She also mentioned being "together" one more time before she leaves. I don't think that's a good idea for me personally. It will probably just keep me attached.
It will absolutely keep you attached. I can't imagine that being a good way to say goodbye, and if you don't think that's a good idea for you personally, then listen to yourself.

In the past when I had anxiety, I would talk to W about it. She was there for me. I won't be able to go to her for that anymore so I will have to rely on myself.
My W not being the one I could rely on to help me through this was the worst part for me.
The good news is that relying on yourself is a good thing. The BETTER news is that you have more than just yourself. You've got friends. You've got family. You have the people that inhabit this place that, while they aren't really friends, at least understand where you're coming from and want to help you and be there for you.
Hang in there, T. One foot in front of the other. Do that enough times, and you'll find that you've ended up where you're supposed to be.
