>So, what do you talk about in therapy when you're doing well? I think that I'm worried he'll lose interest in me if I'm well, and I'll notice and feel rejected. And frankly, what do you talk about? It seems silly to say, "things are good." I don't know what else to say after that.

Good question. This is where I am, too. My therapist said something about how it was OK to talk about things that weren't problems. I share your "lost in the dark" feeling. But I guess that I am trusting my therapist enough to just go in and talk about what I'm thinking about. And it has brought us to interesting places. And sometimes I think I'm just boring him. But he is right that I need to learn to live when there aren't 16 crises lined up. I don't know how to do that.

And we talk again and again and again about how I don't have to lose him if I get better. I still don't believe it.

So I don't know the answer to your question, but you aren't alone!
