sorry you have had a bad experience with current t. From what you have said it appears he is probably trying to help in the way he knows how, but that doesn't seem to help you - which is ok. We are all different and find comfort and assistance in different things.

Are you able to write to current T about the concerns you have? I know from experience that a lot of the time, therapists are just reading the situation wrong but really do care and want to help. We all make mistakes and there is a possibility that he doesn't see how negatively this is affecting you.

If you believe you can't patch your relationship, I don't know how much you are up for it, but have you considered looking around at other therapists? I know meeting new therapists can be extremely hard, but therapy can go a lot smoother with a person who you actually relate to and understands you.

I really hope you can work something out While therapy isn't easy, it should be something beneficial and it seems that you are struggling to find the positives with it at the moment.

Good luck
Thanks for this!
