My therapist: Our therapy cannot just me me convincing you not to CTB

[exiled]

I told my therapist about how I want to CTB and he literally got mad at me and said that we cannot spend our sessions talking about this every time....

I feel so hopeless.

Fuck prolifers.

Mental health help is out there? FUCK you no it's not.

My first therapist is in jail and was a fucking creep, the other one is under investigation, and now this third one says this to me...

FUCK people who think that the world gives a shit. Prolifers and kiss my ass.

Wow.. some therapists really don't know how to handle this.
During my service 5 years ago I told the mental health officer that I almost pull the trigger and he literally just told me" lift your hand, give yourself a slap, don't do it again"
The discussion about CBT ended there's.

They only care about making money.

I just think that therapy is a way to profit from people's suffering anyway, it's just the reality that suicide cannot be discussed openly in this awful world as it very often just leads to suicidal people being punished by being locked in a psych ward. Sadly we exist in such an anti-suicide society where there is a lack of acceptance towards the right to die, there really is a lack of compassion towards the suffering people go through.

If it's all enough, and you're done, then that's what this site is for. At the very least, after everything, you deserve some peace.

But why are you telling your therapist this? Do you want him to sign off? Give his approval and consent? You know he has feelings for you. I don't mean "feelings", I mean he's had an emotional response to you. What is he supposed to say in these moments? Borrow my gun? Here's your rope back? Never mind all that and move in with me? (Just a guess but that's the one I bet he sits on the heaviest.) Besides, if you tell him you will end it, and have the means, he's legally obligated to have something done about it. Think about what you want from this guy.

It's such a silly procedure..
I always answer that I do want to cbt but by answering "no, I don't have a method" they leave the subject when they think I'm not serious enough .
Just a way for me to take it out of my chest .

What else are you supposed to talk about? Like I can see if he steered it into why you wanted to ctb and addressing that stuff, but a therapist completely shutting down talk around ctb doesn't sound like a good fit for you.

I mean- it's just ridiculous! It's not like a quiz where you can just say 'pass' if the question is too difficult! It's like- can you pretend to have something easier to deal with- so I can feel like I've helped you? Imagine going to a regular doctor- Oh- you think it's broken? Hmmm- I don't know how to deal with breaks- how about we just pretend it's a sprain?

I'm sorry. This just makes my blood boil and it's not the first time I've heard it. Like MAYBE- they realise that they can't help if their patient is going to just resist all the time. That makes sense to me- but- they should explain that then! Not just say- 'You're not allowed to talk about this.' Yeah- I just don't get it...

They do nothing but use people to get money, trying to make people hide the fact how terrible this world is.
That's how I see it atleast.

I second this. There are no good therapists.
I've searched for years. Nothing.

I feel you. I'm so tired of hearing "you're not alone" there's help, etc. I tried for so long to reach out and didn't seem to help much. And I've had my share of creepy or terrible counselors too. Don't feel like you have to keep seeing someone thats not a good fit. I hope it works out for you.
