I am quite new here. I was having Cbt therapy for Ocd-which I have had for over 20 years. Anyway, my therapist was really good at helping me, ( I felt)but my therapy is ended untill November, (I am in Uk). Anway, near the end of my sessions this July, I felt attachment and feelings for my therapist. I was really worried, as this has never happened to me before. I checked out on here, what was going on, read about transfrence etc.. Then I phoned my therapist, and though was not sure whether to tell him, I did tell him. He was okay, but the week after it was my last session for now. I felt very nervous and unable to talk about How I felt. My therapist said contact me later in the year. And when I got home, I phoned him, and said, im all confused how will I cope? I need to talk through my feelings. He said, we need distance at this time. So he said, you can call me to let me know how you are.l I called next day and was quite emotional. And then he said he wud call me a week later. But I thought he was avoiding me, so called myself. and he said, how many time did you call? I had called twice to get to talk to him that day, and he was busy. I said sorry and felt awful. Later on that day i text that I will deal with my own problems as he is cross at me, But later on in the week, I phoned the office and said i was upset, so ignore the text I sent. then next time, I phoned to ask if my therapist will still help me on November( when I have therapy again). My therapist supervisor would not let me speak to my therapist. I was felt so upset. I am no danger to him. And she said I have called too much. This caused me alot of upset. And I have not been able to speak to my therapist and I really did start to trust him. Now My doctor has sent a letter on my behalf. Asking my therapist to still help me when I can have more therapy. I have not been phoning too much now, last time I spoke to therapist, she said write down that I dont need to phone them for reassurance. And I am trying to do that. So any advice you have will be most welcome. Thanks. |

I terminated with my therapist 20 years ago. At that time she broke my confidentiality and perpetrated lies that cost me, a therapist my license.
Three weeks ago I helped organize a dinner and public presentation. It tuns our, unknown to me, she was friends with the presenters, and, told them she did not want at the dinner; I was ejected from a dinner I helped organize. She then went on to talk about me, and make up descriptions that were not true, but scared our guests, her friends. She has continued to talk about me, even sent 6 emails to a friend of mine to forward on to me; unbelievable! I worked as a therapist years ago, correct me if I'm wrong but she has committed a breach of my confidentiality, and by emails forwarded to me, has also committed an invasion of my privacy. jamesellis |

[quote=DocJohn;25091]Well, I'm amazed we didn't start this forum earlier, as people seem to have many questions about psychotherapy, how to get started, how to find a new therapist, knowing when to end therapy, etc. etc.
most people - me included in the beginning dont want to admit they need help and it wont do anygood until there ready-as for me its saved my life. sue |

I need some support regarding psychotherapy? I have gone to therapy off and on for a lot of years and to a lot of different therapist. I feel that with the different diagnosis I have had throughout my life time, I would have done things differently. I also believe that at different times in my life and depending what was going on is how I chose my next decision as to what I needed to do.
I have a very good relationship with my physciatrist and have been with him for many years. We have worked long and hard for me to finally be on medication that is working great for me at this time. Being on the right meds was always a priority for my well being. My pdoc recommended some therapist that I have gone to, but I always felt that the medication was most important. When I started seeing someone for therapy I would go, but I never stayed long enough with one. I would go until I thought I got enough out of it and I would quit on my own without going back. But, I feel like I have missed a lot from not starting with issues of my childhood and really getting answers from what is the reason for my long time problems. I have always dealt with what was going on in my life at that time when I would see a therapist. When I got enough answers and felt better about myself I felt like OK I am done and that's how it was for many years. For the first time in many years I am feeling the best I have in such along time! I wish I could have understood what therapy was all about. I know I got a lot out of it, it helped me with the situations that I was going through at that time. Now with being older I wish I could have had therapy to understand how it has effected my life over the years. I still feel like I have a lot of unanswered questions to life, BUT it is too late and I should have figured it all out by now because as old as I am. I always felt like I needed therapy for what was going on at that time and never really got help for WHY things were going on because of how I was raised. I also feel like if I would have been taught answers to life's situations from reliable, responsible parents growing up and being able to depend on them growing up, I would have done things differently. To this very day I feel like I missed out on a lot of parental advise that would have helped me through life and instead of just living my life...I STILL DWELL ON MY CHILDHOOD and how it has effected my whole life and I still feel sorry for myself. At this time in my life I feel that it is too late or that I should have learned to let it go and not let it still bother me. Shouldn't I have learned this by now, through my life time to just let it go? Then why do I still feel like I do? I am suppose to be an adult at this time in my life.

