I just realized something, well I knew it for a long time but I'm putting it into words now, that I'll bet he triggers a lot of female patients into threatening suicide because they get so desperate for the attention he keeps flashing promises of.
So I'm wondering, who's sick, here? Him, or his "patients"? Maybe nobody, maybe it's all "transference", the big psychological term which has more than one meaning.. one of them is "excuse for inadequate behaviour from the professional side of a therapeutic alliance"
What an *sshole. I wish I could see him and tell him that. But it would never happen, he's not the type of person who responds well to criticism. I'm quite sure of that. He's very good at pointed self-delusion.
I wonder if he wears a wedding band, yet.
After so many years of marriage, he must have been married close to thirty years. How unprofessional.
I think I had a reason to fall off the sanity wagon. Maybe I should consider a support group. If it were important enough to me, I would. If I knew of enough women that this has happened to, I would do that. Perhaps even there would be a few therapists in town who would be wise and good and honest enough to support something like that. I doubt it, though. Most would, I suspect, sagely nod their heads and give some noncomittal remark which would be of no help whatsoever. Because quite frankly, I think I am talking here about a profession that has become completely paranoid and schizophrenic in its behaviour.
Maybe that should be a conference subect for the 2006 conference. Hah. Would it ever happen?
