I've wondered about that before; and met someone online on another site that has an ex-T of mine for their therapist and that was really weird

I wouldn't like this one little bit, because I might read the person's posts and compare how my T is with them and how he is with me, and they might do the same. I don't like the idea of T's other clients. I don't want to be friends with them. I'd prefer it if they didn't exist...
Thanks for this!

Me too. Old t used to sometimes tell stories about other clients and I would wonder if she cared more about them than me....

I aim to be more noncholant, more open-hearted, more secure, but I still have to agree with everything you said. Even though I know it's unreasonable and my T would still have a unique relationship with me if she had 30 other clients... I do worry when she occasionally sees someone else, and find it very nice indeed to be her only current regular client as she is semi-retired and we are very close.

So... I would prefer too, not to share with anyone I knew.

I think I can live with the other clients as an abstract concept but if they were on PC comparing notes... eek.

I've posted enough about my T so that I think anyone who sees her would recognize her. Sometimes I wonder how I'd feel if I would get a PM from someone who actually does go to her too. I wouldn't like anyone to get jealous because she has my artwork up in her office, for example. But I'd like to share stories about her as a T.

I agree with tinyrabbit (soryy, TR, i seem to agree with almost all of your posts!). I would HATE it if i found out anyone here had the same T as me.

One of my best friends went to the same T briefly. It was good and bad. It was fun to have someone to talk to about him. It was irritating also because he would tell her she was pretty, and he would go over time with her sometimes. At that point, he had never commented on my looks and had never gone over time with me. So I got a little pissy and jealous about that. Overall though, I think it was actually a good thing because it was really helpful for her, and led to good discussions between she and I, and T and I both.

I think I'd say cool and then immediately stop posting here for her privacy.

For the privacy of the other client or the therapist? I don't understand (and I am not trying to be messing with you and obviously you do not have to explain) how privacy enters into whether you post here or not unless it is your privacy.

The first two therapists I saw (one about 25 years ago and the other about 15), I knew people who had seen them.

The one I see now - I did know someone else who saw them but we did not know we saw the the same one for awhile. Our descriptions/interactions of the woman were very different.
I do not know anyone who sees the other one I go to.

Stopdog- t's privacy, I'd stop posting if I knew one of her clients where also here.

I already know someone (my best friend!) who sees my T and I have to admit when she tells me that T told her this and that, especially that T wishes she had 1.30hour sessions with my friend, it makes me feel almost jealous?

lol, idk on here. but a year ago, one of the people in the group home i was in had a girlfriend coming over, and she mentioned a few times something her T said, which was identical to what my T at that time would occasionally say, so i finally got curious enough to ask her if she saw the same T as me. and it ended up that we did.
