that is what i figured. i have had this issue before with another therapist. she told me that she was pretty clear that the worst i would ever do to her was call her some names and walk out the door.
my current therapist thinks that i think i am capable of doing something that is far more ugly than what i rally am capable of.
im not sure how she knows that. hell if i was a therapist id be scared if a client told me they wanted to beat the crap out of me.
but the truth is, i think i make it out to be worse than it is.
when i told her i was filled with rage, it was very uncomfortable and scary and im afraid of it and what it would lead me to do, she explained that it was pretty normal given the nature of the things we have been talking about.
additionally, the stuff about her not giving me information, i can live with that. i think its true what she says and what other posters have said, its more important to find out why i need to know.
and of course, if this comes up or escalates, i will do what i need to do to find a new therapist. however it seems to be on its way to resolution, the rage.
