I apologize if I sounded like a whiney little girl complaining that no one could help her. Actually, it has been quite liberating to accept this fact. No more leaning on and trusting my T to be better "some day." If my some day is never coming, I want to get on with my life.
I've tried CBT, EMDR and an ecletic bunch of other therapies. My T is psychodynamic, humanistic, relationship-centered, whatever the situation calls for.
I can't imagine starting over with someone else. I have before, but my regular T has always been in the background, supporting my efforts. Even the suggestion of that is anxiety producing. Gee, I wonder why that upsets me so much. I guess I'm defensive of my T and hadn't really considered it. I've had several bad experiences with a few other Ts and there's no way I would put myself in that danger again. My capacity to trust is very limited and that's from experience and not a frightened little girl.
Now I'm mad, but don't know why. NOt at you, by any means, but you pushed a few buttons I didn't know I had. I'll have to think about it.
thanks for responding,
antigua
