It's not your fault; she just wasn't the right person to help you. Don't let her discourage you from continuing to get help.
I'm here if you want to talk.
My eating disorder therapist I had told me she was frustrated and our session was over and she had to go get her kids and asked me if I wanted to come back (instead of assuming I would since I had been seeing her for months) so I told her no.
It may feel like you are being abandoned, but in reality she just sounds like a horrible therapist!
I have had at least 20 therapists tell me I couldn't be helped and that I was worthless and only one of them knew I SIed. My current therapist just learned I SI and he was amazing about it! He asked me, "Is that supposed to make me run for cover, the fact that you SI? I'm not leaving you alone in the dust and you deserve more. You are not crazy and lets work together to help you cut less." You need one like this, everyone does.
I have been seeing different docs who deal with different issues......
Maybe this person isnt really qualified in that sense, cant see anyone with the right stuff being so silly.
If she was proffesional and she couldnt help you, she should refer you to the most suitable person as doctors or any good doctor is part of a network, national and on a larger scale, even in third world countries.....
Sounds more like my ex than a doctor, LOL....
