I haven't been around long, but are these thoughts of termination new? Specifically, have they been around only since you started group therapy as well? If so, that change along with the new stress of group in your individual session would certainly cause anyone to think about making a change.
I'm not sure since I'm not there yet, but feeling that therapy is such an essential lifeline is probably a very good sign. Does your therapist know how strongly you feel about it in your life? If so, does she encourage that? I would guess that it means you have a strong desire not only to survive but to thrive, and you know that therapy is the means to do just that.
I wish I had some words of wisdom for you, but please know I have lots of sympathy for the confusion and anguish you must be feeling. Keep posting, and let us know how it evolves. Hopefully, it will turn into some beautiful lesson, then you can teach us!
