewer than twice a week when I'm feeling good, because I sometimes feel like I'm struggling to make conversation during sessions during those times. But my therapist thinks that the twice a week sessions give me a needed stability. I would think he just liked the income stream, but I do think he's right in that I have been way more stable since I've been on a twice a week schedule so I don't really want to risk my stability. On the other hand, I would like to use the time better.
Do you have trouble thinking of anything to say when you're feeling well? Or do you work on issues that you don't tackle when you're feeling poorly.
I think my therapist doesn't want to do that. He wants me to just enjoy feeling better and not bring up "issues". But that leaves me a bit.... bored. I guess we're not meant to be best buds or anything.
