Thank you for this, it gives me hope to keep going.

We had really similar situations with bad therapy and it is SO damaging to any kind of trust. I think that fear of getting attached is even worse than the one of not clicking with a therapist. I think you should keep fighting, but holding back a part of you isn't a bad thing. I don't want to ever trust the way I did again. It's dangerous.
Thank you, I wish you a lot of luck in your program. I really want to fight and I don't want to give old T any power over me but trust again is so difficult.
