I will add my story in short form:

I was in a DBT clinic in the public healthcare system. Things got sour between myself and my therapist and I had disagreed to sign a contingency plan that stated we could talk for no more than 5 minutes per session about topics of my choosing. I found this unethical and so I ended up leaving voicemails in anger and got terminated from the program. I threatened to kill myself and I was brought to hospital and told I had to do a psych assessment. I found this strange, as I had already done one to get into DBT, so I asked for them to prove to me who was asking for it.

A nurse printed a document that stated the program supervisor believes I am faking my illness, that I am a sociopath and apparently threatened their lives (among other things)! None of this was true.

I immediately threatened a lawsuit.

After being told I had a monster under my bed, that if I didn't do the psych assessment it would look like I was hiding something: I did the test. I passed with flying colors and proved this was all just rediculous nonsense, definitely intentional.

I got back into the program and they said not to order health records, that they would order them for me. I was also promised a copy of the document I had seen in the hospital as well as a copy of the psych assessment. I reviewed it for a second time and told them this is the kind of thing people file lawsuits over. At the end of the session, the program supervisor took the documents from my hand and said, "this is all about survival, you are too dys-regulated right now, you can have these at a later date." She also said I could have copies of the voicemails that had led to my being terminated in the first place.

After waiting over a month, I asked for the documents and voicemails. They met with me again and said they were unable to give me the documents and that I would have to order them through, "legal channels." I decided to ask for the voicemails. They finally said we could meet and I could get copies in the following session. When I met with the program supervisor, she said, "we have some bad news... We lost the voicemails." I immediately ordered my health records and after waiting another 30 days, they were altered.

During this entire time waiting, they were busy writing lies in my charts in preparation for a lawsuit. I thought I could trust them. They screwed me over twice. They particularly wrote that I had memory problems whenever I read documentation (convenient since I seen the original document twice) and that I was paranoid (convenient since they actually were colluding against me).

I left the public healthcare system and went to a private DBT clinic in the same community. The public DBT clinic knew of my plans to pursue private DBT.

After four months of working with my private therapist, I finally learn to trust her. At one point I tried to get into the public healthcare hospitals due to suicidal issues, but they didn't let me in because I wouldn't tell them who my private therapist was... Shortly after, my private therapist hires one of the people involved: it is the therapist who terminated me and who falsely accused me of these things. (This is the therapist who everyone else protected) I told my private therapist who all of these people were in our very first session and her defense was that I didn't tell her the therapists last name, despite the fact that she had warned me about hiring her... My private therapist said that if I wanted to continue working with her - that I would have to include the public therapist in consultations; which would essentially ruin all confidentiality. My trauma's had to do with their unethical behavior! She said she did not disbelieve me but when I told her I was scared she said my fear was unjustified! (She couldn't possibly admit to hiring a lion) My therapist protected this unethical therapist guilty of a myriad of crimes and corruption.

In the end, I left that private therapist and she ended up writing the same nonsense in my charts: that I have a problem with memory and paranoia, despite the fact she had said I had a good memory prior to hiring this therapist...

A cover-up that spans approximately 25 healthcare professionals in both the public and private healthcare sector.

I have left out a lot of details but trust me: the story is far more scary than it sounds.

Thanks,
HD
