> WOOO, slugdoo. First, you said your therapist said he does like you. Second, he did not say he doesn't care about you outside the sessions.
He said he didn't
care about me period.
He said he doesn't go around thinking about you all the time or the other people he sees.
Well I know this and don't expect him to, I think you are totally misunderstanding my posts. I really don't think you know me or the situation very well so I will take it with a grain of salt as to what you said. Like I said I don't need hear anyone defending him right now. What he said was cruel and uncalled for and his behavior was unprofessional.Would you tell your "patients" that if they die you won't go to their funeral? (whether or not you do, but would you tell them that)
Would you tell them that you don't care about them whether in session or out of session? (whether or not you do, would you tell them that to their face especially after 2 1/2 years)
Would you make light of someone crying after you scared them and made you cry because they were scared of you? And how could anyone joke about someone crying for the 1st and 2nd times in the last 2 weeks of therapy of over 2 1/2 years span, where in their past history of childhood abuse would be tortured worse if they did cry and was taught NOT to cry for protection.
I don't feel there is any reason or justification of what he did. I am here for support of feeling hurt right now by what he said and did. I don't hink my T needs support right now, he isn't he one posting.
I realize it seems he must not care; I was where you are once upon a time. I also know that just because I did not go around thinking about patients after hours, it did not mean I didn't care. If a therapist went around thinking about patients 24-7, that therapist would soon be ineffective and unable to help. I know that must sound weird, but it is true.
