I go to therapy and I really love my therapist, I am a girl, I've been severely abused during childhood, but what I want more than anything is for my therapist to adopt me, I just want a family, someone to love me, take care of me, want me, is it normal? Does anyone else want their therapist to love them, want to live with their therapist forever etc?
You have to be careful about these situations. The therapist is doing there job, it is their job to seem empathetic and helpful, however it is also there job, which means it may not be as genuine as you may think.
Actually, from what I've found, to perform your job well you need a lot of empathy with your patients. Which means you do end up caring about them and genuinely want them to get better, not just for some pay rise.
do you think she really doesnt care about me then? and is just telling me crap like that she thinks i am special and stuff? she said if she could have me live with her we could do that but she isnt allowed.
I have pretty much replaced my therapy with this website.
I think the mental health system is crap.
I would rather talk to other people who have their own problems because it's like a support group.
When I was recovering from meth addiction I fell in love with my therapist too. We had a special friendship, a trust that she established which I have never had with another person.
But where the lines got blurred is when I considered that this was her occupation and she was just doing her job very well in making me comfortable with her.
I wish I could say we are still friends but I no longer need a therapist (which is a good thing) and I am no longer in contact with her.
I think it's normal in your situation and I'm sorry for what you've been through. You are probably just very emotionally needy and starved for human love and affection. My sympathies, empathies and well wishes are with you.
Perfectly normal.I wanted my old boss to be my dad lol he wasn't very much older than me though XD
Wow, and I hated most of my therapists. Always telling me I was fucked up in the head and misdiagnosing me.
It does happen, but this is apparently rare. The female psychiatrist that I had when I was in first grade, I deeply cared for her. She was like the parent I never had and I wanted her to be my mother. This is apparently called,"Transference". Long story short, my mom and her mom, who had grudges against her, when the arranged appointments were up, they refused to let me see her again. Very traumatic that was...
