I know you probably don't want to hear this, lost, but earthmamma is right. It is not a therapist's job to "fix" you. It sounds like your T is overwhelmed, and probably not just with you. From what you report he said, it sounds like he's "lost the plot" as a therapist. He is there to help you fix yourself!!

Does your T specialize in trauma work? It sounds like that is what you need. I also wonder about a short residential program for you.

I know you are young, and I would have scoffed at your age if someone told me this...but I'll tell you from my experience...you are the one who has to decide things have to be different. That is the #1 factor in healing from past trauma. Until I decided things could be different, nothing ever changed for me.
