I consider that friend a close friend and I feel awful he hasn't lucked into a good therapist. Ex T and T thought T would be a good match for him too...

And my other friend with DID who sees T? (I like them too, they're very kind and cool and brave) I reminded them to please not talk about them therapy to me...in ANY depth. They've only mentioned shallow stuff like "T was fierce!", "T looked dang happy to see me" (even stuff like that TRIGGERS me) and I told they before not to but they still does mention stuff...

At least they aren't mad with me that I told T they have DID...
My mood swings used to be pretty bad,it might sound stupid but I would really recommend the app Calm to help focus on your breathing right now.

Post away if it helps but I have a separate and private twitter account just for me for moments when I need to get things off my chest.

I'm sorry if I sound harsh, regardless of if ex- T and current T thinking it could work- theory and practice are often different. there's other T's he could see and there is no guarantee he would even click with your T. I don't see why you should have to deal with the added pressure of censoring yourself in sessions when you're supposed to be able to be able to talk freely.

I would just ask your friend to stop talking about therapy with you, as it seems they're not able to respect your reasonable request.

Thanks for this!
