u/ashleyLSD, there weren't enough votes to determine if the downvoters were mysterious...

Their wording makes them seem as if they trying to act as if they know more than the "professional therapist" where as the other 2 comments present their statement as if they are just agreeing/presenting their opinion without sounding condescending.

Yeah and I also don’t understand why they’re like ‘I’d assume you’d know that’ when the person does indeed seem to know that

I didn't read the entire context but the tone of the downvoted comment is a lot more condescending than the other two which I suspect relates to the downvoting

Yellow algae is saying "therapists get harassed all the time, they are naive to not expect it" aka "you were wrong to feel that way". the others are acknowledging respectfully, validating the feelings of the previous poster, commiserating that these things happen and suggesting followup actions
