In reply to Yelling at your T?, posted by Maxime on December 7, 2007, at 21:49:13
Your T sounds like my pdoc. I really yelled once when I thought he was accusing me of lying, but most of the time I just say really mean things and he reacts, quite angrily sometimes.
He asked me once if I thought he did things on purpose to make me mad, and I've tried to work my way through that. Yes, I think he does it on purpose sometimes to provoke my anger, but I told him I'm not going there anymore. It's not necessarily a tactic that would work with me.
My T? I may have yelled at her, or raised my voice, but our relationship is much more of a loving mother type.
So yelling is good, especially if it lets out some anger, or frustration. I was just reading about how some pdocs believe that frustration is absolutely necessary, otherwise we wouldn't work as hard! I don't buy that, but it's out there.
So yell away! If you have a good T, they will use it to help you.
