I'm also from the mid-Atlantic part of the East Coast, but don't want to be more specific than that because I've talked so much about my T's on here.

the chance that anyone on here knows your T LT has got to be like .001%.
Thanks for this!

Since this is an English speaking forum and I'm from a small random country in Europe where English is only spoken in school, I'd highly doubt that somebody else on here sees the same T as me (also I'd really be bothered if I would read of somebody who sees him as well, I like to live in my fantasy world of 'he doesn't have any other clients').
Thanks for this!

It would be weird to have somebody post here that has the same T. Through work I knew of a couple of her other clients. Obviously we never discussed it nor did I talk to any of my clients about it. Twice though T did called my unit looking to speak to the inpatient clinician who was working with her outpatient clients. When I answered it was awkward for a moment. We spoke on the phone just like we would had we not been working together. We didnt acknowledge each other outside that professional role.

I doubt I would recognize if someone sees the same T as me. Unless someone physically described her or said, she wears black flowers in her hair. Kit

I wondered briefly if @velcro003 and I had the same T because they sound similar and have the same birthday, but we don't live in the same state. So unless she's commuting really far for therapy...
Thanks for this!

Oh I agree--they'd have likely figured it out by now. Or else my T (or ex-MC) were so different with me compared to other clients that they wouldn't have figured it out.

I did suspect Echos's T was mine too , but he's not. Very similar though.

I talk about mine a lot too.....so what. If anyone wants to know who mine is just private message me. I have no problem having the same T as mine. He really is helping me and I hope you are getting the profession help also to help you heal and so be it if it is the same T as I. I am not jealous or territorial over him. I want him to have lots of clients so his bills are paid and he can take care of his family so he does not have to close his practice and go back out to work for someone else and then I would not have him.

My main concern is that I've shared personal things about them here, like ex-MC's wife dying, the fact that current T's son may be on the autism spectrum, that they might not want their clients to know. Because either thing was told to me directly by ex-MC or T (it's complicated).

I have always been happy when I have other people I know saw T. I knew she was amazing so I was glad to know others were benefiting from her skills. It was weird though reading posts on Fb pages set up in her memory and reading posts by a good number of people who had seen her over the years that I knew and was friends with. The Joy's of living in a small community.

I do worry a bit about posting info in who my Ts are because I don't know who is reading and it would be awkward if they themselves read it.
