Yes, maybe the sessions will bring something out , or explain why I'm so numb by them. Do you think medications numb a person out to these emotions? I've been thinking about stopping them for a couple of reasons. 1. they may be impeding my progress 2. My Psychiatrist has really done some thing that makes me not trust her or feel safe with her. SO I can't go back to her. If I request another provider I have to tell why and she may lose her job and I don't want to be responsible for that. Not seeing her anymore would be the easiest way and that would mean I would have to stop the meds anyway.

medications.... in general for some people yes meds can cause these problems and for others no meds dont cause these problems. to find out if your meds are whats causing you to feel numb and impeding your progress you will need to talk with your prescribing doctor.
the psychiatrist doing something to you that could result in their losing their job.... um I think of this situation like this.... what happens if I keep quiet and my silence results in others getting harmed by the treatment provider in the same ways I have been harmed....
take it out of the profession for a moment...
if someone physically mentally and sexually abused me I decide I dont want to get that person in trouble and then a while later I find out .....After ..... this person abused me they went on to abuse children and other adults...
that would make me feel so bad because if I had told and the abuser investigated these people might have not gotten hurt. I would not be able to live with the fact that I was an accomplice to someone else being harmed through my remaining silent.
my suggestion is to consider contacting your locations licensing board for this treatment provider. ...if this psychiatrist harmed you in such a way that it can result in their loss of job, you are most likely not the only one. you reporting that person can prevent others including the children and other adults that are seeing this person from harm.
