Struggling to Say Goodbye to My Therapist

Favorite Person. My favorite person is my therapist. I have to end therapy due to financial reasons in four months. My therapist is my entire reason for living. Anyone with bpd and a fp knows this feeling. I'm not eating, sleeping, functioning, anymore. And there is nothing either of us can do. I want her to hold me like she is my mother. My chest hurts just typing this. What on earth do I do?

      I feel this 💔 I have been devastated so many times by the crushing feeling of loving a FP while never being able to get the closeness with them I'm longing for. My therapist isn't my FP but is so important to me and it would devastate me if I couldn't see her anymore. Is it possible to cut back on sessions and possibly go once a month or two, just to maintain that support?

      Maybe you can keep her as your wisdom figure and kinda have a hypothetical version of her on your shoulders? If the only obstacle is $, there's gotta be a way to make it happen. I'm down to brainstorm!!
