    Other TBI

    @Friday last year I was in a severe car accident. The shoulder belt failed and my head went through the windshield. My husband and I were taken to different hospital rooms and I had no idea I had been unconscious until my husband told me later. I have absolutely no memory of the accident only...

    Question For College Students With PTSD

    I'm not in college anymore, but one thing I specifically remember is being frustrated at not being able to remember things. I could remember being engaged in classroom discussion and being interested in the topic but for the life of me once I got home couldn't remember the subject matter. It was...

    Breaking contact.

    I haven't read the replies but I know my opinion is going to be an unpopular one. If no abuse occured, I would tell the younger brother to never ever give up. Sibling relationships are far too precious to lose hope. It is a shame the older brother has no clue how lucky he is.

    Feel physically ill at the thought of going back to therapy.

    @Cypress The thing was I was expressing my need for help with stuck grief due to the loss of my newborn 16 years ago. Ok, so maybe she was right in the fact that the lack of support shown to me was that it made people uncomfortable, maybe I have been wrongly bitter about it all these years but...

    Sorry the death of someones baby ruined your birth experience

    @Ronin I am not sure, And I already filed one complaint against a therapist in the practice, but she was much, much worse than this one. I have had several therapists over the years, one of my earliest therapists could be considered bad, but for the most part I have had good experiences. ?

    Feel physically ill at the thought of going back to therapy.

    Your probably right. At first I figured she was just trying to get me to reframe it. It's never in session that I think of these things. @ButterflyBean I was asking if it would be wrong to include that wording in my termination letter. Thank you.

    Feel physically ill at the thought of going back to therapy.

    I am writing a letter to her telling her why I am terminating therapy. Would it be over the top to include "I am so terribly sorry that a woman crying because she lost her baby while you were in c-section post ruined your birth experience. Sarcasm intended. Learn some empathy."? I am 75/25 on...

    Feel physically ill at the thought of going back to therapy.

    The problem I have is a lack of therapists in the area. There is one mental health clinic. None of the 4 private therapists have openings. Getting this therapist was a battle. Her predecessor at the same clinic WAS flat out abusive. This is more subtle. I was so desperate for a good therapist...

    Feel physically ill at the thought of going back to therapy.

    I am going to talk to my psychiatrist. I have a good psychiatrist. Thanks, I am glad I am not the only one who saw something wrong with this. It really, really bothered me. I don't think I am going to go back though.
