This is the reply I received:

I felt sad that you were feeling upset about something that came from our session - not hurt by your email. I understand that uncovering things in therapy can in turn make people feel bad, but I definitely don't want to contribute to that based on something I said. I want to do my best to convey that I understood your position and will respect it.

I see him Friday. He is going to ask me what I want to work on then if I am not going to discuss my disgusting coping habit.

Therapy relationships are vicarious. I mean one session everything is smooth and flowing fine and bam everything can be turned upside down in an instant. I think because these relationships are actually with a stranger, one sided, even though you might be seeing them weekly for years. Still a stranger. The connection is paper thin that can crumble really fast. No skin off the therapist back. They can get a new client easily to replace you. I do not even know his wife's name. I know he has kids but damn if I even know how many or their names. I get thrown a bone every now and again when he has a normal conversation with me as a grounding technique.
