My ex-Therapist deserves to be called a lot of

bad names. I gave him way too much credit. I know this in my heart. I just had to say it here, in public, where everybody could read it. Honesty in therapy = oxymoron. He is angry with me. I am his bete noire. At this point I take a little bit of sadistic pleasure in that thought. I am not nice. I am angry too.

I'm not sure i have your whole story completely in mind, but I'm under the impression that he terminated you rather suddenly at a time when you really needed him. If this isn't right, I apologize. But, if it is more or less right, I think it's completely natural to feel hurt, abandonned and enraged. You aren't in any way a bad person for such natural feelings, which every one of us would have if that happened to us. It's awful that you worked hard enough in therapy to allow your real feelings to come out, only to be rejected for them.

This just isn't a place you want to stay in. I notice that you have said more therapy is not something you're going to do, but if you did interview several therapists until you found one you felt safe and natural with, wouldn't it be good. I can't think of any other way to get past being re-traumatized like this. If I've got the essentials wrong, please forgive me!

Thank you you have it just fine Pfinstegg (nm)
