Yeah, therapists have their own issues. I have seen my therpist being less than perfect when I see him at the gym. I have seen him overreact, and even though I thought is was kinda of funny to see him do this. I know what ruffles my T's feathers, he has told me. In fact I know a lot of his faults, either he had told me or I have seen them. I think my T has a temper, used to smoke and do drugs in his earlier life, his parents had a bad marriage, he takes beta blockers to help with his anxiety with public speaking, has prostate problems, maybe even libeto problems, worries about his relationship with his daughter, worries about his health, been very poor while going to school, etc. There are tons more less than perfect stuff he has, just like everyone else. But I see a lot of his good things about him too. I have known some other T's and their life is just as messed up as ours can be. Thanks for your cautions, Dinah, I always go into situations with my guard up and my eyes open. :)
