Trying to shake it off

I attended my talk therapy yesterday. She asked me what I have been up to (as part of the therapy, the therapist would be asking what the patient have been up to after a week or 2 of not seeing each other). I told her that I have been making tile coasters, which are good for gifts this holiday and for any other occasion. She then said, oh wow cool! Then she then showed me the gift basket that she has done which she sells in a school or office where she lives. She then later on said, I may be able to help you with the coasters. That got my spirits high. THAT WAS A WRONG FEELING :-( Today, I waited for her for an hour, which I feel was a wasted 1 hour of my days. I showed her and she said, oh they're pretty! How did you make them ?! I had to say, I made it with love. Then I told her, "do you remember what you told me yesterday? You told me that you might be able to help me with my coasters?" She then said, "oh no, I'm just your therapist, Christina can help you with that." Since that time up to this time that I am sharing you guys my sentiments, I still feel down :-( I distracted my self by cleaning the stove earlier, but it was a struggle. I wanna eat but I feel full :-(

Yeah sometimes I had a therapist that did not show up and was late a lot. This made me so mad.

So, are you still seeing that therapist? As for me, this month will be it.

@proseprity68 No I fired her and got rid of her. Now I have a young guy who knows not much but listens.

Sometimes therapists do not want to pay attention to our emotions.

I feel that they are just there for the salary and nothing more.

That was very rude of your therapist to let you think that she would help you with your work.
