Sounds like there's a cruel adult voice in you saying you don't deserve therapy because you can't pull yourself together and do things properly. So you should quit. You're just not good enough.
And then there's a small hurt child voice saying please don't abandon me, please be kind.
Ideally the two need to be integrated, so that the adult voice becomes kinder and can nuture the hurt part in yourself. Until then it would be best to stay in therapy and learn how to do it.
At least, this is what my therapist would say.
