Therapist Leaving - Gutted

[Alibongo]

So had my lest session today. She agrees that a few months going it on my own is what I need to see how I manage. She thinks that the guilt I have is stopping me from moving on - thing is I don't know how to stop it. It's just there. I've to go back if I'm still having problems in 6 months and I have to go see the psychiatrist beginning of next year. Was quite sad saying goodbye. Guess my only hope now is medication :cry:

Not necessarily @Alibongo . You have this forum. We care about you and want to hear from you.

One step at a time.

I know this is a poor comparison given your situation, however, I had to go without my therapist for a few months and even though it was hard at times, because I had no other options, I had to draw from past experience. You will too.

I also don'the agree that you should have been pushed harder in exposure. I've never found that to be helpful.

I'm so sorry to hear about this. Again, it sucks is way too nice!

Thank you. I suppose there's no other option, just need to get on with it. And you guys have been amazing thanks x

I've hadupeards of twelve therapist in my lifetime. Awful.

The last one left over the summer. I felt gutted, too. I really liked her. But the new one? Actually a much better fit. I would t have known that otherwise; I don't think I would have left the previous one.
