Earlier on I contributed a brief entry to this thread where I spoke about my (finally) successful experience in therapy.

Reading through the subsequent entries this morning, it dawned upon me that I’d left out what led me to that therapy to begin with — the most awful, hideously painful experience with therapy through a major university. It was horrible. It was excrutiatingly painful. And though I tried for a time, there was no way I was going to be able to heal from that by myself

So what hapened? What HAD to happen? Just as the honorable Bud Fox has stated, I fell right into the arms of another therapist. Luckily she had a heart, and skills.
