Well, I'm not sure that he had much of a role in fostering my dependence. He discouraged it as much as possible the first few years, until he discovered that that just made me more clingy and needy.
On the other hand, in the last few years he may have encouraged it. But no more than many of our therapists do. (For example, he encouraged me to come in more frequently when I was in distress.)
I'm just hoping it's not a disaster. Low expectations are the key to happiness.
