How close can non therapistey community care be?
Hurt By Therapy replied to NoTea's topic in ***OPEN DISCUSSION***
Just finding this forum and the people in it was very helpful. I felt all alone in a world where everyone thinks therapists belongs on pedestals. -
Welcome Finley!

Welcome! I know exactly what you mean, it's like an oasis here. This field is so protected it's really hard to look around and find other's in similar situations. Once you realize you're not alone, well, that alone is helpful in the healing.

Complete This Sentence Game: Therapists are...
Hurt By Therapy replied to Eve B's topic in ***OPEN DISCUSSION***
This is so -
That's well put. You've seen in my story that I was devastated, but the more I learned about bad therapists and therapy in general, I began to heal when I realized it wasn't my fault, my therapist failed me. There's still some hurt obviously, but I've come a long way.

Welcome to the forum Happynow! I'm somewhat new here myself and have found it to be a great source of information and some really understanding people! Good to see you here!

That's probably fairly accurate though. -
Exactly, the hurt and damage they, the therapists, cause is excused and very deeply buried.
-
Welcome Sandpiper! Yeah, the damage that therapy causes is well hidden. When I first started researching it I was feeling quite isolated, the few articles I was finding was excusing the therapists in a circular way.

Thank you Disequilibrium1! Yes, I'm not holding my breath on my complaint going anywhere, but I want to put her treatment of a client on record and let her know that there can be consequences for her actions. It's my only real legal option other than lawsuit and I'd rather not go there. (I will though if her BS continues. She may think I'm not capable of defending myself, but she'd be surprised where my limits are when I'm pushed and treated like crap.) -

Yes, I think there's a very good chance they would! -

Therapist are... in it for themselves, money, self-importance, and a feeling of power/dominance over the patient. -

That makes a lot of sense, it's not an unknown procedure with many agencies and bureaucracies. "Only see what we want you to see." -

Heh heh, did you read my PHI or something? Lol, you nailed it. I'll share what she wrote about me when I'm ready to publish part 2, you are on the money. -

I just put the link to my site/blog in my profile under the "about me". Site's only been up for part of this month so far so it still has some growing pains to work out, but I think I have it working well now. I also linked to The Client's Side forum in my links section and will mention it also in my next blog post. Thank you! -

Thank you Eve, I can see you're right, this will never go away. I've never trusted anyone to this extent before. Part of that may be on me, but I thought I was cautious, I had thought I was a good judge of character and it took about a year to trust her enough to really open up. Unfortunately, as I find out, she's just really good at hiding behind a mask of friendly caring. I believe the cold fish I saw on that last session was the real person. I agree being around others that can relate help and they can be more caring then a lot of people. I feel the people on the PTSD groups I belong to, (and here), I can talk to and not fear hearing things like "It's no big deal" or "get over it", etc. -
Thank you for having me and providing such a forum, I did not know it existed until I came across a link in someone's blog. It'll be nice to be around people that understand. I was hurt and abandoned by my therapist, which created another and more current trauma than I originally went in for. I have posted the story to my blog/website, but I know it's bad form to join a group and start posting links, so I'll just copy it over here a little later today. Be forewarned, it's long, the trauma made me feel the need to enunciate more than I usually do. Thanks again! >Guy
