At the end of the day it was always to feed myself and not really get the help I needed. Maybe it's because they weren't good enough lol. Anyhow life is what it is, get up everyday and be all you can be. After that what else?? Doc or no doc!! Btw with no medicine for a month now I feel normal!! Relatively speaking ha ha ha....
Yes, I have had similar problems. Therapy has proved to be just a game I'm playing, over and over again. It's not worth wasting my time. I think that some people are simply beyond "professional" help, not in the sense that they cannot be helped, but in the sense of well, some people are just too complex for that. Issues like narcissism are hardly simple, and add into the equation that most therapists have no idea of what to do if one walks into their office... There you go. It just isn't going to work.

I've found far more answers outside of psychology. I left it all entirely because to be frank they kept changing my diagnosis seemingly every two weeks. It was ridiculous and I didn't have the time (or money) to put up with it anymore.
