Excellent advice from Lindenblute.
I'm sorry you're suffering so much, Elaine. I wish I could somehow magically take some of the pain away. I wish I could help more, but I can't get past my own feelings about your T. I know it's more complicated and more personal for you than the issue I get stuck on. My recent thoughts about that have been that maybe you can continue to meet with him, but that you two need to stop calling it therapy. And if you pay for it, perhaps you need to stop paying for it--and him stop billing for it, if that's happening. That way, you can continue with the relationship, but without the muddled confusion of calling it therapy when boundaries are all over the place.
Beyond that, "just keep swimming", as Dorie from Finding Nemo says. Sometimes that's all we can do. Sometimes that's all we can focus on is to just keep putting one foot in front of the other, taking one breath after another, etc.
Take care,
gg
