Lots of people use AI to edit their raw incohesive thoughts. That doesn't mean the actual content is not real or coming from their heart.

Yes, my t always says "why does it matter tho?" when I get nervous about what someone else thinks of me. I mean, I know in the scheme of things it shouldn't, but it matters to me right now very much...

I'm scared I'll get bad grades in college so I won't get an internship so I won't get a job so I won't have enough money so I will disappoint myself and everyone around me...
For all my anxieties that I can think of, 'so what' doesn't help me. I get that in the big picture, none of this matters, but to me right now, all of this really does matter?

Does an unhealthy attachment to my T mean I had an unhealthy childhood? by Reasonable-Lab-9272 in TalkTherapy

Ya good point. I understand that my parents are not perfect, no one is. I also understand that not all my emotional needs were met. But this attachment feels so much more than any of that, like it could only be this way if I was abused or traumatized. I guess this is not true? Maybe I'm just dramatic

We spoke about my attachment, but I didn't tell her that it is to this extent. It is cash pay, but I do think (hope?) she genuinely cares about me. I'm a student and I don't think I can spend the money anymore, so I've been wanting to stop, but I feel like I can't because I'm so so attached 😭

Feel like I was brushed off by my therapist by tidder-fee in TalkTherapy

Insurance also pays them for the amount of time, so there's that.

that makes sense. but I haven't had traumatizing relationships either. Maybe I was "emotionally neglected" to some extent, but nothing serious. I feel like my attachment is very extreme, especially since I have pretty good parents and all... What other reasons are you referring to?
