I don't dispute any of that. I'm aware that some people have had painful experiences in therapy. I'm certainly not claiming that my experience is shared by everyone. I was just sharing it with East and operating under the assumption that it may encourage her IF she decides she wants to seek out another T, which it sounded to me like she was considering. Note that I used the words 'can' and not 'will' - she can go onto develop deeper attachments etc, not that she WILL, but it is possible. I I don't think anyone is going to feel forced into doing something they don't want to do just from reading a stranger's experience on an internet forum and therefore it was not unreasonable of me to share a personal experience in the hope it might help.
