I can't believe she called me in. The only additional information she had was that she didn't think he'd be coming back.
At first she was going with the fact that if he was able to make a phone call, he could have written a couple of lines to me. That it wasn't unreasonable of me to feel rejected. That it was his choice. After I went into strong hysterics, she backtracked a bit and ever so slightly led me to believe my guesses weren't wrong, and even said he might call me some day. But how can I trust anything she said when she was trying to get me safe enough to leave.
What kind of therapist is she to think "he's not coming back" and "he chose not to call you" would be beneficial. And " lots of therapists seem to do things like this."
I wasn't overly nice. I asked her to quit the therapist speak, when she was reflecting back what I said, or naming my quite obvious emotions. I told her I didn't want a hug. I don't think I so much as shook my therapist's hand for the first five years of therapy. I hate social hugging. Why would I want a complete stranger to hug me.
I don't think I can hear things like "you are feeling upset" without having to suppress a rude "ya think!!!!"
