This is why I don’t do CBT. I’m not paying someone to gaslight me, my family does it for free lol

I literally told my last therapist that my mother would beat me for hours over homework. I have a big trigger for being told to bring work to my home and do it. He proceeded to give me work sheets to write about my trauma at home. I did not go back lol.

it’s lazy therapy. Like putting on a bandaid without fixing the core problem. My last therapist actually traumatized me more by invalidating my experiences as the scapegoat of my family. I’m at the point where even the thought of being vulnerable with anyone is agonizing

Can you talk about emotional neglect and feeling empty inside

This is why I stopped therapy. It was just retraumatizing me over and over with no resolution. I don’t want to sob and tell these intimate information while someone just watches me.

one time my therapist didnt log onto the call and finally texted me after over a half hour that her last client had a crisis and she needed to cancel. growing up I had a sibling with a lot of support needs so mine where always dismissed because I could take care of myself. I felt unimportant to this therapist, as if she knew I never have crises so she could just leave me hanging and I'd be fine. I never have crises because I was never allowed to. I ended up ghosting her this was just one of many things

I found both CBT and DBT to be wildly invalidating and at points actually enraging. not just the process but the way so many therapists apply it like a stamp with no regard for what the surface looks like. often there's almost an outright dismissal of lived reality.

I told one therapist about a type of abuse I experienced as a child and the ways that shows up in my life as an adult as some pretty specific fears. Her response was “well that’s not statistically likely so it’s nothing to be afraid of.” It absolutely felt like the invalidation I got from my family.

Every time someone tells me it’s my job to heal, as if I haven’t been trying since I was 15, I die a little bit more inside. I’ve been trying for months to explain to people that therapy is incredibly unhelpful because what I need is to be able to be seen in my pain by people who love me and still feel lovable afterwards. Not being able to talk about things with the people who I am close to is where so much of my sense of shame comes from. It’s so complicated…

Someone trying to tell me to "do a breathing exercise," when I'm crashing out literally makes it sooooo much worse. Most "crisis intervention," bs sends my whole body into a next level panic. The "mental health," system has only done years of damage when I gave them a fuckton of money to help me. The fact that I have to spend hundreds of dollars I can't afford for some dipshit to tell me to breath is painful, and infuriating. I have to pay someone to listen to me, because I'm alone and they're "a professional," and they just wreck my life more.

Telling clients it's okay to be whatever they are (sad, depressed, self-loathing) is such a game changer but it's considered so radical

I literally articulated this to my therapist a few weeks ago! I told her that her attempt might be that she’s trying to reframe to make me feel better, but instead it invalidates my feelings and makes me feel like I “shouldn’t” feel how I’m feeling, or I’m not supposed to feel how I feel, and it makes me feel worse. Alone.

CBT reinforced the trauma i had from being gaslit

That's why finding a good therapist is so hard when you're an intellectualizer. "You're so self aware." Yes, because I've been having to manage other people's emotions my entire life. I just can't feel things in my body without shutting it down and putting feelings into boxes.

Being told to butterfly tap and journal definitely felt like being sent to my room for crying as a child

maybe it's a me issue but I can't handle telling somebody about the most traumatizing life changing experiences I've ever had and never told anyone about, only for them to stare at me with a blank face and write down in a notebook, in complete silence, and move on. I was in therapy for most of my life, not once did I leave an office feeling anything but complete dread.

I went to a therapist for 3 sessions. She never remembered my notes, asking about my kids when I had none, acting like she didn’t want to be there, and going into EMDR halfway through session two.

this is when the therapist needs to realise the person needs a person centred approach rather than a cbt style, initially anyway. i don't need to be changed i need my experience and existence validated.

This is why I believe it is so damaging that CBT is the go to for so many issues, without doing the pre-work to ensure those underlying traumas are healed first

Rachel Robinson :
honestly I think why therapy didn't work for me is because you know you are paying them and that if you stopped they wouldn't care about you at all. I'm not saying therapists don't deserve to be paid well, but how can this dynamic heal relational trauma like I don't understand how it could? It's not healthy to get attached to someone that you have to pay $160 to just to talk to them for an hour.

This is why it’s so hard when your therapist forgets things. Like yes, it’s totally human and impossible to remember anything when you’re seeing 30 clients a week. But it’s still reinforcing the fact that it’s genuinely too much to expect for me to be known and understood 😢

Angela :
45, over a decade of therapy, and it’s just is not something I can fix. I was broken way too young. (CSA started before 4 and became extreme.) I just isolate now because all relationships are actually just transactional, even with people I poured unconditional love into. I had to literally learn that, and it doesn’t feel right to do.

Ama🔮 (she/they) :
Looking back, as a teen I told my therapist that my mom tried to put a hot iron on my face and she just... ignored that? No journal could help you from having this type of relationship, therapy is simply not for me

Mine talks about herself. We haven’t gone into my issues at all.
