I started seeing a therapist (Betty) I had seen in senior year of high school, about 5 years ago. I had stopped seeing a different therapist (Deb) that I'd been seeing just a year or two recently but she didn't have enough time and I'd felt unconnected to her. When I told my original therapist Betty why I had stopped seeing Deb, she said that she had tried her best to connected with my but I didn't connect. Maybe I am the person who has a problem connecting.
I though about asking my psychiatrist about how connected he was with me, but I'm not sure I want to know. I feel connected with him, in the therapeutic sense. I felt an instant connection and he's been "with" me for 3 years now through numerous ups and downs and emergencies and talked me through the feeling that I was loosing my mind when I was ultrarapidly cycling.
I was really hurt that Betty said that, but I know I have difficulty connecting in every facet in my life, why not therapy?
