pc, I wish I had the option of taking some time off. I am dependent on my pdoc for meds which are necessary to keep me from decompensating. What I wanted to say is that regardless of whether you take a break or find another therapist, termination is very important and should be thorough. If you had a therapeutic alliance, it likely involved issues of trust, idealization, resistance, and mutual growth. Hopefully, as a part of your termination you will take a look at your experience, the pieces of yourselves you exchanged and prepare for the loss of this confidant. Whatever you decide to do, I hope you have a painless transition.

In case you are interested, I spoke about my train wreck of a termination in a post from a few months ago.
