I'm afflicted by both ND and religious trauma.

Honestly, the more I spoke about it with a therapist as an adult, the more horrified she became about how I was treated.

Y'all ever been told you need to be cleansed of demons and pray for forgiveness in order to stop being an evil embarrassment of a person? Or that the reason you have an illness is because you don't love God and aren't trying hard enough?

But don't worry! It got worse.

That sucks. When therapists join the war on trauma, it should not be on the side of trauma.

I don't think they were suggesting that the therapist was reinforcing any of this, just that the therapist was horrified by what they went through.

Correct!

I changed the wording of the post to hopefully make it more clear.
