Beauflow, you have made SO MUCH PROGRESS!!! don't let this misunderstanding or whatever it is with this T set you off course. You're right, I think the county requires you to have a therapist if you're getting meds from them. Can you get on a six-week schedule? that's what I did for a while, saw t and pdoc at the same location, same visit. it wasn't ideal but it got me thru for a while. i'm not clear on what's going on, what went wrong. but from your other posts, omg you've gone thru so much in your young life. and if stopdog's T can recognize that the only time she speaks from the heart is when she talks about her dog, then talking about your dog is FINE - your T was wrong or blind! I was talking about a PICTURE of a dog the other day and my T understood! Well he IS a dog person. Apparently that T is not. Fire her! and thank you for posting to my birthday thread, that was very sweet!
