So, the timeframe is up for x-pdoc to respond and he never did. I mean I'm really handling it quite well. Just feel completely rejected and loser-ish for even send the letter. I mean absolutely no curiosity in how I was doing. He completely blew off the requests like I never wrote the letter. I just keep telling myself I am strong enough to handle this maturely and spiral not at all. The whole thing just hurts!

I know how you feel.

How did you send the letter: email or snailmail?

I'm sorry he didn't answer. That sucks.

I hope that after the emotions all settle down, this works to give you some closure from him.

If he can't be bothered to reply, then he's not worth your time.

I know it still hurts a lot though. It's just disrespectful to ignore someone.



And you are strong enough. You've been showing yourself and everyone else that for a few months now!

Thanks A Red Panda! I know logically he's not worth my time if he can't reply. However, there is part of me that wants to tell him all he missed and is going to miss out on...just out of spite.

You are exactly right! It does still hurt. Part of me wants to curse him for it! But I guess that's what I get for sending the letter...the coldest shoulder ever! I should've known better!

I know I'm strong enough. That's why I'm choosing the high road and NOT doing the things mentioned above.

I DESERVED MORE THAN TO BE TOSSED ASIDE LIKE GARBAGE! What a rude, disrespectful doctor(man) he is. I wish I could tell him that to his face.

The real growth: I don't want/need to hurt myself because of him!! Yippe!...for drastic progress!

Thanks Granite! Yes there was a time I couldn't see all of this. It is nice to know that my health providers aren't central to my wellness...I am. They are merely guides and disposable at my discretion should I choose to find a new one or go it alone.

TRIGGER WARNING: VIOLENCE

I'm guessing Ts and ex-Ts always read whatever you send them, even if they don't reply. And that would be especially true of emails.

The reason being, buried in your letter might be an explicit threat of violence towards yourself, towards T or towards someone else. If you were to follow through on that, the police would check your outgoing emails as a matter of course. That would put your T in some pretty hot water. At the very least, they'd have to go on the witness stand and explain why they ignored such obvious warning signs. There would be a media circus and hate mail, to say nothing of the guilt they would feel.

Just my guess.

Growing up is so hard. The urge to spew venom on him in a latter is really strong, but I keep telling myself while he may "deserve" it in my mind doesn't mean it's the right thing to do. Ugh!!!

It might help to write that letter but not send it.

Here's the nicest letter I have written:

X-pdoc,

I strongly disagree with your decision to decline for a multitude of reasons, namely...the changes: physical, mental, and emotional that have occurred since the termination. Since you showed your true colors in not responding at all to my letter for reconsideration...I have to say I am rather relieved you know absolutely nothing of who I am today. However, it also satisfies me to know I can cross one person off "The Prospective Psychiatrist" list in my head. With that I bid you adieu.
