My first therapist didn't believe I was bipolar, even though she knew my pdoc had diagnosed me with it. She thought that I LIED about getting episodes of depression. I was like, "Why would I lie about something like that...?" She seemed to think she was a doctor, even though she clearly wasn't.
Sometimes therapists are just ignorant. They think they know everything and they're skeptical about what you say. I hate those sorts of therapists. Those are the worst kind.
Sorry that you're going through this. Sounds like your therapists are also skeptical, and for no good reason.
