What triggered this?
Do you talk about the people in your life?

It has to be biased because of the money, right? She wouldn't say something like "I don't find you a very likeable person" or "I could see how others might have a problem with you" to someone who is giving her money, even if it was true. I know I wouldn't!

How do you determine that she is not being "totally truthful" with you (besides the money)?
A good therapist would tell you the truth no matter what. Therapy isn't supposed to be untruthful. It is supposed to help you discover who you are so that you can grow and live a more content life. The therapeutic relationship can definitely mess that up at times but don't let that discourage you.
A lot of people don't know how to respond to people with mental health issues. So-called friends even disappear. Unfortunately, it comes with the territory. It is possible to find loyal and real friends again.

Are you asking for constructive criticism or for people to continue verbally abusing you to reinforce your beliefs? I'm not trying to be mean I just don't understand what you are asking.
