I understand exactly what you are talking about. The last time I was inpatient the admitting nurse asked me if I had ever had childhood sexual assault. I said yes and then she started probing and asking for details of what happened. I have never talked about this with my T or my pdoc and I felt violated. I received no counselling for CSA while I was inpatient so I asked in group therapy one day why I was asked for detailed information when the information was not related to why I was admitted and it was distressing to talk about it. The group leader said it was inappropriate and I should not have to discuss it. I at least felt validated by the group T but I still was left dealing with memories I had shoved far away.
