In reply to Forever therapy - Spoke to my therapist, posted by Dinah on December 31, 2004, at 20:35:32
Dinah,
I love your therapist. He comforts me too.
I think your struggle with socially acceptable "forever therapy" mirrors mine with intense therapy. I almost never tell anyone my frequency of visits. The few I have make a weird face and I can tell they are wondering a) Are you having an affair with your therapist? or b) are you dangerous in some way?
I've had these conversations with my therapist too. And I think, like you, I'm trying to stay with: if it is OK with him and OK with me, than that is enough. I think the problem is that sometimes I want to talk about my therapy experience with some of my friends and I often feel like I can't. But of course, there are more reasons than frequency.
I think forever therapy sounds good right now to me too. I want to camp in his office. :)
