Introduction: Sorting it all out

I understood that. She broke confidentiality before even talking to you. Another therapist would not have talked to some other person in the house. Another therapist would not have left a message unless they thought you would get it directly. And they wouldn't ID themselves as a therapist.

There are psychiatrists who are also psychotherapists and even psychoanalysts. I see one. You can do a bit of research about the person ahead of time, to see if they fit your needs. If you're seeing someone you don't like, look for someone else. It's a free country and it's your money.

Yes this really helps. :roll: Why not just take the step to maturity and leave off a signature altogether?

Well, I come back after a couple days and see I've missed all the excitement.
It would seem ironic that a person would resort to pain to relieve themselves from pain. Masochism is much more than deriving pleasure from pain—it is empowering to some individuals. In many cases, people resort to self-harm to rebel against societal confines and in the process, redeem their sense of control and freedom. Having an abusive Nar parent can cause a lot of psychological problems in children, which can last a life time. Heck, I was on Paxil for years. None of us here have escaped unscathed.
I think everyone tries to somehow cope with the abuse they have/are suffering from, looking for a way out of their pain. For some it may take a negative turn, in the form of alcohol/drug abuse, over-eating/bulimia, or even the desire to experience pain through cutting oneself or a spanking.
Truthseeker has already apologized and removed the naughty site. No sense anyone still having their panties in a bunch over it. Everyone is entitled to mess up once, so let us move on from this. Don't be distracted from who the real enemy is.
Everybody have a good day.

This smacks of "shaming" - intending to silence.
If a person responds with an allegorical "F-You"- as the signature suggests to me - then you can bet I will reply.
Have a nice day.
