I have had 2 sessions with my new T and she seems lovely but I just don't know if this is going to work.
I had such a long wait (5 or 6 weeks) between sessions and my next appointment is now not until December.
A few things ticked me off...but the biggest thing was she sat behind her desk...
What an apt thread ... I posted a #metoo today on FB and it kinda blew up in my face.
My head is all over the place... I just wrote a reply and managed to screw it up ...
I spent ages agonising if I should or not and decided it was for a good cause raising more awareness re the prevalence of...
I have this struggle every Sunday. Some weeks I'm happy that I have a headache or something so I have a legitimate excuse for why I'm not going.
For me I don't cope well with change and I had to find a new church this year and it all just sucks. The new church is good, good solid bible teaching...
That really sucks. At my uni we have reasonable adjustments which is like your accomodations I think? I had to get a letter from my local GP stating what my disabilities were and how they affected me and suggested adjustments that could be made. I'm not sure if that might help? It makes it more...
Glad you are able to reach out. If the SI is bad please go and get help from your T or at a hospital. In the mean time is there anything that can help ground you or at least distract you from the noise in your head.
Stay safe.
Maybe bring it to the attention of the police that a known sex offender is making films of public areas where there is potential for children to be present. It might not get rid of him but they might come round and have a chat to him about it enough to get him to take the camera down?
Is it possible for you to go to a hospital especially for ptsd. I'm not sure what it is called over in USA but I'm sure one of the regulars would be able to help.
Really sorry you are feeling so bad. Just know it is safe to vent here and people are always online to listen even when it feels like there is no one around.
I only got in last time as there was a cancellation. I am back on her cancellation list now so hopefully, I can get in again sooner. I'm hoping once I have seen her a few times I can be on her books and will get a more regular appointment.
I finally got in to see a new T last week which was good but I think it is going to take time to work out if we are a good fit... problem being my next appointment is not until October! In the mean time, my support worker changed jobs and my new support worker who was supposed to be taking over...
Thank you so much for your reply. It did help. I must admit things didnt get much better between me and her but only 1.5 days to go till i start the long journey home and i can have some very much needed time out. I plan on having some 1 on 1 quality time with my fur baby and just sitting back...
Im not coping very well. Currently triggered badly by my nephews 1/2 sister. I took 2 weeks off uni to come up to queensland to look after the kids (13, 11 and 5) while my ex sister in law is overseas. My little pseudo neice is around 5 and i just constantly feel on edge and severely triggered...
Not sure if it helps but you are not alone. I have 2 fresh burns and arms full of scabs from where i keep hurting myself. I currently dont have a T or anyone to talk about it with. Im glad you were able to tell your T. Take care.
I recently went through the loss of my T (I had 1 session to deal with the news she was finishing up) and it hurts like hell. Ive been spiralling down pretty badly ever since. The new T i was referred to isnt working out and so now I have no one. Not sure what advice to give you. ... Maybe see...
Oh wow... that sucks. That is like one of my worst nightmares right there. Try to be kind to yourself. As Zoie33 said the chair must have been pretty weak or possibly already slightly broken beforehand. Maybe write to your T and just explain how embarrassed you are feeling. I'm sure they will do...
