In my opinion, it is inappropriate and irresponsible to tell Wiked that her T isn't good, that he isn't skilled, or that she should find a new one. There is not enough information to be gathered here to say any of that is true.

Also, I was thinking that you're T had no way of knowing if you were really safe or not. He just had your word to go on. But if a person is really intent on hurting themselves, they may lie to be able to avoid further treatment and carry out a self harm plan.

Wikid, I am not saying this was what you were doing. But how was your T to know that for sure? If he had allowed you to be released and you went home and committed sui. - how would he be able to live with that tragedy, and the knowledge that he failed you?

He made a judgement call, and erred on the side of caution to make sure you were SAFE. That is the sign of a competent, caring therapist. I wouldn't write him off so quickly.
Thanks for this!
