I'm sorry sweety, but nobody wants this label applied to them. What is her specialty? Is she a trauma specialist? If not, maybe you are right. Have you a second opinion? With something like this though, it takes awhile to gain enough trust to lay it all bare. Maybe you or another picked up on something that didn't feel right?

Anyways, welcome to PC!

We as a class of people have endured so much pain since the beginning of life that we are lucky to be here. On top of all that has happened to us, we now have to deal with this, but because of this, we are survivors of the trauma and abuse caused upon us. This does make it hard to trust anyone. For therapy to work, T shopping is probably a thing to do to find one that you feel comfortable with. Other than personality, also look at their experience as a trauma therapist.

I wouldn't pay too much mind to a label, but more to recovery. A rose by any other name is still a rose. We know the symptoms, the why, and what it takes to repair the obvious as much as we don't want to admit it. Unfortunately, going back to the beginning is a process it takes to heal.

When it comes to memories, our minds know what's real and what's false, so if I feel like a T was trying to lead me (you'll be able to tell), I got an other that isn't scared of giving the T a black eye, if not triggering the Angry One. Lol

Feel free to express here, it helps hearing others of the same like mind to get comfortable in opening up. I'm a quiet shy person, but I've become accustomed to opening up (maybe too too much) on here. I've figured out my system and how I relate to the whole bowl of fruit loops which has given me confidence in what happens upstairs.

I hope to hear more of you and your system hon, let the healing begin!
