I'm not sure why but the trigger that initialises the script is when they ask a question and I tell them about how I'm not interested in socialising or interacting with other people, I am just here to treat my depression. What is so WRONG with that?? Don't different people have different preferences in life? Is it a crime? They never told me being unique was a crime at school. They said the opposite - so why do I keep being punished for being unique?? The mind boggles!

The reason they're all following the same script is that it's a proven aspect of human beings that we all need emotional connection to other people. I know, I know - I thought I was an exception to that too. I spent almost 3 decades without close relationships with either sex - romantic OR friendship. However, through therapy, I've discovered that I am NOT the exception. I've been unable to let people get close to me so I decided I didn't need any of that intimacy crap, etc etc. What bs!!!! It IS a fact - I just had to rationalize the whole thing because I wasn't capable of it.
So when you say that you don't want any interaction with other people but just want to treat your depression, no wonder T's make a face. Has it ever occurred to you that part or a lot of your depression might be due to the fact that you don't want interaction with others, and it's going completely against human nature? I don't know the reasons for your depression, but I think I understand why you're getting that reaction from T after T. You can keep switching T's, but I don't think you're ever going to find one that says, "OK, kazzaX, every other member of the human race needs closeness with others except you - you are the only person on the planet who doesn't need other people!!! So let's tackle that depression, what say, and just leave other people out of it."
People like us have a major problem in that area, and eventually we need to realize that in that regard we're just like everyone else. But we're handicapped and it's a lot more difficult for us than other people. It comes naturally to so many! Not fair!!!!
Sorry to ramble - just my opinion, which is free, and you get what you pay for.

I wish you only the best if you have to end one T r/s and find another one.
