I don't think saying goodbye versus not saying goodbye is something that would really register for me so I don't have a good answer for you. But then I overanalyze many social situations so I can understand the stress you have from worrying

Thanks. Yes, thatŽs how it is for me, I feel hurt and it also makes me puzzled as she a couple of times has followed me to the door. What was that then? A bit of a better mood during that day? Hard to understand.
As she just loses when behaving like this I feel I get as ignorant as her, I "pay back" with the same attitude. For several times now IŽve although she has behaved in this cold or odd way, I have said goodbye, thanked her for the session and so on. As I know many T:s are more caring and more sensitive to these things I donŽt want to give her instructions. If she thinks sheŽll get somewhere by acting like this, fine. SheŽs working within public health care and by that it isnŽt that easy for her to just drop my case. I have really shown interest in this therapy, IŽve been cooperative with details from my life and so on. IŽll reply in the same way as she does. Quote:

Thanks. To me a T has to be consistent or else it shows a caring gesture wasnŽt actually caring if he/she the next time just ignores being caring. As for example, one time follow a client to the door and next without reason he/she doesnŽt.
I could understand if the session brought some arguments and then you donŽt feel you want to be caring. But if the session just passes like a "normal" one, then a T should have a routine to close a session in a good way. Even if he/she feels a bit down it isnŽt that demanding to take 30 secs to follow a client to the door and say goodbye in a nice way. |

Do you plan to talk to your therapist about this issue? This is a good opportunity to communicate something you would like to see to your therapist.

I don't believe you have to be critical. Next time you could say "I like when you walk me to the door, feels more caring" I know feeling critical is hard for you.

I can understand it if someone was trying to kill you, you might need to kill them to defend yourself. But otherwise, if you personally always have good manners, why would you stop having good manners just because somebody else is rude? Good manners would mean to handle the incident with good manners - like to ignore it if someone farts. You wouldnt make a big scene! Okay, people who know me are probably saying... really, una?? ![]() |