Therapy has helped me to also accept when I am focused on something ("can't let it go") and we talk about it. We talk about it as many times as I want to talk about it. What happens for me is that I have periods where I get focused on the affection I never had, and wish my therapist could provide that. I know she can't, and we talk about the wish and she is so accepting and understanding, and with time, talking about it relieves the wish as if I am getting the affection, but in the way of attention and attunement and acceptance. I hope you are talking to your therapist about everything you wrote, because it is all so important - you are important!

I'd like to make the same request as springmetoday did-to join the group for those who were betrayed by their therapists. I couldn't find Syra's profile through which I can PM her. May be it's because I don't have 3 posts on the forums yet. Can someone help? Thanks.

I'm actually just really fed up with this whole psychotherapy thing! I find it to be really disturbing. I am conflicted against myself with it.
The thing is, it is all traumatizing to me..and so far it has been nothing but damaging. So who does one go to when damaged and needs support and healing? The fact is, it has been used against me, to only abuse me. I am abused by someone and called crazy by them. Telling me I need help. It all started when I was a preteen I guess. I was first called retarted because I was a witness of child abuse of my sister. The system was used to silence me. Then I went through domestic violence and my past was used to silence me, and my own depression was used against me to silence me. I went to domestic violence counsel and I became damaged from that. My spouse used that against me and they suggested I see counsel. I already have and I became damaged from that. I stayed away from this madness and severely traumatized. So I sought out a PTSD specialist...and that is quite damaging. So I tried to seek out a woman and another PTSD therapist and she sent me into a panic trigger attack, justifying my now messed up so called PTSD specialist...who is very uninsightful to PTSD and trauma. So I just studied everything out there...Even the DSM4 I wanted to find the damage they are doing to me. My speech is messed up, well in different ways for different reasons. ...but I realized some of my speech pattern is messed up from one hour sessions, squeezing my overwhelming cluttered mess into one hour sessions with people who don't care...and it goes no where. I feel like its like a transmission shop owner go to the Amish people and start telling about his stress with his work on transmissions. When to leave therapy???? I have been going through this for about 12 years. I never got therapy. What I got is more stressful messes on top of others... and no one to talk to or get any support or comfort from. ..and their just more things I have problems with. Which how can I even explain it all to even go to anyone...and if the next person is just as messed up. I just got another messed up added issue. ...and I realized...I don't believe in the DSM for some of it...that is not medical. I am judged wrong by therapists because their just trying to fit me under their false trendy labels. Saying the dumbest, unempthetic, insensitive things to me. Just because we suffer...doesn't mean we are stupid. Usually the problem isn't because we do not know what is going on, have knowledge or how to help ourselves. Its just that we live in an ignorant world, where people who suffer are not allowed to have a say or choice, and we are suppressed by the counselors and governing ignorance of the world. Forced to live continuously in this mess...telling us we are the ones who need help. I think everyone needs help...Yea I am in a lot of pain and trauma. Many say we can help you, and all I get is another needle stuck in my wounds, asking me....DOES THAT HURT...YEA WELL YOU HAVE A WOUND!!! You must of done something wrong!!! You just have to accept you did this to yourself. Here have some drugs it will help make it all go away! ...because the problem is all in you and the drugs will take it all away and cure you. |
