R: Yes, I really don't know if I ever would've been able to trust a therapist again, if my doctor hadn't stepped in to see me weekly. The fact that she was treating my body AND my mind, and then, I guess, my heart, was the thing that allowed me to give the staff at inpatient a shot. She was like damage control. But I do find that, ever since, I've been hyper-sensitive to avoiding triggering my T's -- even when the worry is unfounded.
I'm sorry that you've gone through similar stuff. You said that a T sparked an AN episode. Do you find that you react to your T's mood, words, or what you think of your relationship together, with symptoms? I can't seem to help it - I assume it was connected to the first lady. I mean, I'm getting better at not reacting that way, but it is still hard for me to think of a "seperate-from-hospital" T as an ally, when it comes to ED stuff (even when they genuinely are). [I don't want to get too into ED stuff here, but I've always wondered if others are similar]
Thanks for sharing about identifying.
