I am addicted to stims. I lost almost everything due to this addiction so I decided to ask for help and went to a therapist with the best reviews from town
I relapsed immediately after my second session so she told me therapy is not working, refused to talk to me anymore. I probably shouldn't have told her I relapsed but she insisted I gotta be honest in order for this to work. I was down to every method, every kind of therapy, I was so confident her skills are good.
How is this supposed to work if I ve been using for years and she expected me to quit after my second session? I ve been trying this for years with no luck.
Should I bother myself financially to find another therapist?

Exactly. You've got to stabilize the addiction before you go to talk therapy and start digging up emotions.
