I am sorry you are in pain. While the therapist isnt necessarily right about flipping out, it is her duty to protect the privacy of all of her clients and to protect them from other people in group. I am not saying you are dangerous but imagine if another client was sending angry texts threatening to talk to you about their anger or pain? I dont think yelling or losing your cool is an effective way of handling things but I can see how it would make her feel defensive. This is one of the reasons that I do not really think its fair to text and email a therapist whenever one wants and expect an answer. What you got was a reaction- but not necessarily an unexpected one.

Im curious- what were your motivations for this scenario? Did you want her to be compelled to answer you no matter what?
