I'm so sorry about your experience with that awful therapist, & for such a long time. I've had bad therapists, too. They do a lot of damage that lasts a long time. They should lose their licenses. And they make it harder for the good therapists to earn their client's trust. I am afraid to try therapy again. So I'm learning & repairing myself on my own. I guess many of us do that. God bless you & Hugs to you, Pink Kitty!!

Thank you Waking Light! I'm sorry you also have had bad therapists. I think some of them really really suck with more ''complex cases'' and then blame the client for not making ''significant change''.... ugh. I agree with everything you have said. They really should lose their licenses when they are bad and do harm and damage. He said I was ''damaged''. Hisssss

Exactly right! The bad therapists make it harder for the good therapists to earn their clients' trust

I too am afraid to try therapy again

I'm learning and healing without therapy. I agree, there are probably many of us who do that. God bless you too and hugs to you Waking Light!

I was actually diagnosed with traits of DPD (dependent) myself, but I disagree about it. Well, I do depend on hubby for some things, but I don't like get upset or scared when he leaves for work, for instance. I also sometimes depend on my Mom for emotional support and also these forums...actually, my earlier post on my thread now has me thinking if my "dependence" is a personality disorder or just normal dependence when you go to somewhere/someone(s) like daily. Know what I mean?

Anyway, I'm sorry for both you and Waking Light for you bad therapists experiences. I haven't had experiences like that, luckily, but I have my own issues regarding therapy. (well, you know. )


hugs!!!
