i think he really doesn't understand why i find it so hard to talk about myself... probably because he has no problem talking himself. and i also think trust should be built up over time... he doesn't seem to have patience for that, like you said. (in that respect he reminds me of my ex....) anyway, he really doesn't realise how hard it is for me, although i have tried to tell him and he has reassuring kind words that make it seem like he understands. i don't know if his reasons for wanting to stop therapy with me are anything to do with not wanting to deal with me and generally not liking me (which is what it feels like)...maybe he just doesn't think he can help me. which is really sad...because then who can?
it's only been about 6 months since i've started seeing him, so we've not come anywhere near the 2 year limit...i suppose i could ask him for more sessions and i'm pretty sure he wouldn't be harsh enough to decline. i just don't know if it's a good idea...i want to keep seeing him, but i don't know if it's because i really believe he can help me or because i just really like him. i'm already so attached to him, and that's already caused me so much pain...today felt like he was 'breaking up' with me...therapy is surely not meant to make me feel like that?
