Exiting Therapy

Posted by B2Chica on March 10, 2011, at 10:58:15

So i'm finally ending thearpy.
Its' kinda scary but i need to do it someday.
its been 7 years.

I'm down to once a month and was planning on seeing her till may or june. but now i'm thinking i'm just prolonging the agony. so i'm going to make april my last session.

again, i'm scared but my pdoc agrees that it's time to stop. and he's actually one of the pdocs that spends time talking with his patients. i usually take 1/2 hour sessions with him vs the 15min med check appts.
anyway, he's happy to see me more often if needed.

anyway, its also a big issue of money. i'm so broke after that month long outpatient in hospital. the bills have been rolling in. i hate that everything is separate. i have hopital bill, pdoc(from hospital) bill, my own pdoc and my T bills all coming in.

anyway. its time.
************************************

other than being scared i have things to say
1)to my T. after dealing with all the past abuse (childhood) i never got into my teen years other than the rapes. i need to mention that i was in an abusive relationship for 3 years. as i feel that changed me alot.
so i guess i will spend my next to last session talking about that.

2)questions to you...any suggestions of what to talk about during Final session? i surely cant talk about anything triggering as "that's it". but dont want to really talk about 'ending it' cuz thats too hard. i want to end it like i will see her again. on as needed basis. kind of not a final goodbye.
but i also dont want to waste my money. any suggestions?

3)and last i want to post the things i learned in therapy. so i will post that separate. may be triggering for some.

4)oh ya. and i may be here more this summer, since i wont have a T.
THANK YOU!!!

b2c.
