Oh yes.
Maybe it is Rational Emotive, I'll have to look it up myself. But this idea that in 6 months-- last week it was 3 months (ask me if I felt rejected) I'll be functioning entirely differently in my life is just a little hard to believe. I really did feel rejected too, I feel like he's not even touching the deeper issues. He's just saying, 'Get a job, you'll feel differently, you'll attract different people', and that's all folks.
Well I guess he'll find out about me soon enough. If he's got some magic potion that can get me moving past a lifetime of emotional paralysis, he's some kind of wizard.
At least you like your therapist (and he likes you) enough to have stayed together for as long as you have. Personally it seems like those relationships are the ones where you can develop the most trust.
