Don't want to pile on, but I guess that's what I'm about to do. The cops coming to your house is an unfortunate consequence of playing games in psychotherapy. Your therapist can't read your mind. She can't afford to assume that you're not really serious, since she senses that you're still testing her. You wanted a response from her, right? Well, you got one.

Just because this kind of thing is a part of your pattern doesn't make you a prisoner to it. You can stop it at any time. Do you not see how it's manipulative? You want your therapist to treat you *special* by not canceling your sessions like she'd do with anyone else. Do you really think that's fair of her? Or you? You're basically telling her she can't trust what you say to her. That's dangerous, TC. She needs to be able to trust you just as much as you need to trust her.

She cares for you a whole lot. That's not something to screw around with. What she said to you through text sounds like something a human being says when they feel manipulated. I think she made a mistake by calling the cops, but I do feel sorry for her. I hope you can empathize with her situation.
Thanks for this!
