Thanks for your suggestions. I guess I am feeling ambivalent right now because the goals that I went into therapy with has been resolved. The termination/separation anxiety issue surfaced from the transference, reliving an event that occurred in my past. Since I did not specify that working through this anxiety of becoming attached and then separated a goal for me, I sort think that it is unfair to ask me to work through it. I can not exactly leave now either since that would just compound the trauma. The sensible thing to do of course is to recognize how uncomfortable this is and then live through it. I do feel like I am at a critic point and the idea of either exiting now or to keep going deeper into the forest are equally appealing to me at this point. But I think in my heart and mind, I know what is the sensible thing to do. Thanks.
