[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did once and it was not a good experience. It only furthered her contention that something was wrong with *me* since I was the one in therapy and I just about lost it when she very nicely said "I'm sorry for anything that I may have done that hurt you" while unable to recall things like, say, how she gave me the silent treatment for an entire week when I was 12 because I went on my court ordered visitation with my own father. I realized I needed to do work on my own and would never get anywhere with her, which was a good thing but in my situation I wish I never let her in to something so private like my therapy. [/quote] OP here. Thank you so much for sharing! This sounds so much like my mom -- she will apologize vaguely for stuff but *never* specificly acknowledges what she did wrong and what harm it caused. She is unable to self-reflect. It's nauseating. I'm now convinced therapy with her is a bad idea.[/quote]
