Oh wow, I really relate to the idea of feeling paranoid about my (now ex) therapist "not existing" outside of therapy. I blame her for this, though, because it's not an experience I've had with other therapists, previously or thereafter. She had a chronic illness, which of course I empathize with, but it also made her extremely unreliable. She actually completely ghosted me due to her illness two different times. Like, overnight she just ceased to answer any phone calls or texts or emails and apparently couldn't be bothered to even ask her supervisor to follow up to let me know what was going on. I never took it upon myself to drive by her house or "Facebook stalk" her, but I did start regularly Googling obituaries under her name, seriously wondering if she had possibly succumbed to her illness. Talk about distressing and damaging. The first time I finally heard back from her months later, and the second time, I waited for months before giving up and starting the difficult journey of searching for a new therapist. I will never put up with that from a therapist again.
