I think that because of my phenomenology and my environment being single is not a choice, it’s a survival technique and t really has no idea or understanding because she has a family, a husband etc, etc.....

I think this made a difference in my therapy. I cant say for sure, but up until my current t, it seemed my ts could not relate to my hostile family situation. They were always like, so what? You dont know what its like to have no ground beneath you until you jump out of an airplane. When i found a t whose mother died when he had barely started school, i finally found someone who understood having the rug pulled out from under you. His was one major time, mine was multiple smaller episodes.
