Your comments did not upset me either. I wss thinking about this thread, deciding if I wanted to add my two cents or not earlier in the day. Then I enjoyed the entire day with my family, came home, turned on the computer and read a few of the posts (not all by any means).
Often I think it is difficult for posters to hear what their therapists is trying to point out to them. Poster "V" felt her therapist was hurtful and when you tried to give her another perspective, I think she thought you were hurtful.
I liked reading your point of view.
I understand that V's therapist hurt her feelings. I have felt hurt by my therapist's words at one time or another. Often, it happens when my issues bump into something bigger, something I was trying hard to avoid feeling or untangeling or understanding. Often I learn from the experience.
I hope everyone on this thread stays and tries to learn and move forward
