I live in Canada, so I don't have to pay (not directly - we all pay for healthcare through taxes) my psychiatrist, and no one can cut off the payment for sessions.
I need to do this right. I don't want to leave feeling that in doing so I am contradicting what I learned there, or in any way negating it.
I try not to lie to him anymore. Lying to him is like lying to myself, and I try to avoid that.
It is my knee jerk reaction to just drop it, and not go back, but that brings old, bad feelings. The point of therapy was to learn new habits, better habits.
I'll look into the book - when to sy goodbye... Thanks for that.
Thanks for all.
Yes, I know termination has been discussed here, and I know how tedious it can be to cover old ground, but hopefully it is as helpful to some others as it is to me to talk about it.
Thanks again. I cannot express how very much I appreciate all of your words. Any other thoughts would be equally appreciated.
