I'm so sorry this is happening to you. I surely don't like the fact that HE dictates what you talk about, and you have to OBEY two pages of rules? There's got to be more to this story...... or he's a fruitcake completely!
What kind of rules? Aside from him "dictating" the sessions? Does he think you have an unhealthy/unsafe attachment to him and he is trying to distance himself from you?
Regardless of what's happening, and his reasonings for his rules, I think he could be handling things a bit more "therapeutically" than he is. Hugs to you! If you stay with this T, I hope things work out. But gosh...the word you used, "obey," really bothers me. I don't obey my therapist. I respect her boundaries, etc, but I would never feel the need to say I obey her. Is he being a bit harsh? I have not read your post mentioned here where he "terminated" you...I'll look it up.
Keep your chin up. If he's not "the right one," there is someone who is!
