@Wonder Woman has given great advice. I definitely agree that you are minimizing your abuse, experiences and feelings. I understand that well. When you've been taught to do that by caretakers, it feels safe. But it blocks the road to healing. So does comparing. It doesn't matter if others have it worse or better. It's about you and what you feel and think.
I may have missed this but have you reached out to your therapist to see if there are any options for right now? I know you said you don't think she's doing anything, but do you actually know what options you have?
i agree with that. i'm hoping that i'll be able to change the mindset i've been conditioned to have sooner than later because it's only thanks to you and @Wonder Woman that i've been able to recognize the effect it has had on my life so far. i'll have to spend a lot of time working on it. thanks :)
i haven't reached out to her yet but i plan to do so later today. hopefully i'll be able to figure that out. if not, i'll probably have to ask my mom if i can get online counseling or something and pray.
thanks for your response! i really appreciate it :) have a great day/afternoon/night!
