I stumped myself thinking this through
sadly, although i've been in therapy on and off since i was 17, and i am now 63, i can't think of more than 2 therapists that did more than dig me out of a hole
one, a man--the other a womanboth straight forward and accessible
i now go in for brief conversations with a psychiatrist who helps me with my meds and is a fine fellow (for 15 minutes) and i think knows more about meds than most
if i do go back into therapy
1) it would not not not be with a psychiatrist (their distance thing is just to weird for me)
2) i would walk out the first time i was told that i was okay even thought i was feeling awful
3) in general it would be low tolerance for BS on the part of the therapistAs people who need help i think we are abused by the power-tripping of the medical world
for now i'll check in for my scripts
