Responses To Your Therapist That You Will Probably Never Say

I told her I could not pay my copay this month and she said to come anyway! I was surprised.

Do you use white strips or have your teeth bleached by a dentist?

How do you manage to smile so much working with people with problems and sadness all day?

Why do you have all these stuffed animals here in your office? I like them, but I am curious.

You are totally rocking those skinny jeans, dude.

I feel like we should be digging deeper into my past, why do you only deal with today's stuff?

Me: You talk too much. You have these weird references to current culture or television or some nonsense that I don't even get. You confuse me sometimes.

(I actually really want to say that now)

Did you see that on facebook?

My therapist is leaving soon for maternity leave. I am not going to tell her that people leaving throw me for a loop. Logically I understand she is not doing this because of me. Now let's see how the logic plays out when she is actually gone.

Oh Britt, that is so hard! How long will she be gone?

 

[Britt.f7]

6 weeks. But longer for my location. She will be at the other location because it is closer to the hospital and her home. So I have a choice of seeing someone else, not seeing anyone, or going out to the other location.

To my former counselor that I never asked her about, I have a question.

When you would start to yawn, I would keep talking but now I wonder if I was supposed to stop and just leave and go home, so you could take a nap? Or is it something that I was saying that was so traumatic about what happened in my life, that you would just sit there and start yawning.

I guess I will never know but I do wish I had spoken up at the time and said something to her, because it was quite obvious to me when she did it.

@Let It Be To give her the benefit of the doubt, I sometimes get into what I call are yawning fits and they have nothing to do with when I am bored. Maybe she had the same issue. Or maybe she timed things poorly. But if it was enough times to cause you to remember that is definitely a problem. My therapist use to fidget. Now she seems to be very careful about not doing so ever since I mentioned it to her.
