Peejay I am so glad to hear of your journey and a happy ending. So often I lose hope about getting through this same situation myself. But your story gives me renewed hope. I too had a t that was in over his head about my situation. He was a catalyst for opening up pandora's box, and then he abandoned me on top of all that, thereby re-traumatizing me.

The new therapist has been helping me and I am making some progress. I feel like today was a huge step forward and I thank you for your support. I have spent the past who knows how many years unstable (probably since 2011 or 2010)... I am looking forward to getting stabilized one day also. I'm so glad you got many tools for your healing. You also have a wealth of knowledge about trauma which will help you and many others.

I can't say I relate to all of this because my first t really was a good t and very effective at helping me. This is why is was so frustrating he chose not to help me. I felt I was beyond what he could handle but he still did a good job if that makes sense. When he was present, he was extremely effective as a t for me. I will miss him for the rest of my life. I will move on from wanting him back in my life but I will never forget all the impact he made on my life (good and bad). I am angry at him too though off and on. For now I am at peace.

I'm glad you found a t that has been helpful and effective for you Peejay. It truly makes a world of difference in a person's life.
