I have been thinking about stopping my therapy for a while. I have been only going for three months, but I feel much better. My life is much more on track, and I have had the longest string of "good days" than ever before in my life. I still have things I am struggling with, but financially I can't really afford to go to therapy. I have a teenage daughter who has been showing self destructive behavior, and I think that I should be spending the money I spend on my therapy on her.
On the other hand, I really am getting a lot out of my therapy now. I really feel like I am tackling some issues that have been haunting me for a long time. I guess I just worry that if I do quit, then I won't be able to handle it. I don't want to go back to feeling the way I did when I had my breakdown. I just don't feel confident that I can continue this way without the therapy.
Any ideas you may have would be greatly appreciated

((((((Sara)))))), I know you are dealing with a lot and your daughter certainly sounds as though she needs help, but I am not sure this is a good time for you to stop your therapy.
