Sweetie, are you willing to consider that you might be mistaken about what you saw in his eyes? I have been, frequently, with my therapist. You've known him for a long time as a kind, gentle man. It's unlikely that your long term perception is wrong while your brief perception at a time when you're not feeling really well is more correct.

My therapist never called me after I quit. I always had to call him. I think it's a rule or something. So don't feel offended or hurt if he doesn't call. You can tell a whole lot more about his reaction if you call him.

You haven't said anything here that he shouldn't see. In fact, I think it would be a good thing if you could tell him exactly what you said here. In all likelihood, JYL, he is a kind, gentle man who may be a tad frustrated at feeling unable to help you as much as he would like. If you could find the courage to tell him how he has helped you, and what is holding you back from letting him help you more, he may surprise you and come through for you in a way you didn't expect.
