You seriously insulted your therapist by saying that, by the way. NOBODY goes into it for the money. It's too hard.

It wasn't meant to be insulting, we were having an open discussion. I think I even said the [name of the private clinic] makes money instead of personally to the therapist. It was a private clinic, not a public one and it has cost me an enormous amount of money. I think they earn a bit more than a T in public health system.
Besides that, I suppose a therapist should resist insults I mean thats something subjective and things that they are somehow prepared. I mean how about a T session with a real narcissist.... We don't feel insulted if it is not the truth right? Or if we are strong enough and have enough self esteem.
But this is completely off topic, it was about hidden narcissism.

They should not, but sometimes it happens. Or they wrongly diagnoze one with NPD while he is BP. With disastrous results....
