I was in group therapy with a councelor that broke down. It was a bad situation, as they suddenly told us that we had been in therapy too long, and they were breaking up our group. We were very upset. Then they began in the counceling sessions individually to see why we weren't advancing and getting better as fast as they would like and started doing personality tests, and blaming it on hard to treat personality disorders, when it was just bad counceling gone horribly awry. If the Therapists can't take it when they care for those in need, they need another profession.
I don't know you. I can't tell you why you are considered abnormal. People do put a lot of emphasis on what they wear as to is it normal or not. Same for social expression. You deserve a professional psychiatrist and therapist who is well educated on such personality disorders. They avoid because it's hard to treat personality disorders, that is what I was told.
You put a lot of information out there, thank you. One of the things I looked at with this disorder said something about belief in the paranormal, I haven't seen that any where since that article I read. I guess this is partly what they mean by magical thinking. But shouldn't include people with pagan or wiccan beliefs, as that is saying your choice of religion makes you abnormal and that's just not fair.
Well to be brief as possible to as what happened when the shrinks broke down on me.....it general went like this:
Doc: How can I help you?
Me: I dont think you can.
Doc: Why?
Me: Because you cant change the way normal society thinks. When reality is so obvious, but normality is what society dictates us to live by.
Doc: hmm, what is reality to you?
Me: Reality is what happens when we go with the flow of things, such as nature, animals sleep when tired, eat when hungry, etc.
Doc: True, and humans want to control their environment around them.
Me: And humans can not always control what happens to them.
Doc: Well, My wife was raped and murdered, than my father was deprogrammed after becoming retired from military intelligence....(doc starts sobbing...than becomes uncontolled weeping and shaking)
-----I call receptionist, she calls ambulance....Doctor goes to hospital...etc.

Basically same thing, just different stories....maybe I have an aura that says feel free to dump on me....:*) who knows
