Therapist Relationship Is Falling Apart

[nomorechickenlittle]

Really really hurting tonight. Had 1st appt with therapist that i'd had previous issues with scheduled for today but it blew up before it even started. I sobbed for 2 1/2 hours straight and am still crying periodically. Thank gawd i had my dog to lick my face for a couple hours. My face is so swollen and my head hurts so bad. I just have to say something even though i'm too exhausted to get into details. I'll be seeking out feedback on the w/e that's for sure.

I'm glad you have your friend, your dog, to comfort you. Take care.

I'm not sure I understand- is this a therapist you've been in therapy with previously and stopped, or someone new to you and a first appointment with them? How did the session blow up before it had started, what happened for it to go so badly?

I'm sorry you're so distressed and am glad your dog is a comfort to you, is there anyone around you that can help calm or comfort you?

Therapist i've been working with for awhile but recently had an issue/break with. i'll expand on weekend. I was a mess earlier and now woke up crying about it. needed to get a bit out but not too much b/c of exhaustion and how long it would take me to explain.Going to be one long winded post. Plus need to sleep tonight, trying to forget it for a bit so i can work tmrw.

If long winded post, that is okay. From how hard it has hit you with crying that long, it has hurt deeply. If bad session after just losing a therapist or having break-up with one, this must be painful and i wonder if you had any 'where do i go now?' question come up. Good that you are talking about this. Am a bit confused on the previous issues part, but am easily confused lately with my own care of others in and out so if i miss you on anything my apology. Please be gentle with you there. It sounds every bit needed right now.
