I have a similar history to yours, a stressful professional job, 2 kids, and a rep that I was a 'rock' until my early 30s. I've also been on disability for about 5! years, but I'm not at all dependent on my therp. I was dependent on the one who terminated me and I guess I can see where he enabled me to 'stay ill', but since I no longer have that relationship (and it has been 3 years) and still don't work I don't see the correlation. I think I'm a type A perfectionist who can't live up to former expectations, and that feeds the affective cycles I have. At least that's my theory :-), and I'm sticking to it.
take care, judy
