Being financially compensated which provided the funds I needed for subsequent treatment that lasted almost 5 years .


The cons were being investigated very thoroughly...in interviews as well as them taking my computer hard drive. Also the fear of possible litigation and having to testify in court

Another con was the intense confusion and contradictory emotions following my report

The biggest con was never getting closure, never knowing the truth, the why

His wife divorcing him and taking their small children

The fact that he is still living life and seems happy ... while I am the one suffering and sorting the immense damage he caused me.

hey...sorry for reviving a zombie thread, but jDNA, I wanted to ask...they took your hard drive because there was a criminal case involved, right? I ask because I'm considering filing a complaint against my ex-therapist, but I'm sooo not comfortable w/ them taking my computer hard drive...

If the complaint was to the board and didn't involve a criminal matter, they won't take my hard drive, right?
