  • You should call the old therapist and brag about how well you're doing, all due to the fact that he dropped you! Tell him you are thankful he dropped you because you were able to find a much better therapist. In the end, it seems he did you a favor.

    • I was dropped without reason and part of me believes that's because the therapist assumed I'd turn out fine, despite suffering from suicidal depression and ongoing substance abuse issues. I swore off therapy for two years and only tried it again because someone talked me into giving it one more try before I offed myself. By a stroke of incredible luck, the next therapist I was set up with was exactly who I needed to help me progress

      I don't want to reward that original therapist's willingness to say "fuck you" to their clients by letting them know that, despite the fucked up way they ended our client-therapist relationship, I actually did turn out fine

      No, if I were to give that therapist a call, I'd have someone else speak and pose as a family member and tell them how, after I was dropped as a client, I got deep into drugs and I got horribly fucked up, like I lost my feet to excessive self-harm or something

      • Just a thought...do you know why he dropped you? Maybe you weren't ready to be helped at the time he saw you. Or maybe your insurance no longer was accepted there?
