Both my T's have parroted back what I've just said, usually because in that moment they are attempting to be "validating" or, they don't wan't to challenge me in that moment/avoiding an argument. For me, the "validating" is annoying because anyone can repeat stuff back to you.

Thankfully, they don't do it often. But this is a big reason why I avoid crisis lines and chats. It feels like they are just mirroring anything you say. Feels like talking to the bottom of a well-- empty and echo-y.
