Possible trigger...

Regarding the T siding with the abusive parents (I may have posted this before at some time but in reply to the question)... He said he felt callous towards me when I told him how hurt I was by something the mother did (a severe rejection). I said that what she did was callous. It was. I don't remember what I said to that hurtful comment but he basically said he did not have empathy for me because I didn't feel empathy for my parents abusive actions. He also said I was not ''endearing'' and when I questioned that he said ''have you ever endeared me to feel warm towards you'' (with a snarl)

Huh. Well some people may think that is ''therapeutic'' to a survivor of childhood neglect and abuse but I do not...

I think basically he was frustrated as the therapy wasn't helping much and had maybe got somewhat stuck and he felt ''impotent'' and said so Until he said all these things I had felt the therapy was helping. This was a while ago now though. I now know that if I wasn't noticing progress after a certain time I would discuss it with the therapist. The other t saying they were a mess emotionally probably was saying they are human and that nobody is perfect. (my age, I don't disclose that )
