Thanks, Mystickangaroo.
How often do people typically meet for sessions? At my university, we can only meet once per week. At the initial intake session, my therapist said that we would probably have to go down to meeting once every other week b/c of his schedule. This terrifies me. I am afraid to tell him how scary this is because I fear that it is selfish. However, I really feel like I need to meet every week- I can hardly make it from session to session. My next one is Wed and it feels like an eternity away.
Sometimes I am scared of getting better, and when I occasionally do have a good moment or part of the day, I am scared and become depressed. I fear that if I show any improvement or am in an up-swing in one session, that he will think I am better and cut down to every other week or no meetings at all. But I am afraid that I won't actually be better and will need more help.
How often did you meet with your therapist?
