Oh man. I was ghosted by my last therapist after 10 years. His behavior was really abusive towards the end and it's ultimately positive he's no longer in my life, but I am still struggling with the damage he caused and it's been almost a year since he ghosted me. I'm also realizing that he misdiagnosed me in a malicious way and turned my symptoms around on me, going out of his way to trigger me and make me feel helpless.

I am working with a new therapist but I'm finding it very hard to make any progress. I'm also constantly going back and forth with thoughts of writing to my old therapist about his abusive behavior towards me for closure, and I've also looked into reporting him. Any thoughts, suggestions for me?

i HATE cilantro and i still like chipotle. i don't find it overwhelming in their foods, not when everything is mixed together.

Thanks. If anything was said that was too personal it was his attacks on me. The guy rolled his eyes when I said I'd written a suicide note and I would just go silent. He said some stuff to indicate he was doing harm to other patients too but I have a long history of abusive therapists and the powerlessness doesn't really give me any agency to take action. He went on vacation and just never contacted me again.

I'll keep working on it. It's just scary that he's out there advertising himself as a trauma therapist when he's actively doing harm.
