Is it me? Yesterday she invited me to attend church with her. She started talking about sinners and how we are all sinners and that dog has a plan for us. I know I had this horrified look on my face. We've discussed spirituality before and I've made it clear that I'm not comfortable with organized religion, that when I visit my mum I go to church with her out of a sense of duty, and I know the tunes :-)
I ended up telling my therapist that it was highly unlikely that I'd be attending a church of any kind. I was amazed that she had suggested it in the first place. It felt intrusive and presumptuous of her. Am I being overly sensitive? Is it normal for therapists to offer spiritual guidance??I'm going to talk to a different T this morning. I'm worried about how to terminate the one I've been seeing. Do I just stop making appointments or do I tell her that she is freaking me out?
