I saw my T today after going two weeks between appointments. This was my decision. I've always seen him weekly. But I have been feeling better and stronger since I found an anti-depressant that worked and he and I have done a lot of work on issues over the last 4-1/2 years and I found I just didn't have a lot to talk to him about. After my appointment today he told me he would be away the week after next, so we made an appointment for three weeks away. I've found myself crying all night. Three weeks is such a long time. I still feel this desire to be special to him and I feel like -- three weeks and he doesn't even care. He's always told me that the point of therapy is to end and the gift to him is to see me get better and be able to end.
So now I don't know. Should I call him tomorrow and ask to see him next week, even though I don't have anything pressing to talk about? Or should I just wait out the three weeks? I want to be better and not need him so much.
