For some of us though, there have been times when we have been completely unable to take care of ourselves due to the severity of our condition, so our T's and pdocs absolutely have had to step in as caregivers. If I am unable to take care of myself due to the severity of my mental health, going to a T or Pdoc for that support makes complete sense to me. Again, personal context. People's experiences are quite varied.
