I just read an article about the VA not giving a diagnosis for the exact reason you said. She actually said why do you want a diagnosis...I will see an outside Dr if I need to, just not sure they will see me, wouldn't she have to give me a diagnosis if I requested to see another Psychologist...

Thank you for the research info, I will dive in...I had an appointment today, and told her the exposure she wanted me to do was a no go, way too aggressive, but some of it was not fun but tolerable to some extent but still did not like it. I told her we need to slow it down, I just learned I am...

I agree with you, and I will see if we can not slow it down a bit, I feel as if we are going too fast... I agree, she did ask if I had pictures of my accident and I told her I will look for them, I did make an attempt to go in a dealership but nope, nope, no way, I don't know what she expects...

Sideways, I am going to attempt this tomorrow with my wife, I can not do this alone, just the thought is giving me unwanted feelings. I will do my best but I also have a fear of letting my T down, and my wife said no, I need to focus on what I can do, uncharted waters...Thanks for your insight.

Thank you Eve, I will research soothing skills, please excuse my ignorance to my new world, I have to learn the terms and how to deal. This is all so new to me and going to sessions are hard because I have to talk about my trauma therefore, bringing back memories, flashbacks, and especially...

I do not know what grounding skills are, she has never said "grounding skills" This is all so new to me but I feel like this treatment is a bit aggressive.

Thank you eve, I refuse to do what she has ask I am not ready, I just learned of my condition two weeks ago although I have been suffering from it for years now, sometimes if the veteran does not do what they say they will enter "refused treatment" in our medical records. Thank you for this...

I am in something I do not understand, and I do not think she has given me anything but go to marinate in your trigger and remain there until you are good...I cannot see how that will help me

Everyone, please excuse me, I am new to what I am going through medically, and this blog, I have never been on a blog befiore so please excuse me, I have to learn it, I catch on quick, and thank you for all your help...

I am so new I do not know

I just signed up today 4/5/19 and please excuse me, I will try and learn how the site works. Thank you for all your help.

She ask me to bring in photos of my accident, and I will try to find them, this is not easy, I have no idea where they are. I cannot go to a dealership, I am scared just thinking about it. I will try and take my wife to help, but I do not see it going well. I have been suffering every since I...

Yes I did ask, she used pavlovas dogs as an example, she wants me to become comfortable with my triggers, I have not been diagnosed yet. Today was my 4th visit with her, I was sent to her because the VA has me on a low dose of opioids and I have been laid off work for 8 months and jobs in my...

My Psychologist wants me to go to a motorcycle dealership that will trigger me, and remain there until I feel comfortable? I can bearly think about going why does she want me to do this?
