my therapist fired me
i need some reassurance. is this normal. she told me i had abandonment issues and then abandoned me.
@versatileOwl4907 I'm sorry sweetie, I don't think your therapist abandoning you is never the right thing to do😥 it's very sad. I've been told before by a therapist that I'm not ready for therapy. So yeah I understand how crushing it can be😞 gives you a giant festive tiny hug ❤ your not alone in this. I hope you find another therapist soon. Don't give up ok?
Thank you for the hug. I’ll try not to give up

Same happened with me
A lot of therapists are arrogant and over-estimate their own abilities. They're just people but they like to project that they are these infinite bastions of patience and light... but nah they are just people and when it gets tough they usually bail so they can have an easier life
Thanks for responding. She was otherwise a person I liked talking to, but it did feel like she was trying to make her job easier in the end
i don’t know what to do. i live in a new city. my friends are far away and busy. i’m lonely. my therapist told me that i wasn’t ready to heal. i don’t know what to do. i’m lonely
Do you have a list of other therapists? If not, find a doctor to talk to. They usually have some good suggestions.
I am so sorry that this happened. What exactly did the therapist want you to be doing that they thought that you were not doing?@versatileOwl4907
i don’t have therapists to talk to right now. i don’t have a primary care physician. my former therapist said that i have emotional trauma from a factor in my life that i do not believe is true. i told her i felt that she wasn’t listening to me and she told me to find a new therapist.
You told her the truth and she didn't like it. That isn't entirely on you. Therapy is a relationship with two people and yours wasn't working.
So now the time has come to look for someone new. Do you have some way that you might try to do that? @versatileOwl4907
@versatileOwl4907 Hello, it seems you are having a bit of trouble with therapists. Sometimes it can take awhile to find the right one, but I think you will find the right one eventually. You deserve it 🤗
