I would like to learn more skills and techniques to take control of this illness. I was seeing her for three months before my hypo stint and it was the same thing then with her. Perhaps I should switch T's? Perhaps I am not asking the right questions? What has your T suggested to you that could help others with bp?

I say if she's not a good fit you should switch.
I personally cannot stand the "happy puppy rainbow" therapists. If you just think about happy puppy rainbows everything will get better! Yeah, well that may work in your delusion but it doesn't work in mine.
She sounds more like a T for those people who don't have actual mental health issues. You know, the ones who just want to be "in therapy" because their mom didn't cut the crusts off their bread when they were in high school....

The ones who see being in therapy as some type of status....
That's why I prefer a psychologist to a therapist. That's just me. They have more training into the actual workings of things but didn't finish the med-school MD part.
