I’ve thought the bad ones owe me restitution. :-) Dennis — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

I have never been to a real therepist, but I have been to several doctors for panic attacks. My doc and my psychiatrist both like to complain about their jobs to me. — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

I believe in learn and live. If the therapist isn’t giving you what you need, find a new one… smiles, Elise

No. But my first psychiatrist (1966-67) was really sick (neurotic). I think she did me more harm than good. One time I came to her office feeling really good cause I had just bought a new golf jacket. She couldn’t stand seeing me feeling good cause my feeling bad made her feel good. So she went to town on me. And told me I must be REALLY sick if nothing but a new jacket made me feel that good. Hearing that made me feel BAD, and I went back into my depressed mode.

Have you ever thought that your therapist should, perhaps, be paying you, rather than you paying them? Yes indeed, a couple of my pdocs. I know one of them was on drugs (he had a huge Haldol mug on his desk and I know there wasn’t coffee in it cause I looked. We had a group therapist who was afraid of the group and left after the second session — he actually set up off on a dead end path of discussion. One of my pdocs actually handed me her script pad and told me to write my own (she was sticking it to me cause I was asking so many questions — questioning her knowledge). I like Elise’s answer. I’ve walked out on at least one. Luckily I’m happy with the pdoc I have now; altho, I wish he would off label prescribe. — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm

sometimes its helpful to mention it ; especially when they arent listening and dont plan to; saying something like, sometimes it seems like each of us are on the wrong side of the desk can startle them. ~v~ — The charter is available at: http://readystump.algebra.com/~asapm
