Get a therapist

I have researched into therapists my health coverage may cover, and I have discovered one in my area who has specialties in Anxiety, Depression, and Medical Illness/Disease Mgmt, three things that I struggle with – among other things. I need to call UHC and figure out if I need a reference, and check to see how many appointments they will cover before making an appointment. I need to do this – to come to grips with my diabetes, and to delete some of the anxiety i have on occasion – haven’t been struggling with it lately, but then again i haven’t’ been under a lot of stress either!

it helps.

hey i think there are many kinds of therapy depending on the issues. recently i read david burns’ ’’feel good’’ or whats the title n he s talkin about how cognitive therapy can really help deeply depressed people. i dont think i am that bad, but i believe in that kind of sessions. tomorrow is my first appointment! hehe!

i have called and called a rather long list of therapists, and no one ever gets back to me! JEEZ i mean is this really beneficial for people who are going to a therapist for high stress? i dont know why this whole therapy thing gets me so stressed out. just the thought of talking about painful things makes me not want to in the first place, and the fact that its incredibly hard to get an appt really rubs me the wrong way. im starting to really think this whole concept of therapy is a rip off. ..but at the same time im so not happy with life…..

It came at a strange time in my life, and although i’d recommend it to others, I had simply passed the point of needing a therapist pretty much as soon as I got one. It’s a great thing to have, but I’m personally over it.

Therapy works only for so many. It didn’t for me. I had lots of problems going in and coming out of therapy. Of course the old lady didn’t make it any better. Quiet, old, red haired…her house smelled funny…made me sit there for an hour. Some waste of money that was. But try it out, this may not be the case for everyone.

It’s hard, but I’ve been in therapy for about a year and a half. I love my sessions, though at first it was so difficult, when i’d leave her office i’d be so exhausted I’d have to sleep. I’ve gotten over a lot of my issues, but there are still somethings i don’t talk about. It’s been said that when you have a good therapist you’ll leave feeling worse than when you arrived. It’s true!

I’m probably too young to want/need a therapist. but i’d like one, he/she could sort out my dreadfully clouded mind
