I'm glad you like your new T. And I totally understand the feeling of being a science project. That's kinda how I view my group T, like we are all part of an experiment - but one that benefits the members as well as the T. When T and I had "the talk" about our therapeutic relationship, he told me that he finds me interesting and that my issues resonate with things in his own life. I didn't pry, but it made me wonder. Then again, I also figured that if he found my issues interesting, then he will be that much more interested in helping me.
