Abby,

I've lurked on this site for over 2 years and when I read your post today I had to reply. I have no good advice but I want to thank you for sharing your experience. That is exactly how I feel about my T and therapy. I feel like it has just exposed how bad my childhood was, how miserable I am today, and got me in touch with the immense sadness and hurt I feel but it hasn't helped me deal with it. I see my T twice a week and I still feel misunderstood or leave feeling triggered and I sometimes give in and send angry emails or calls about things. We work through some of those upsets but it just keeps happening and I find each rupture more difficult to deal with. Actually my entire life is more difficult to deal with. In many, many ways I wish I'd never started therapy. I hope things get better for you.
