How often do you go?

[Deadman]

I still go once a week. I'm not always sure it helps but it does help keep me from withdrawing from the world altogether.

Right now it's monthly. Has been for almost a year. Working on stabilizing my life. Once that happens? If I can afford it... Bloke wants to see me 3x a week for a couple hours per. But that's the future. So we'll see what actually happens then.

I go 2x per week and have for almost 2 yrs. It has taken me this long to reach the level of stability I have now. I have been toying with reducing to once a week but I am nervous about it as this summer may bring me to several significant changes in my life and career.

I went every week for about six months or so. Then I decided it was just so hard and challenging we switched to two weeks and it is so much better! Going on 10 months now and I still get nervouse to go. I think that will always be the case for me. If things get really bad I can get in earlier:)

Ok dont laugh.. So I think i have been in therapy for almost 6 yrs. I go once a week and i hardly ever miss. But my problem with my memory, i am really not sure. I guess to will need to ask him.

Well I have been seeing the same T off and on for the last 4 years. I was going consistently once a week since the beginning of the calendar year but, due to monetary reasons I am now going biweekly. It has not been as painful as I thought it would be :)

I've been seeing the same T - and the only T I've ever seen - for almost three years.

Most of that time we did weekly sessions. For a few months early on I did twice a week. Session length started at an hour then went to two hours then reduced to 90 mins.

For the last few months I've been doing an hour every other week, which is largely due to practicalities (i.e. money!)

If I could afford to go weekly I probably would because I find it a bit tricky keeping connection and momentum going. And I think it is also because I feel attached to her so I want to go and see her and talk to her and have my space.

But, overall, cutting down my sessions hasn't been as hard as I expected it to be. I still count the days between sessions but I think there was actually more emotional intensity and pining feelings around that when I was seeing her weekly than now.

It's actually quite nice not having to get on that rollercoaster and churn everything up every single week.

I used to go twice a week now I go once a week.

@Iamsensative I think it's also hard to remember when fearful especially, or triggered, or stressed out, or unwell, +/or with pain.
