This and what Cinnamon stick wrote about being able to count on your T. Oh if I only could....but....I did and my T did a 180 degree turn around on me. He pretended to care, to listen to be there for me just to get my information to pass along to someone else!! Someone who was NOT a Therapist!! He broke my confidentiality, my trust in him and turned against me 100%. His actions cost me more than you can imagine, it cost me my reputation, it cost me enormous embarrassment and humiliation, countless sleepless nights, great emotional pain daily....and lots more but I can't go on.
I don't recommend trusting a T.
