2) I had only been seeing this T for about 3 or 4 weeks usually twice a week.
She doesn't manage my meds, but she is always interested in whatever I'm taking for some reason. I mean, I had specifically told her that I wasn't feeling suicidal or depressed but I guess she thought I was lying!
The reason I brought this question up wasn't because I'm planning on taking some kind of legal action against T (I mean, I'm still seeing her after all this time) but because it has created a kind of trust issue with me. But I suppose she probably was just concerned about me...
Thank you all very much for the replies.

Hey,
I was just wondering who decided you needed meds and were you happy to take them at the start if they would possibily help? I ask because in the space of 6 or 7 weeks the meds probably hadn't even started working...sometimes they can take upp to 6 months to really have a positive effect and so for the onlooking professionals they had a woman with depression and social anxiety who was seeking help from a Therapist and who had taken meds for a few weeks and took herself off them without supervison (even though you said you had done it before)...this could have set alarm bells of for your T and even though you werent claiming to be suicidal or a risk to yourself, perhaps she seem the signs of depression in sessions with you? Iam just guessing.
I am glad to hear that although this affected your trust in your T that she must be good enouhgh at her job if your still seeing her now and that you must find something positive from her support
