I had one who demanded verbatim quotes and graphic details of examples of pretty severe workplace sexual harassment I experienced after wanting the 1 sentence summary.
He kept victim blaming me and saying "It's been so long, and you can't let it go? Stop being a victim and take personal responsibility."
Also told me he didn't believe me about certain teachers bullying me.
So I didn't tell him about any traumas because I knew he'd say the same crap.
Shamed me for shedding tears (after he asked me to describe stuff in graphic detail) saying crying is proof I have emotional regulation issues.
