I can understand your frustration and I feel it is important for a T to be a stable person for us to, see so weekly appointments are important. My new T told me when I first started seeing her that she makes a commitment to her clients and will very rarely take time off and that she would always...

I can understand why you would be worried and scared to go to this extra appointment. Its the fear of the unknown and what she wants to talk to you about. I am sure it will all go ok, she most likely just wants to check in with you again to see how you are going as a week is a long time to have...

I have been feeling very much alone for the past few weeks. I feel like the only person I have is my T and 1 hour a week is not enough. It is just so so hard when you feel so alone and don't know what to do with yourself. I am sorry I don't have any advise :(

I know how it feels to be really nervous about going to see our T's at times. I get nervous and my heart beats fast and I don't really know why. I have a fabulous T but still at times have this fear of her. I think you should make an appointment with him and stick to the appointment and turn up...

Congrats on 6 years, lovely photos. Have a fab day, hope you are doing something special to celebrate :)

I can totally relate to this. I live for my session with my T each week. I have my sessions each thurs and they have become my most favourite day of the week but once the session is over it is incredibly hard to think I have to wait another whole week to see her again. I feel so comfortable with...

I have been seeing my current T for about 4 months. I knew from the first session I had with her that she was going to be a good fit for me. I have seen changes in me since I have been seeing her, I have more confidence to get out and do things, things I would have worried about over and over in...

Hi Chava Glad you went to ER, thanks for coming back on here to update us. Hoping you have been able to get some sleep as sleep really does make everything else that bit easier. Sending you hugs and support to get you through the day

Hi Chava Sorry you cant get hold of anyone locally ....... we are here though! I know how hard it is to be having a hard time and feeling so lost and alone and not knowing what to do with yourself. Talk to us, and hopefully you can ground yourself so you are able to at least get a little sleep...

Do I worry?? hell yes!! I wish I had a switch on my brain that I could turn it off at times, my T tried to get me to work through my worry but it just didn't help. I over think things and go over every tiny detail of things in my head and think worse case all the time. argh

Sammy I don't care that you had a meltdown! What I care about is that you have come back on here to all your friends and talked to us. We are here for you whether you are happy or sad it doesn't matter we like you for who you are and we care xx

Sammy!!! I have only just found this thread now Please stay on here, we all love you! I totally understand writing and deleting and re writing trying to get it sounding right as to not offend anyone, but you haven't as far as I have seen ever offended anyone. You are such a kind gentle person...

The therapist I am working with now I knew in the first session that she was going to be a good fit for me. I am pretty good at reading people and I could just tell in the first session what a kind and gentle person she was and she explained everything and made me feel at ease. I am so so very...

I hate social situations, I am not good at small talk with people and always dread going. What I have found is that most situations are not as bad as I think they will be. I am sure your friend will appreciate you being there, I always have a back up plan as a way to escape if I feel...

*Sits besides the lovely Laurie and holds your hand* That guy was a f*cking arsehole for what he did, he was totally on the wrong! You were just a young small, scared boy and were not to blame for what happened. You are not broken, you are an adult now and he cant hurt you anymore. I understand...

Awesome to hear you have a big smile on your face :)

I think you should go ....... it would be good to talk to your T about the feelings you have about not wanting to go and wanting to run and what has been happening for you. I think it would be helpful for you to talk all this through with your T. Just my thoughts on it. :)

I feel your hurt and pain. Its not easy, it sucks when we lose a T for whatever reason. It has been a few months since I had to stop seeing my old T and even though my new T is fantastic and is a much better fit for me than my old one I still miss her. I have been lucky that I am allow to...

I can totally relate to just wanting to eat eat eat. My addiction is food, I am addicted to it like others are to alcohol, drugs etc. If you are sticking to mainly veges/fruit you shouldn't notice too much weight gain. For me I always want to eat the bad stuff so of course I have put on a lot of...

ACC will provide you with counselling so you can talk/work through your issues. It is important to find a counsellor/therapist that is a good fit for you to get the best results. You should be able to go through your doctor or you can google ACC sensitive claims and look for a counsellor in your...

Hi @Nick S ...... it is nice to see another kiwi on here :) I am sorry to hear what happened with your maths teacher :( In NZ people who have been sexually abused can get free counselling through ACC (sensitive claims) I would advise you to look into this to see if you qualify. Wishing you all...

Im glad to hear that you had someone to talk to. Get some sleep and tomorrow is a fresh new day to start over. You may have had a couple of slip ups but you are strong enough to get past them and not need alcohol. Alcohol will not rule your life, you wont let it! Wishing you a better day tomorrow :)
