Granite - I too have a bad reaction to the therapist's attempts at empathy (at least I think that is what she is going for). I usually react with anger, but sometimes great anxiety.

Something this thread has me thinking about is - I don't think there is a response that I would like other than "yea" or maybe "there there" - anything else is too much, over the top, horrible. I don't think I like being nurtured - it is awful. I don't have a fantasy of what good or tolerable nurturing would be. Maybe that is why I don't think of the therapist as being mother - lite. I don't want advice or intervention from the therapist either. Knowledge I am okay with.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
