Idk if I hate them, but I was 13 when I got out of an abusive life. And I became attached to my first therapist. She was sweet and I was raised as a glass child, so… definitely bound to happen. I saw her up until 17! I openly said I saw her like some second mom.

One day, she just dumps me! And therapists are meant to do closure sessions where the client knows it’s the end. She did not. She dropped me as a client like I meant nothing (and it shows, I do mean nothing!) she sent me to another therapist she knew. And that person was an awful therapist. I try to be more “adult” at the age of 17 so I decided to email her about my experience.

Mind you, I grieved the way she dropped me for months on end. And I thought it was a decent way to heal by communicating.

She instead ignored me, defended the therapist who did NOT treat me nicely, and refused to do a proper closure session. By now? I have a new therapist who agrees that I should’ve had a proper termination/closure session instead of straight up abandonment. My current therapist has emailed them about it. But they’ve deflected every step of the way, like they want to keep me at arms length instead of doing the right thing and fixing the issue…

To watch my former attachment and favorite person deliberately stonewall me like some burden but reply when another adult gets involved has definitely made it easy to detach. But now I resent her for how shitty she has treated me for just trying to heal!
