First of all, thank you all for you thoughtful and kind posts. It really helped.
Today I had a session (because she wants to implement the 1x/mo thing gradually). It actually went okay. I was able to express my sadness, hurt, and anger (which is a hard thing for me!) I even called her on the fact that she waited until the last 10 minutes to drop the bomb on me. She appologized profusely, which felt good.
Interestingly, when I was freaking about the 1x/mo thing, she said that we shouldn't focus on that right now, nothing was "set in stone." On one hand, I was sooo relieved to think she might be talked out of this. On the other, it made me even more angry that she put me through this for something she wasn't absolutely sure about. I didn't bring that up though because I didn't want her to change her mind about the not set in stone thing.
So, for the immediate future, we are just going to cut back to 1x/wk and we'll see from there... I'm still anxious about what the future holds, but I'm generally feeling less stressed and depressed than last week.
Thanks, gang!!
Best,
EE
