Hi there! I understand what you are saying completely. I went with out help for almost 18 years because I didn’t trust people. I finally had a break down this year. I had to make a decision and seek help. It certainly hasn’t been easy and it’s been scary but I’m glad I did. Please just try seeking help. If you don’t feel like it’s the right fit with the doctors or therapist, then seek another one. You’re the one that calls the shots. Hang in there.

Hello Buddy and welcome to the forum. I am so sorry you have been mistreated by the mental health services. I hope you will find support on here.

Thank you, that is helpful.

One of the worst abusers of my life was my adolescent therapist. What a profound betrayal. Now, many years later I have and have had some really amazing relationships with therapists that have meant so much to me. I've also had style bad ones (though never like that again) My $0.02 is to lay it all out on the table at the first session. If they don't take it seriously, don't go back.

Thank you, I Will.
