I have a feeling if I ask for stimulants, she will say what she said when I asked for sleep aids, "Lets avoid anything addicting"
Im so tired of hearing that. Ive quit more "addicting" things in my life than many people can imagine. I really have. Im not interested in becoming non functioning.
Im sorry if it sounds like Im ranting. It has nothing to do with you. Im pretty upset at the moment. I just came from my first session of therapy. She wants to connect all my mental and pysical ailments to my traumatic childhood.
I dont even care. Ive tried meditation, (shes recomending relaxation therapy), yoga, every diet imaginable, scads of vitamins, chiropractry, accupunture, and God. Some of those things are still very much apart of my life. They have all helped at some level. None them have alleviated my mental quagmire.
I just want to get on with my life. Im so tired of people telling and not listening to me.
Thanks for listening.
