And while we're on the subject, mini-poll time: what would you think, if a therapist trying to convince you had symptoms of x mental disorder says after some increasingly heated discussion, "and your other providers thought so too"? Asked why she would say that (especially given her low opinion of said providers), says she's being honest. It then turns out later that she is wrong about one of them when she consults her notes (as she tells me by voicemail). Is this as offensive as I think it is?

Additionally, it came across as manipulative: "this will get you to shut up and listen to me."

Hmm. I wouldn't be offended, and if this was the first sort of conversation where you were left feeling not good about this relationship, I'd urge you to try again and see where she is coming from. BUT, she seems like she lives in Crazy Town, so yeah...i'm sorry you are struggling with finding a good T for you.

Can she not just put down anxiety as the code? What reason would she have to put in a more stigmatized disorder (i am guessing) if the client didn't want it?
