Oh my incognito, it seems like you're having a hell of a time. I'm so sorry for that. Would you like a hug? If so, here it is (((((((Incognito)))))))
First of all, if I were a betting woman, I'd bet all my marbles that your t will be glad to see you next time. If anything, I'd imagine that he was upset that he was so useless in helping you. I think when patients leave in a worse state then when they came in, it really bother's our t's. So I don't think he's mad or disappointed with you. He probably really just wishes he could have understood you today.
As for all this about you being bad... I know you feel that you are awful, bad and despicable, but I want you to step back for a second. HB once told me- well, something along these lines- that she wished I could understand that I was seeing me through tinted lenses (although she said it in a much more eloquent, HB-ish way!). What I'm getting at though is that you have a filter- that has been in place for a long time- over your eyes when it comes to seeing yourself. I could sit here and tell you a million times that you aren't bad for yelling at your daughter. You're human, you over reacted, you felt (feel) awful about it and you now have an opportunity to model something wonderful for your daughter- the art of making amends and forgiveness. But it's up to you to decide that you aren't bad because what I say won't really matter.
Think of it like this: You're walking along the street one day, and you trip... you get this awful pain in your leg and fearing the worst, you turn to the person walking nearby and say OMG, look at my leg! How bad is it??? Well, the person says oh shit, it's REALLY bad... you broke your leg. So, naturally, you think in terms that you've just broken your leg and you're mind starts racing... how are you going to get around? you don't have time for this? you can't afford it? what are people going to say? etc etc etc... Well, as more and more people come by and see your leg, they all tell you it has to be broken... and they say DON'T LOOK, WHATEVER YOU DO! You never work up the nerve to look at your leg because you're scared of what you'll see. But you don't want people to make a big deal about you, so you slowly get up and limp your way home. You keep limpin for days, weeks, months, years even, and eventually you wonder why your leg won't get any better, and by now your back hurts from limping all the time, and your hip hurts, and your leg muscles get really weak because you haven't been using them. Well, eventually, you go to the dr. because your back's really bothering you... but you never ever tell him about your leg. Finally, he see's you limping around one day and you have no choice but to tell him about that awful, embarrasing day that you fell and broke your leg... but he looks at you, references your x-rays, and to your astonishment, tells you that your leg never was broken. He can see evidence of an old sprained ankle, but there was no break... ever. You start thinking and all the sudden, it's clear to you how you've spent the last several years of your life ACTING ON FALSE INFORMATION!
Incognito, you got the message that you were bad somewhere lllooonnnnggggg ago. but it was false. you. are. not. bad. You feel like you are but that is a lie. I strongly encourage you to THINK about it... you don't have to agree with me, but what if your leg was never broken? what if you were NEVER bad, what if that isn't true?
And I guess I just want you to know that your t isn't there to judge you. I know you know that, and I know that it's scary when it comes down to it (AG explained that well!), but he's safe. It is possible to trust him and let him see you. It is going to hurt and be bumpy, but you can do it. And I can't wait until the day you post here and say GUYS, GUESS WHAT?!?! I'M NOT AN AWFUL PERSON!!!
You are lovable, and worthy of forgiveness from your daughter AND yourself.
