I don't believe we are unfixable but I think we may be the ones who are going to have to do it - in a group, like this, of some sort, of others who understand and have been through it. Can't do it alone -- whatever "it" is, become myself, and relational, I guess? But people who don't get it don't get it.

I need more than this online group can do, though, and my in person group which had been so good for 6 years has fallen apart! It wasn't a "rehab" group, though, just good support and I didn't talk a lot about the deep stuff.

Feeling pretty hopeless right now. Called the emotional crisis line this morning for the first time in years. Fortunately I got someone who could listen pretty well, didn't get too offput by me. I have no real hope of finding a therapist who can help though I try sometimes in desperation.

PM me if you'd like to try and develop a self help group of some sort.

The ‘cut to the core’ comments spoke to how I was impossibly damaged and unfixable, condemned with no up side to that I can be taught and rehabilitated. I have no idea why a therapist would do that. It is the opposite of the definition THERAPY.

It was me who quit on all of them after a very short time for some to a year for a couple others. I had no feelings of attachment for them.
What do you hope to get out of the therapy/time with him?

I did get to feel the unbearable feeling of being rejected by my last T. So now I feel and know that, maybe, I was emotionally rejected by my mother. Which is unbearable., too, if I'm correct. Accepting the horror.
Where to go from there for relations and relatedness?

Maybe your T has a clue and a plan, in your case?

Therapist using wrong names of my family members, or insisting on certain theories and opinions that I disagreed with (and that were none of her business), like co-sleeping with my child.
