No communication....no sticking around. I've never been much of a door mat. I have spikes.

TR, your voice is important.
I hope you have a cozy blanket and a good book, and maybe a hot cup of tea.

TR - I don't know what happened.
I don't handle being "dismissed". I typically freak out and meltdown after leaving. It is not pretty. The thing with me is that is the feeling of being "dismissed" not that I was actually "dismissed" that causes this problem. Most often (as an adult), I am not being dismissed, I just take the comment as being dismissed. I can take the word "ok" or "fine" as a dismissal depending on the situation, what is being said, where my emotional investment is, the tone used with those words. T did it once and it led to our biggest rupture. We worked through it, it was hard work and I did have to talk about it. I know that sometimes I take these comments as dismissals when they are not dismissals. I don't know what happened for you, I'm sorry you felt dismissed. |

Being dismissed can be very triggering for me because sometimes i get flashbacks related to not being taken seriously, not believed, or the person is in denial and didnt 'see' the danger when i was in unsafe situations.

I feel dismissed from therapy whenever my T pushes hard for me to confide a really tough secret, I struggle and do it bc of our relationship, and then he is like oh we're out of time and the slushy kid in a hoody is ready to come in. It is like emotional whiplash. I am okay and feel less dismissed if the topic isnt outside my comfort zone. I like my T bc he gets a lot done, moves fast, pushes hard, while still being very empathetic and imaginative. Sometimes he just takes it too far - one time he said "you know, I can be. . . " implying a bit relentless. For the most part it inspires me, but here and there he misjudges imo and dismisses me in a state that is not okay t try and take back to work or out into the bright happy streets.

Well, it is fair to say that not everyone is compatible with everyone else. Still, when a T/P realises they are not the right fit for a patient I think they have a responsibility to refer them to someone more suitable. To just cut someone off seems unprofessional to me.
