Thanks for the post Jono. It was the ' you need to change the channel in your brain' statement that really got me. My mind is filled with a black cloud right now and there is NO way to change the channel to anything else.
To my therapist's credit, she did text back and said she was sorry, and that maybe we could talk and work out what I want from therapy. I told her I want understanding, compaassion, and yes, even sympathy, though I know you're not supposed to ask for that. And that I did NOT want to be told what I should do to feel better. That makes me think of my Mom, which is not a good thing. I told her no therapist in the world can fix me, and I will always need meds, despite her claim early on in our therapy that eventually I wouldn't need meds. That is an impossibility.
So we're gonna meet today on a trial basis and see if she can treat me the way that will help me. I do really need to see someone. Ritalin has completely given up on me and I'm tired of leaning on my family. We'll see.
KatIve got a really bad disease
Its got me begging on my hands and knees
So take me to emergency
Cause somethin seems to be missing
Somebody take the pain away
Its like an ulcer bleeding in my brain
