I have noticed over time more often that my therapist interrupts me and I feel "cut off". As I come to talk about very emotional things, i feel I just want to finally "tell!" someone my whole story and have someone listen intently and give some reaction, but so, that I can go right on and donīt get thrown off track. My therapist likes to talk herself too, and gives a lot of advise and cuts right in. Sometimes itīs helpfull, but with this stuff, iīd like it a lot more if she could be calm and just WANT to listen and be interested.
When she keeps interrupting or ,with a question, changing the subject on to something else, I feel that what I have to say is trivial and she gets bored by it. I feel that just telling this to someone and with a -short- reaction by her have it had placed into the world and out of just my head, makes it more real.
I know people are going to say: well, just tell her that you donīt like it when she interrupts. But I feel like a student telling a teacher how to teach or a patient telling the doctor how to treat her....
