you know....i used too...now tho, i don't...call it healing , call it what ever you want ...but if i need therapy for ever then i do...if i don;'t, well then i don't.

i figure i will probably always need to take certain medicines for the rest of my life (asthma, diabetis, etc)...maybe someday i'll be in a better place health wise where i won't need as much or any...maybe not...i consider therapy the same thing....medicine for my psyche

it took a long time and lots of abuse (sexual and child abuse) for my mind to get as "therapy needing" as it is now...and it will take a long time to heal it. i too express myself better thru the written word...it's just easier for me...and my therapist comments on this.

i have asked her how long will it take for me to get better...and her response is...with time....as in..."it took time for the damage to occur..it will take to to heal." makes sense...broken bones don't heal overnight...i wouldn't worry about if she thinks you are the worst person to walk into her office...if she didn't think you were worth her time she wouldn't see you. be patient...thats the hardest thing for me...even tho i know it will be a slow process i still at times want healing to happen overnight...
