Met with a new counselor today. Shall be the 3rd one for me. The first one sad “Use mindfulness ” and it will get you through when times are tough. Yeah right. Ok. I don’t think so.
2nd one was helpful at first . We did sme EMDR sessions and that really helped but she was more like a school teacher. Always giving me handouts ad then she would read them to me. Sorry but I can read. She seemed very unorganized but she was very nice. Then she scheduled my next appt then totally forgot to write it in her book. There was constant interruptions on her cell phone so I decided time to move on. I totally quit therapy after that except for m Psy.Dr. Problem is I only see her once every 6 weeks and that doesn’t always work.
Recently noticed that I started feeling really, really good. Lots of energy. Can’t sit still. But also started forgetting things. And then I’d get really pissed over the smallest things then I’d be back to full of energy. Got worried about maybe hypomania coming on so decided I’d better do something quick s here I go. Counselor #3. First meeting was good so we’ll see how it goes from here.
I really need some CBT type of therapy and some anger management also. She says she can help. I hope she can. Good luck to her.
I’ll follow up after our next session. Peace y’all.
