[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did the therapy not help?

You say a doctor wouldn't prescribe ADHD meds for him, why is that?

Op here. The first therapist I felt really bought into the narrative that I am a controlling shrew and that DH is this well meaning dad who just can’t meet my unreasonable expectations. She would side with him. There was data I could have presented to help her understand the level of neglect, but I hesitated to share that information because I didn’t want CPS involved and worry that she’d have to call them if I told her some of the incidents that happened.

The second therapist was more balanced and I thought maybe could have helped us but mostly we’d go to therapy, bring up a bunch of bad feelings, never get to any resolution, and the bad feelings would just linger until the next appointment. Also,DH would put on a show of participation during the session but I did all the work: all the scheduling, arranging, insurance, finding the therapist, etc. It was just another thing I was forcing on my DH and that he was doing to shut me up. I don’t think he actually wanted to be there or believed we needed it.[/quote]

It has to be someone who understands neurodivergence and masking, OP. Otherwise it's a complete waste of time. [/quote]
