Yes, very sad. Could it be that you're actually not read to terminate right now? I mean, in the termination models that I've read about, sometimes they say that it shouldn't happen until the client wants it. And often they suggest working on it for a long time, getting to a place where you still feel all those therapy warm fuzzies, and are *also* ok with letting go of the continuous contact.
It's hard to imagine for me, too, and I wonder whether that type of ending is just a fiction that therapists made up. But maybe not?
Take care of yourself through this. It is a really hard thing.
