Hey everyone! Well I don't know if you may have read some of my posts about my depression issues and such, but I just want to say that I am getting a therapist and am going to try to get help of sorts, because I can't help myself any more right now. Also, anyone else that may have been feeling like I have, talk to someone that's objective. It may help...I'm not sure yet because I haven't started seeing anyone yet but still. ALrighty then.
Best Wishes to you all,
~Quebby~

My parents split 6 years ago and my mom thought it would help if i went to therapy.
i've had seven, SEVEN different therapists. and i didn't talk to anyone but the first one, but that was school stuff. i don't like talking to those people, but they have helped some of my best friends very much, so i'm thankful for that.
I'll stop now....thought i'd say something. Smile
I hope your sessions go well too!

Hmmm...a Therapist l was actually considering on visiting one not after my Mum asked me why lwas being insensitive and irritated lately and l ALMOST replied "you want to know why Mum...well l think l am going demented".
Maybe it's not such a bad idea afterall.

Me too. Life would be so much more interesting if I had something worthwhile to say...like telling hundreds of complete strangers that I'm getting a therapist.

Yeah, he always sounds like he's talking to a frightened animal or something. And he moves his hands really slowly, like he's conducting an orchestra in slow motion. I'm nervous for days before I go to him. And he widens his eyes when I say something he didn't know, but he does that slowly too, and then he tilts his head back and looks at me with them half closed. *shudder* He looks like a snake. Jen.

What's really creepy is when I have to close my eyes and do these relaxation exercises, and he just stands there, watching me, talking in this creepy voice. "Relaaaax, Jennnifer. Breathe innnn the energy. Imagine it surrrrouuunding youuuu. Bluuuue energy, soaking innnn to your skiinnn." And he wonders why I'm not relaxed! But most of the stuff he does isn't as corny or as creepy as that. Jen.

My therapist's a guy. He does a crummy job, but that's cause I can't tell him anything. We talk about school a lot. And flowers. And Japan. So get a therapist of your gender. It will makes things much easier. Love, Jen.

Ignore Amaris. She's just bitter because she found out her religion worships Sprite. I think it's a great idea to get a therapist...it takes courage too. Good luck and best wishes, Jen.

My God, thank you so much for telling me that you are getting a therapist, as that is the only thing I've been able to think about for a week! I've been sitting here, on the edge of my seat, wondering if you were ever going to get a therapist, and now I know. Thank you; you'll never know how much that means to me. You've made my life complete.
