I think keeping a list on my phone could work well for me. I had to stop myself from contacting an ex by telling myself she was no good for me, it took a long time but eventually worked.


That's a sensible idea to have a back up plan and it's also good self care. My ex t was very bizarre in many ways, at first I loved that about her too( just like new t) but after a while her unconventional ways really bothered me. They also hurt me, which was a small price to pay for an excellent therapist but something wasn't working anymore.



Thank you you didn't hurt me at all and I really appreciated your honesty. I haven't actually thought of a third t, I always limit myself and consider going back to ex t rather looking for a new one.
Because I am a t (in training) I suppose both ts have treated me differently and moved too quick, what they forget is that although I am a t in training, I am still a regular human with lots of problems, I am also hurt and in emotional pain. I don't need a friend or menthor, I need a good t!

Mona, you say that both Ts treat you differently because you're a T in training. I wonder about that. If you're seeing a T about your own problems, why should they treat you any differently than any other client? If that's the way it works, I think it's a poor system. I think if a T goes for therapy, it should be just that: therapy. My opinion, anyway.
Thanks for this!
