Responses To Your Therapist That You Will Probably Never Say

[Barberian]

T: So, I'll see you next week?
M: No. I don't think so, your fired.

I actually fired my T on Monday, it wasn't face to face because I was talking to a vet's suicide prevention hotline. She asked if I wanted another T, and I said yes. I've been wanting another T for a while now, but was waiting for a breaking point. Monday was such an event. My T helped me alot, but I feel that a fresh perspective is the best thing for me now. Two years with my old T and the breakthroughs have been few and far between lately.

T: I am leaning towards PTSD and Borderline Personality Disorder
M: I am leaning towards rejecting your opinion.:eek: Oh boy do I wish I said that.

Actually, did say that to mine when my T told me I has PTSD and that I dissociate in therapy at first. Took me a good month or two to actually see the symptoms and get out of denial.

Denial huh.... I still have issues with accepting the PTSD part:eek:

This thread is awesome.
I was dumped by my therapist a couple months back. She said she felt it wasn't really helping me. I tried to take it well, but there's no one else I can see cause I'm poor and she was gov't funded. So what the HELL am I supposed to do now lady?! No real freaking help from anyone ever. I relate to so much said in this thread. I especially relate to forwardmotion462. They wouldn't be flashbacks if I could just put my attention somewhere else!

M- I think you are right, I like not being able to function. I am so content to feel like I can no longer read social cues correctly. I totally f**king love to have "come aparts" every time I can't control what is happening in my life. Sounds like a party to me!

ahahahhahahahhahahaha lmfao this is hilarious. I say things like this to my T all the time.

I'm like are you effin kidding me? YES I AM MADLY IN LOVE WITH BEING NON-FUNCTIONAL TO THE POINT I FEEL PATHETIC. yes. I'M PAYING YOU SO THAT I STAY THIS WAY.... -_- seriously? xD

This is what I want to tell my T before he leaves. I highly doubt I will.
When you do an intake interview of a patient like me run as far as you can.
I know you not supposed to but do you fiiing care.
You being a prick is what has helped me.
I’m grateful for the fact that you have shown up every week.

T: Do you have a lot of friends?

M: Yeah. And they're a hell of a lot better than you! They're more supportive, and they care about me. Considering that I was bullied, this question just bugs me, and I feel worthless and as if I don't deserve them. Thanks for making me feel worse. What a great session.

T: How does that make you feel?
M: I don't really know how to put it in words. If I knew that I wouldn't need you!

That is my favourite line.... I think I say it to my T about 2/3 times a session......

 

[C.J]

almost every session:
T: You've had many minor trumatic events in your young life and look how far you've come.....
M: Smile and nodd (really inside screaming)
what I want to say: Yeah, I've some so far that I'm sitting here with you.....

HI Barberian,
One of my T's actually told me that there would be dry periods and not to expect many, if any, breakthroughs during them. He was right, but when we did have them.....WOW, it was more than worth the work and wait!

I know this is a semi-joke thread, but I just had to share!
