Please don't let her talk you into believing that everything is your fault.

You are not bad.

You should be free to ask any question in therapy. If you wonder if you have this or that syndrome, you should be able to discuss these things in a healthy therapeutic relationship.

I have been where you are...and a previous bad PDoc tried the same strategy with me. I was blinded by my positive feelings for him..and by believing that he was the only one who understood me.

I genuinely am concerned for you, Gen.
This is unsettling! I had no idea the t was doing that. i'd be worried too.

someone else mentioned DBT (sorry still figuring out forum stuff). I do DBT for depression and that's kind of why I went with recommending figuring out how to cope with it and re-process and that kind of stuff. the core mindfulness skills are fantastic. i had an off session with my t last week and had some trouble and found a lot of the skills super helpful to get me through the emotions i was feeling.

i'm kind of a dbt nerd though
