I started seeing a therapist for anxiety around last September and while I honestly didn't find it that helpful, I genuinely just enjoyed chatting with my therapist. We were around the same age and had a lot of interests in common — at a certain point I felt like we talked more about, like, books and philosophy than about my personal issues. I recently had to stop seeing my therapist because he moved to another clinic that's quite far from me, but I find myself wishing we had met in a different context — I'm ready to move on from therapy for the time being, but I'm going to be deprived of enjoyable conversations with someone insightful, witty, and knowledgeable who I came to be quite fond of. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
