ok, so i am sick of seeing my therapist. i feel like my relationship w/ him is just way too complicated. he knows too damn much about me. therapy is suppose to help you, not create all this anxiety that your therapist is going to drop you cold. i really feel my borderline side coming out right about now.
ok. calming down. i just want to simplifiy my life. i can get away w/ not calling to schedule my next appointment until after i get my finals done, since he said to call when i had those done. i can drag those out for two weeks, since i have incompletes. i can't figure out why i am so flustered. has anyone ever gotten so very anxious about therapy? how do you get through it?

You may not like this, but try telling your therapist this. I find that when I go in telling her I really don't want to see her that we make some good progress. Something is definitely being dredged up and you feel comfortable enough to express it w/your therapist. Just my opinion,
