So, we're left with each other: The damaged trying to help the damaged. I'm not sure that this is the best way. Please prove me wrong.  |
There do seem to be a few therapists on here, but they post from a client's perspective. I think its not so much that therapists don't care enough to help but rather that this forum is meant to be peer support, so therapists aren't "supposed to" be chiming in with any kind of "authoritative" voice.
But I think you might find it enormously helpful- lots of people here at different stages in the whole therapy thing, and much collective wisdom. I have learned a lot from people here, and it has made my own therapy much deeper and more rewarding.
