Responses To Your Therapist That You Will Probably Never Say

[Loveneverfails]

T: You'd think the government would want to keep you from taking it out on the people they've insured.
(my t on me getting denied 3 times for health care in spite of having 2 dependents and being unemployed and mentally ill)

What I'd like to have said: Yes because that's what mentally ill people do right? I mean I'm mentally ill, apparently to you I'm just a ticking time bomb.

M: Not really :eek: I see his point though

- I can really relate to this: I'm capable of picturing them actually laughing and talking about me behind my back.. :alien: (And the pictures my mind can make up are really vivid too! :D )

This is not a dialog really, but anyhow:

My T. talked to me about heavy stuff, like limits in a therapy-session for one thing. And about the possibility to be attracted and what the limits were.. I almost freaked out, and just numbed out, and went blank. Later he was pushing my limits by talking about that you sometimes can have a need to have physical contact and get hugged by someone(else than your kids) when you are in the kind of state I was after his first "pushing my limits". I really didn't understand why he was talking like that, since he know I can't trust my judgment enough to be able to let anyone that close, or cope with having a female friend any closer than giving her a short hug. And his words made me panic, and he saw it and tried to help me express what I was feeling.. That didn't work, since I couldn't speak and was just shaking and fighting the impulses to run out of the room. Then he said we could take a walk around the house if I wanted too... - I won't tell you what kind of pictures my mind was able to produce after him saying that(since they are just to dirty). :D :D :D

When I, a few weeks later, told him what kind of pictures those words about "taking a walk around the house" gave me the poor thing didn't laughed at all, only looked at me with a very strange look in his face(but me and my friend had laughed so hard about it outside therapy we cried and that laugh was what enabled me to be able to go back, even though his words about walking around the house freaked me out.. :) )..

Therapist: Why are you smiling? That's horrible!
What I say: I don't know
What I'm thinking: Why don't you tell me? Obviously I've got some wires crossed, here, and Id like to understand it myself!

Today when an appointment I thought was at 1 was actually at 12, so I missed it. The therapist said it was okay(of course I won't see her now until next week), and I wanted to say, no it's not okay.

T: So how has it been going

M: Oh you know the normal... Shaking talking to myself and shooting turkeys in the frozen foods department.

 

[Changing4Best]

Thanks, I needed a good laugh.

Shaking talking to myself and shooting turkeys in the frozen foods department.

:roflmao:

 

[shadowchaser]

Hey no problem. Was the first thing to come to my mind when she asked me that.

 

[Nighthawk]

T: Everything changes
M: Don't put Phycology 101 of nothing is constant and everything changes. Is it really change when it goes from A to C and back to A isn't that the same?
T: Looking rather confused

Ts favourite after each session is, 'So, what can you take away from this session'

and I always think 'well, that lily on your desk would look nice in my lounge'

hahahahahahaha!!!! My therapist had this really cool lamp that I always thought would look so cool in my apartment!

"Wake up!"


My former T fell asleep almost every session. Seriously. She nodded off while I was trying my best to verbalize traumatic events. I wasn't even being boring! Needless to say I'm done with therapy. Done.

 

[Hashi]

Isaley, I think be done with that therapist for sure. They're not all like that, though... that's outrageous. And in my view, that wasn't therapy. Please don't give up on it just because of her.
