I'm sorry to hear that. it sucks, I know. I was with a psychiatrist for six years! even after I had to move several hours away, I still made trips to see her. then she closed her private practice to go work at a VA place. like you, I was heart-broken (not really the right word but you get what I mean).
I've tried psychologists, therapist, social workers, whatever you want to call them - none have worked. so I'm just on my own, for now. that doc was maybe the best 'treatment' I ever had for my MI. and since her practice closed, the 'will to keep fighting' just isn't there anymore for me. (almost like she was helping me in more ways then I could understand at the time)
and I'm a strong introvert, with trust issues, so it took a lot of time and patience for her to get me to open up. in fact, she would have her assistants allow for extra time for my appts, mostly cuz of the traveling I did just to get to the appt. but at our last appt together, we talked for like two and a half hours. (and you wouldn't believe the story behind how I ended up finding her)
anywho... my point being, keep trying or fighting while you still can. maybe ask around to see if there is another person similar to the one you had, you know like personality-wise. (or whatever characteristics you liked about that therapist)
and most importantly, hang in there!
