      That sounds incredibly frustrating. I’m sorry and I hope you’re in a better therapy situation.

      My current therapist is both autistic and nonbinary and they’re great for me. Sometimes when we talk about something rough they’ll check in that I have a good fidget, and they’ll ask me if I have aftercare lined up. (I usually promise to play phone games or pet my dog to wind down).
