We start therapy because we feel awful or there are things that aren't working for us, or we want to change or whatever...
And when those things go away, or change or get better, does that mean we no longer need therapy? I know we can almost always find things to work on, but what if you are symptom free and seemingly doing well? But what if you also know that this is possible because of the stability therapy provides?
Ug. I'm struggling with this right now. How will I know when going to therapy has gone from needing to be there to just wanting to be there? My therapist tells me I can come as long as I want to. But that isn't the question. I don't want to take up space that someone else needs and I don't want to bore him to death. And shouldn't I want to do other things with my time?
