That is an unbelievable thing to say. My therapist can be a dolt at times, but I'm not sure even he would say that.
I'm not excusing him at all, because there is no excuse. But maybe his mind was deranged by whatever caused his upcoming EKG? Maybe he was angry about that and spewing nonsense. Or... How did the previous patient die? Maybe he's feeling really defensive about that. What he said sounded self protective almost.
Not that that's any excuse to hurt you. It isn't. It can't be. But people hurt each other. Even therapists. My therapist has hurt me badly lots of times, because I left myself open to him to be hurt.
It's not ok. Sometimes it just *is*.
