Glad you're feeling better today. I'm coming to the close of my therapy, too (no rush, I can take as long as I like), but I had to post because I did the same thing you did, but a couple of weeks ago. I called my T and told her I needed a break. Money was my excuse, but it was also true: I needed a break. I'm learning things on my own; she has taught me well and I need to start doing things myself. She took it wrong, thought I was quitting, but I haven't. I've been back several times, but I do recognize that I was running away; I wanted to leave her before she left me. We still have a main issue to work out--a mother thing between her and I (my mother was no help to me with csa when I was a child) and she thinks I'm pushing her away because I think she can't help. I don't know if she can help, but for me (I'm not saying you at all), I realized I was running away. But I had good reasons, too, and I stand by them.

He will understand. He's supposed to understand. It's like the little kid who holds on close and then pulls away until gradually he learns to be on his own. It's still ups and downs, but you're definitely on the up side!
take care,
antigua
