Therapy ending

[Treeline589]

As mentioned before, my old therapist terminated me. All I want is to have that therapeutic relationship back. At this point not having that just makes me want to CTB more

I'm so sorry. Why is it over? Could you considering looking for another therapist?

I guess he feels like after 6 years he feels like he doesn't have the training to help me anymore I am trying a new therapist, but I just feel like its a waste of effort because I feel like so am going to be hurt again

I'm really sorry, especially having after them for so long. It's not you, some therapists just aren't as good as they think they are and sometimes you don't realize how bad the last one was until you see someone else.

I've been through a lot of therapists and I finally found one who I mesh with well, doesn't judge me, and actually knows how to work with my trauma. I'm really hoping this new one works out for you.

I agree. @Treeline589 I hope things go well with this new therapist. If not, you can always find another one. I wish you the best.

I've been through a lot of therapists as well. After 10 years of trying (16 -> 26) I was also terminated by my last therapist. I honestly think it hurts more than it helps for me, which is why I stopped, even though it's the most commonly recommended remedy.. Same with emergency visits to the psych ward or suicide text/phone lines, after a while it's just the same thing over and over again and I feel even more pushed toward the edge. I can't accept some of the things that I can't change (financial mostly) which is required to progress in therapy. And I can't afford a therapist who could schedule me as often as I would really need. Don't do well in a group setting due to BPD. I don't like that everything is focused on distraction, when my problems are generally just caused by the way my personality and values mesh against society.

Sorry for not really being inspiring. For what it's worth, I think that therapy is probably helpful for most people and that I'm an outlier.
