it sounds very provoking to me. but there is a chance that maybe he didn't think you were looking at it from that aspect (global view). or maybe he was trying to provoke some anger issues out of you???
all i can say is be 100% honest about how he made you feel With him. if he p#$$ed you off, say it, if you felt guilty, tell him...if he can't take your response feelings-he's not going to help you any.well the first therapist i had handled my worst moments by terminating...;^P
but this guy i haven't had any really bad moments yet....however when i talk about S. ideation or SI he is quite calm and reassuring that the thoughts are ok and that he wants to hear about them....get descriptive (how, what, when, where and why) to me this is Great. i actually want to talk about my S.ideation, i want to understand it. i want to get it under control (if that's possible). he also reacts quite well to my SI.
but in about three weeks or so i know that he will be seeing a side of me he hasn't before, so we'll see. however, i really get the feeling that he doesn't want to back out. he knows of my past attempts and current status and he at first mentioned (concerned) and wanted me in DBT along with ind. with him, but he hasn't brought it up again. he seems very comfortable about all this...that's Exactly what i need. i need a calm body/soul to guide me through these thick woods.
we all deserve that don't we?! i sure know You do!
take care
