She asked well what can I do about it...can I change how you feel? I replied no & nothing. Then she said ok then...isn't that what I said in our last session. So of course that response made me feel even worse.
Am I overreacting & being irrational of how T responds to what I say? Was insensitive to say that or am I wrong for feeling how I feel?
Anyways...what has your T said to you that just didn't sit right with you?

When I told my T. that I felt like everyone would be better off without me... He didn't say well what can I do about it... he got out a piece of paper and we went through the list of who and why they would be better off.. and he helped me see that it would not be the case... so yes there are things she could do... she could help you understand why you feel that way? She could help you learn other ways to express the pain.. Maybe she was wanting you to ask for what you need from her...whatever that is..
