What kind of support would you like from your therapist? I'm sorry to hear about your problems with your university. It feels rotten when you don't feel supported too. Is it possible that your therapist was trying to get you to find ways to cope and to be able to function in school? Therapists can coach you and encourage you, but they can't do it for you, and they can't be your primary social support. Their job is to help you not to need them, so they will help you learn to find support in other relationships and learn how to manage your symptoms yourself. It's hard though, isn't it? I wish that my therapist would be more supportive a lot, but she is trying to get me to learn to have confidence in myself and not depend on her for things I could do myself.
