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.

or maybe if we can think they dont care it wont hurt so much when we find out its true... because after all ... who could care for us - we distance ourselves from the ones who show compassion because we are not used to it - dont know how to handle it - much easier to switch off and treat ourselves like some kind of germ on a plate - sorry prob shouldnt be posting tonight JMO - ok - take care all
