I can see the relevance of trust. I must be trusting my T alot more because there's no question I'm raising things with her I might never have talked about before. So the risks must feel safe...to a point.
But dependency and attachment are trickier for me to sort out. Of course I'm dependent on her -I'm dependent on her to be a certain way and respond in certain ways. If I couldn't see her anymore, I think I'd be devastated, but not necessarily because I missed her, maybe as much because I've got so much time and money invested in a process that to my way of thinking will have a natural end. If it came to a premature end, I'd feel a sense of waste and frankly I don't think I'd have the energy to start all over again.
