Dinah,
I can see why you feel you need your T more. You need someone to vent to. With so much stress, it is a wonder you don't wig out.
I am afraid I am not much help as I too feel like such a failure.
I envy the relationship that you and so many here have with their t's. I feel I am a failure at that as well. I suck at relationships that involve people.
It isn't so much that you are dependent, but that you need a safe port in the eyes of so many storms. Again, be thankful you have that outlet. It is demoralizing to have too many bosses and not enough help to sort it all out. "Like too many cooks in the kitchen" and then nothing really gets done. I wish they would see the value in helping you would help them in the long run, but often bosses don't want the bother.
I am not sure the answer to that impossible situation but I say don't worry about depending on your T. That is what he is there for.
As for it being the opposite of progress, depends on how you look at it. You recognize your need of him, and why you need him. Isn't that healthy?
