((((jyl))))
I would have reacted the EXACT same way you did to the teddy bear thing, I swear. I may have thrown the blasted bear at my therapist, and I'm not one for violence. And the computer error, I can't believe that he didn't try to ease your frustration with the situation.

How long have you been seeing your therapist? Could you try talking to him and telling him that you are confused about who has your best interests at heart right now? I always find it's best when I'm upfront about how I'm feeling in regards to therapy and especially my feelings towards my therapist. If I have a beef with him, it's best if I tell him about it and work through it.
I'm sorry you're having a rough time right now. But therapy should focus on what you want it to. If he wants to talk about things that you don't want to focus on, say so. Or tell him that you don't wish to discuss that right now. If he gets upset about it, then it's his problem, not yours.
But, are you sure that those "issues" are nonsense? I always thought some things were nonsense too, but it turned out they weren't...Sorry, just thinking out loud. Don't let him push you harder than you can be pushed, but at the same time be willing to be pushed a little, ok?

(((jyl))) I'm thinking about you. And if your meds are helping, tell your husband to kiss my butt. It may not be helpful to tell him to kiss yours, but you can always tell him to kiss Karen's :)
