My "therapist" was not a professional
My "therapist" was not a professional, licensed therapist. She was just chit chatting about her life. It was extremely alarming. A few concerning behaviors: -responding with, I quote, "I guess when you reach 50 you're just not concerned about that stuff" when I wanted to talk about some insecurities, and then proceeding to change the subject -talking about her own life literally 95% of the session (usually pretty off topic from what I said) -yawning through the session -mentioning stories about a friend running in an election in Michigan who I could easily find out who she was talking about ---> giving me the feeling that she is not respecting boundaries and privacy and who knows - is she talking to other people about me? -bringing the conversation to democrats and republicans frequently, mentioning she has many republican friends despite being democrat (which again was COMPLETELY off topic as i was talking about insecurities within one friendship with artistic differences) -rambling way beyond the given time limit - I'm the one who has to cut her off and say okay I have to go now -filling silences with more stories about herself - i think she only asked me like 3 questions the whole session about me and and how I'm feeling DO NOT USE BETTERHELP THIS WAS SO WEIRD!!!!!
