I think you’re right that he might not be used to having people in his office that actually want clear help with a clear goal. Aaaand I also think you know he won’t be as good as your old T no matter what but I hope you’re willing to give him an actual fair chance. I’m not sure how to explain what I’m saying...maybe that you’re automatically a little “biased” against him bc he’s not your old t? Like you might look for things that are wrong with him? Not saying you absolutely will but I feel like that’s what I would do if I had to find a new t at this point bc I love mine so much. Just try to keep an open mind. Although it is ridiculous that he seemed to be clueless about your case, sounds like laziness to me.
As for the trauma, we have told you before that it’s ok to need help. I understand how hard it is, being a fierce independent woman myself. But you experienced a serious serious trauma. Not just a little thing. So, I really hope this guy can help you.
I’m sorry if this makes no sense:-/
