Hey Crushed,

Nice hearing from you and thanks for the message! Responses below...


You said it, sister. As you know, losing trust in this one supposedly safe place blows. A while back dumping her would have sent me into a tailspin. Now I'm actually kinda happy that I don't seem to feel all that much. But maybe after I tell he we're breaking up I'll begin to reel--we'll see.
> I think the key point is that you said you've lost trust in her. That seems pretty crucial to effective therapy. And I kinda can see why you have. So I think dumping her sounds like it might be the right thing to do (oh, I wish it were as easy for me as it sounds like it might be for you -- although I know it's probably not supereasy for you, either).

I left toward the end. The only difference was, it was before *she* said, "we're out of time." She's almost always the gate keeper on that so the message was, "I'm outta here."
> One question: did you leave in the middle of the session?

I may. I have found therapy to be helpful but what a drag to see this crap from a therapist.
> Another: do you think you will get another T?

She was acting a little "off." The whole time. Too casual, too loose and judgemental about a few other things. Her thinking didn't seem as clear either. So the last time she did something like this months later, after I was really angry and hurt, she finally admitted she was messed up from being on a medication.
> A third: what's the significance of the olfactory hallucination part of the session? I think that's really interesting that you included that, but I'm not sure how it ties in to the rest. Just that you're spending time in your session on her sh*t? I guess that would make sense.

Eh, it's all a mixed bag so don't get too envious. ;)
> It sounds like you're in a good place. I'm happy for you (and, as is my wont, rather envious).

What's up with you, lately? How's your therapist situation?

Rigby
