One psychologist I saw for a time a few years ago had no empathy whatever. I told him of my fear that my depression would never change, that I'd feel it forever.
He said I might just have to accept that. Was like a punch in the face, I desperately wanted some hope that someday I'd feel better.

It was good for the first year but now he doesn't tell me how to help myself and keeps forgetting important things...

Dude the second hit the nail on why I don’t think my therapist is a good fit. I’m in CBT and I’m so frustrated with these worksheets. I need more help and it’s putting me back in a helpless roll from growing up with learning disabilities. Literally one stuck point was I can’t do anything right (including these worksheets) and he basically said to just do more worksheets. Ugh.

Another issue you touched on was privacy. My tellahealth therapist found out I lived in the same area and asked where I was working. Like no dude, you don’t need to know that…
