So I'm still determined in my passion to eventually offer psychological services to antisocial individuals; my goal being not to try and change people with this diagnosis, but see if I can help them get to a place in their lives where they can be the most content when dealing with society's restrictions.

So....

I really want to emphasize expression-I want to change the traditional look of this bland, totally neutral stereotype...that is, if you HAD to see a therapist, or just had an interest, would you rather talk to someone covered in tattoos and piercings?

In general, what would an ideal session, a space in time for your individuality, look like?

Any thoughts would be great as I get closer to grad school here at the end of this semester.

Take care,

I personally dislike tattoos and piercings, but if the therapist is good, those things would not deter me from seeing him or her.

Oye, you know I thought about it today, and I realized I have a selfish motive. I'm so torn! I really want sleeves, but if it means breaking neutrality that would be awful. It would be kinda obvious too...I want a few bands-children of bodem and lost prophets, linkin park....but mainly I wanted shackles and chains running up one are, and then slowly breaking down the other from black and grays to a rainbow, gay/lesbian flag down my left arm.

I wish there was some way I could express that I'm going to be real, down to earth, non-judgmental. My philosophy may be flawed, but I truly believe in living the "happiest"/content/ non miserable life one can. I don't care who you are, at some point their is a level of "unpleasure-ableness" that sucks-and I feel that everyone, no matter past deeds-has a chance at contentment/non-misery.

If I am flawed for thinking that..oh well lol one life. If you got a disorder that for abuse or genetics makes you unemphatic, might as well make the best of it.

take care,
