My therapist journey, over 20 years and over 20 therapists... I was completely open and honest (90% tbh). Most of them barely reacted to this specific concept, or we never even got around to discussing it, or they didn’t react at all about it. This thinking was not my primary concern for seeing the t.

My primary concern was a relationship/sexual issue with my h, and sometimes a relationship issue with my mother. But, I would not have gone to t because of her, only him.

This last t grossly overreacted. I ended up inpatient for a night and a day. She even told me that I had threatened sui, “said over and over that I wanted to die”, after the incident when she wanted to see me for another appointment. I asked her if my session was recorded for proof, because I distinctly said “I am not sui” loudly and clearly. So, no there was not another appointment with her.

Then I saw one last psychiatrist, one whom this t referred me to. Thank God I had the appointment with her, or they would not have released me from the psych ward for the whole weekend!

She said this problem with my h, which went on for 20 years, was HIS problem. And since telling him that, he has been so much better!
