....she just seems incapable of hearing me and she often interrupts. Well, she is not a therapist, so I should reduce my expectations of her. However, I think she projects and her consistent interruptions and assumptions have me boiling. She just left a message and I don't think I am going to call her back. I am angry about feeling unheard by her. I've listened to her probs and life story for years.
Okay....I do have a therapist I can vent this stuff to. I've just been holding out a bit cuz I have to pay out of pocket. So pissed off at not being heard when I have tried to tell best friend about how frightening some things on the news are to me. That was very important to me, but I really don't think she has the capacity to understand. She just interrupts and glosses over it by saying she watches BBC and relates some story from when she lived in Haight Ashbury.
If she doesn't have the capacity for something, then she just doesn't have it. Can't blame her for that. But I sure as sh-t don't have to return her calls and listen to her blather when I feel like this. :mad:
Just needed to vent. Thks folks.
