>But he seems concerned that maybe therapy is too intense if I can't put myself back together enough to be able to go back to work.
I think that they often really don't have a clue how much therapy effects us. My therapist changed how he was dealing with me a lot right after we had a discussion about how it wasn't "healthy" for me to be so destroyed by therapy. And the changes really have helped with that.
I'm glad you were open and honest with him. Sometimes I think the disjointed sessions are really important. I find that if I can accept the disjointedness that I am more honest - the rest of the time, I might be editing thing so that what I say all supports the point I'm trying to make. But it is true that when the sessions are really disjointed, it might take a little while (sessions) to figure out what the issues really are.
I hope that whatever you are heading towards is helpful in the long run.
