Agree with you, especially when i think of my 2nd therapist but it feels like an addiction. Such power comes with the therapist being emotionally univolved and not disclosing more of natural humanly instict that are substituted with scripted empathy that it makes all sort of neediness surface!
I never wanted for anyone to validate my feelings or understand my logic more than the therapist because I know that irl there is a limit to how much people are willing to participate in such a one sided interaction and not have an honest emotional reaction to it.
