Hi Shar

There are different kinds of dependency.

For me, it means that therapy is more important than anything else in my life (except my kids, maybe). It means that I won't make a major decision without checking with my therapist. It means that I'll drive by her office (if it's not really out of the way) to see if she is there. It means that I think about her all the time. It means that I ask her questions in my head between sessions. It means that she is essential to my survival. It means searching on the internet for her to have some "connection". It means seeing that her opinion about something (i.e. my self worth) is more valid and important than mine.

For other people (but not me), it may include calling a lot between sessions. Or refusing to leave. Or waiting in the waiting room when they don't have a session scheduled hoping to talk to her for a minute.
