I guess you are talking about cognitive dissonance and not distortion, but anyways.
I guess you are talking about dissonance, not distortion?
Anyways, I pushed back on the notion that a pharmacist knows your medications better than your doctor. If a pharmacist talks my patients into stopping...
Pharmacists are not on call. They are not available 24/7. If it takes you 48 hours to get answers from your doctor and you are not happy with that, then I suggest you find another one.
Most clinicians are not researchers and most researchers are not clinicians.
I have gotten very discouraged by the academic elite who do so many "studies" in a vacuum and tell clinicians what to do.
Healing is an art as well as science, but I feel more and more that big science is...
First of all, I cannot comment on the Canadian healthcare system as specific as you are, but clearly a few things seem odd from what you say.
*Codeine is an "analgesic" in Canada and also over the counter?! You have opiates over the counter? Not sure if this is what you meant, but it seems...
No critique, just curious. Why do you have three therapists? Wouldn't it be better to just have one? Or is it managed care? I could never have more than one therapist and when I move, I will establish with only one wherever I go to.
Well, that made it simple then. I will be bringing my cat with me everywhere from now on. Ideally, would like to get a pet cougar, but must first move to a state where you can have them.
I understand what you are saying, but I must still wonder:
Why do you go to "your pharmacist" if you are concerned about medications prescribed you?
Furthermore, do you really think they know your medications (and the effects upon you) better than your prescribing physician? I can...
I have two Russian Blue cats. One is named Chalice and the other Snow.
They are so empathic and vocal when something is up. Chalice woke us up a few years back when there was a water leak. They both walk on leash like a dog and will warn if there is something uncomfortable nearby.
I want to make the best garden in the world prod that is pollinated by my own bees. Plants are wonderful creatures in their own and they never rule you up
WOW!! This is heavy and lengthy stuff. I tread research articles and synopsis all the time, but breaking all this stuff would take me a few days.
However, even if broken down, I am not sure how it could be communicated in a clear way.
Here are my views.
*IMHO, EMDR is more of...
I got out of bedroom and am now in a park. It is healing me and giving me more confidence. Just saw a squirrrel and its awesome.
I have not watched news or stuff in two days and that has helped as well.
First Ellie, I am sorry you are having bad experience with your doctors whoever they are. If you can get other ones, Please do if you think hey are not helping you.
Medications are needed for many people and the key is to have a good and strong communication with your physician. It is...
Dear you..
Please do not extract vengeance. My incident is all due to others as well and I hope later on to consult legal aid to hold them accountable. However, if you do anything out of sync with the system, your abuser will only use it against you. Please trust me here. I have gone through...
He is nowhere close to a relationship at this stage is my opinion. He needs to heal to be able to stand on his own before he starts dating someone and being able to give something back.
I would honestly have this conversation or find a way to detach. This is not what you deserve and he will...
Don't be afraid of asking therapist to step back and try going through other bothersome things in your mind. Maybe you are not ready to confront the most pressing things yet.
I think it took me at least 5 sessions before I could even step close to my traumatic event and I was dreading it...
