Silly rabbit! BMW>You! XD but seriously..FYL =

i don't think therapists are really supposed to answer their phones unless it's an emergency call. so unless one of her patients stole her bmw, then that's just really rude. find a different therapist. i went to this one lady and somehow we got on the topic of abortion, so she showed me pictures of dead babies. i never went back. but now i have a good therapist, so go find another one. also, try reading overcoming depression for dummies. i just bought the anxiety one, and it's interesting and has a lot of good shit in it so it might help. and whoever said that no one else cares is wrong. i don't know many people who care, but i know a few. so you don't have to pay someone to listen, but therapists do help. well, the good ones help at least. and whoever said depression is your mind telling you something is wrong, being depressed and having depression are totally different. anyone can get depressed over anything and that's normal. people with depression have a chemical imbalance and their brain isn't producing enough serotonin. if he is depressed because of something that happened, he probably just needs someone to talk to and some new friends or something. but if he has depression, he probably needs medicine to help with the imbalance, and then he will still need to be in therapy too.

Find another therapist, and report her to your local therapists group, the Better Business Bureau, and your insurance company. See if you and your insurance company will work together to refuse her bill for her lack of service - I'm sure neither you nor your insurance company want to pay for obviously crappy treatment, and you deserve better. After all, you've taken the first big step in wanting to seek help - there are too many people with depression that don't.

Fake... I'm a therapist, its against our code of ethics to do shit like that. Either sue that bitch, or get a life and stop posting lies on FML

i care. : )

wow guys, chill out. so the therapist answered the phone about her new car. that's important and a big investment, and it probably was ok for her, in that situation, to take that call. if OP feels like her therapist having other important matters in her life means that the therapist doesn't care about her, then that might be an issue to be addressed in therapy too.

I generally wouldn't mind my therapist taking a short call during my session; if, say, she was waiting for an estimate from a mechanic before okaying the repair. I would mind, however, if it was an especially difficult or intense session, as it seems the OP's was, and she wasn't sensitive to that. Then again, I'm in therapy because I put everyone's needs before my own. So this comment might earn me a gentle scolding.

I am also a mental health professional. Entirely against our ethical code and not how we're trained at all. Perhaps a fake. Or someone who brings down the field a notch.

YDI for not growing up. So you are boring. Big deal.
