At the same time, she was unclear about the boundaries from the beginning. At first, she told me she would think about being friends after therapy ended. She told me she loved me, she hung out in my dorm room, other providers talked me out of switching to a different therapist when I wanted to and was hurt by her (saying ex T was the best at the clinic). In the beginning, m dietician said that ex T loved me and when I asked her if it was more than ex T’s other clients she said yes (I don’t think she had any idea what she was saying). Ex T would pass me notes with hearts during groups. She did this all knowing my history with my previous therapist before her and yet, she still treated me special. When she saw I was taking it “wrong” she dramatically stopped everything (except the I love yous). I told her numerous times during group that I was suicidal but she never checked in with me.
I am feeling a bit judged by people on this forum. I feel like people think I just want to report her because she terminated me suddenly and I’m looking for revenge because of it. I already feel awful about crossing her boundary. I understand what I did was wrong. But can she take responsibility for her part too?

I'm still utterly flabbergasted that people here think it's some sort of criminal offense to ****ing drive on a public road. The way your therapist behaved by dropping like a hot potato is ridiculous and now that you gave more details it almost looks like an abusive relationship: one time your therapist loves you, gives you heart notes but as soon as it becomes too much for her (a situation entirely created by her it appears) and she feels it's getting out of hand boom! she's out and it's over. Really creepy behaviour on her part imo. On that basis alone, I'd think you have a case even though I don't know the rules about this in the US.
