Deerock I am still confused as to how you disrespected her. I thought I remember you writing that you asked if you could share a violent fantasy with her and she said yes. You were not raging or upset just expressing the fantasy and it pushed her over the edge. What happened that she perceived to be disrespectful? The fact that she perceived disrespect is all that matters, but I'm confused as to whose therapy this is...hers or yours? Is she expecting you to take care of her needs as well? How are you to work on you and be completely honest if you are going to worry about disrespecting her again? I agree that emotionally abusing a therapist is a fine line, but at the same time the anger is transference, isn't it? Shouldn't the therapist know this and not take it personal because transference is when therapy is working?
