Unreliable therapist

I will not go to another therapist. The one I ‘see’ currently, since April 2020, never shows up for appts that she set up for me on every Monday and Friday. She misses an average of 9 out of 10 appts. I have had 3 unprofessional therapists in a row. I wasted a couple of years that I could not afford to lose. I’m terminal with the same disease I lost one of my brothers to:(... I know it’s going to be rough. My brother had my help as his progressed, but i have lost everyone. Both of my brothers and all but one of my friends have passed away. My last friend betrayed me so bad. We were friends for 33 years. When I was in the ICU of local hospital, with 20% chance of surviving, she moved me out. I lost my home to flooding disaster, so I had been living with her and helping her by staying with her dad. This therapist knows I’m not doing good, and that I barely survived 2 attempts last year!! and even when I tell her to please keep an appt, she still doesn’t:(.?when she does show up, she tells me to do things that I was in therapy to learn how to :(. Too bad

Hi @kindTurtle3738

I'm sorry to hear about your challenges and losses. Hope your loved ones rest in peace and comfort 🌹

It's very unprofessional indeed for therapist to come late on appointment. I'd be disappointed too if I were you ♡

There are many features available on 7Cups. including Forum, 1-1 chat, group support rooms, Self-help guides page, and the lates is Growth Path... which one you feel most helpful?

Take care 💜

@ouiCherie.

the 1 on 1 chats with listeners have been helpful on here. especially since i started chatting with DanciaKS. She is extremely knowledgeable. At times i get overwhelmed, often in the middle of the night, most listeners who answer my chat request help me get through those times. i'm just so lucky to find 7 cups!! I can't imagine how i could have handled things all alone.

I’m realizing that what I need most is to find a listener I am comfortable chatting with and try to chat more consistently. It’s a lonely feeling when there is nobody left in the world who knows me. I want some connection outside of these walls. I don’t know if I can even feel that again. Trust anyone not to betray me or give up on me. I think having nothing else to lose is enabling me to try one more time. Joining 7 cups is my last chance. Finding a listener with the tolerance and also the time to chat on a longer basis is going to be tough all on its own. It would be good to have someone know I exist again !!

I am so sorry to hear about what you are going through and I cannot imagine what you are facing.  It makes me feel very upset to hear that your therapist keeps treating like that.   She also sounds like she is very unprofessional and rude.   

Either way, we are here for you on 7Cups
