    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Yes, I admitted it was my brain: (I know my brain is stupid.) But the thing is...he didn't ask me. If he had asked me it wouldn't be so upsetting. He knew all about this major thing that happened and that alone should have made him know without a doubt that I needed my Friday. Honestly...he...

    Bailing on therapy

    Ugh! I think all Ts have a blanket way to respond. This seriously looks almost identical to an email my T sent me last week. "I look forward to talking with you next week." "Do take care of yourself..." It's so aggravating!!!! I'm sorry this is happening. :(

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Yes, we had a clear agreement. He's never cancelled on me, but I guess he isn't technically doing that now....he's just replaced me. He called and said he doesn't want me working with someone else for my second day and that he would look at his schedule and rebook my Fridays but not for two...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Thank you. I'm just feeling very let down and hurt right now. He has said I can email anytime but I don't. I feel like my issues aren't important and this seems to prove that. I did leave him a voicemail and ask for a referral for the other day per week since he has given my spot two weeks in a...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    I didn't get to ask him about any of this today or give him copies of the emails. He was very focused on another particular subject. I thought "It's ok...I'll bring it up on Friday." Then he tells me that he doesn't have any openings for the next TWO Fridays. This really upset me. He knows this...

    Bailing on therapy

    I do not think you are weird at all! I think it was very honest and just...from the heart. I hope that when she reads it she will reply with reassurances. I know you said you didn't need/want that, but I think if she does you'll somehow feel better (?) about things. I know attachment is so hard...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Thank you. I've emailed the investigator about this and I will ask my T about it today. I want to make sure everyone is on the same page before I actually go forward. I think everyone is absolutely correct when they say that the investigator has all that she needs. Unfortunately they are...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Where did I say "they better figure it out on their own"? What I actually said is: That is not nearly the same as "they better figure it out on their own." It means that I cannot contact them as it could lead to a potential lawsuit so I hope they can see her for what she is. Did I not express...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    I have actually given this a lot of consideration and talked to my cousin about it because he's an attorney. He told me that there was no way she wouldn't know it was me and that given her craziness she would most likely sue me for slander. I can definitely see her doing that too. I just hope...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Yes, thank you, you are absolutely right! I know logically that I need to just let them take care of it and I know the investigator is doing everything she can...but on the other hand I worry because she said since she's not licensed yet, her hands are tied about disciplinary actions...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Thank you very much for your entire post. I really appreciate it! This is just so hard for me. I'm the one who has always been blamed for everything and it's so ingrained into my brain that now I blame myself for everything. But honestly...how did I NOT see her for what she was so much sooner...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    I'm not trying to save the world. I do, however, feel like I have a responsibility to keep others from going through this. Nothing has ever changed unless someone pushed for and made that change happen.

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Thank you all for your replies! I'm definitely going to show him everything tomorrow. Thank you, this makes me feel much better! Yes, orders of protection are available here but unfortunately this situation does not qualify. They said she has to physically hurt me and/or threaten my life on...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Thank you! I've been a lurker for a very long time but never registered or posted because of my shyness. I'm working on that! She sits outside my window and texts/emails me trying to get our relationships repaired. She says "I'm right outside...just come talk to me...you'll see I am sincere in...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Printing this is a great idea...I think I would panic and get tongue tied. :eek: Thank you very much for that suggestion! I don't know that it's full-fledged stalking...I mean she doesn't follow me or anything like that, at least not that I know of! I think she's just trying to intimidate me. I...

    Ex-t emailing me distressing things...do i tell current t?

    Hi everyone. I'm in a bad situation and I'm not sure what to do. (I'm sorry this will be long, TIA for your patience!) I've been with my current T for 5 months, I really like him and he has helped me more in this short time than all my previous therapy hours combined. He's wonderful. The...

    Have you ever decided not to see a therapist after the first session?

    Oh my. Run, and run fast! I've never known a therapist who didn't have their own therapist. My first T didn't see hers all the time, but she had one on call, always. My second T goes to hers once a week (she should go more often but that's a different story and I digress *sigh*). The T I have...

    Bailing on therapy

    @UnicornSightings You can and DESERVE to be helped! I understand your frustration over/with your current T, but please don't let this stop you from getting the help you need/deserve. Have you told her that you aren't going back? Can she refer you to someone? Maybe if she can refer you and you...

    What would you do?

    I understand the not wanting to start all over. Ugh...it SUCKS. I've done that about 4 times with medication managers and then finally just stopped meds altogether. My T is ok with me not being on meds as long as I can tell him every time I'm having horribly intrusive thoughts so he can help me...

    What would you do?

    Ohhhh. Yikes. I'm sorry. :( Have you told your T about that? The jealousy? Do you have the option of seeing someone different? Maybe your T can refer you? Sorry for all the questions, I know you're having a difficult time. I'm proud of you for posting here and not giving in to those...

    What would you do?

    Well done! You made a great choice!! Why are you unhappy about talking to your Pdoc? I think it shows a lot of strength on your part to talk and reach out! I hope your T gets back to you soon. :tup:

    What would you do?

    Hugs if you accept them @FauxLiz :hug: I think you should definitely reach out! He has given you the number and had you promise to contact him. It will only make you feel better. Does just hearing his voice calm you? Please don't self-medicate! I understand the want of doing that...I have this...

    A few random therapy questions

    1.) My first two (female) both stalked my Instagram, Twitter & Snapchat (I don't have FB). I say stalked because they did it without my permission. My 2nd also stalked my family. :bored: My T now, a male, has looked at my IG but only when I'm in the room. I can see us being in touch after our...

    Anyone done phobia work?

    @DogLover33 I'm now wondering if the people you called "rude" on PsychCentral were in fact rude. You seem to be taking things too far. No one is asking you to leave, which was clearly stated. What IS happening is that you are being asked very specific questions about why you are on a PTSD board...
