This thread has made me think, yet again about why I am so quick to discount my T's caring. When I am stressed to struggling with something I go into a sterile medical sign and symptoms only mode. I make it clear that I don't expect anything from her. I've even made statements like..."I don't know why I'm trying to tell a stanger these things." I think when I go medical or start treating therapy like it is simply some superficial medical examination...it means something. For some reason...I like to THINK that my T does not care and is not really invested in helping me.
