do I tell the T what the T wants to hear?

well....dear friends....despite my apparent hostility which I insist was partial.

this end of the PC is not a delicate one.!!

imitating life perhaps as we untie the knots of psychotherapy as it entwines me or you or us.

It 's a BIG deal to entrust a life and all inclusive with a temporary human....

a human equipped with a door that shuts immediately after ....whatever it is that happened...that might have been anticipated or not.

that human that ticks me off but consumes me all day and observes the anti-climax at the same time as me.

therapy is a waste of time for me....and I will be honest..
right up front!

am I the only one who does not benefit from people who think they know better?

and if it's possible be objective...I already know I'm a dickhead...just a smart one

it's not about SMART!!!

good suggestion. So - are you prepared to do this? and take your therapy seriously at last or continue to manipulate and get nowhere ?

it will take courage.

Only you can do it.

let us know how you go.

honestly???....I have always taken my sessions with sincere and delicate purpose.

and this may finalise this thread as I be completely truthfull!

I lack the interpersonal skills required for a productive T and client relationship....you would have to sit with me for 5 minutes to know what I mean. the T is only toooo happy to see me agree because the alternative is uncomfortable and I feel it.

a borderline bipolar adhd nasty lookin guy?

Only one T was cool with that and he had a stroke.

....so Earthmamma is maybe right......the problem is with me.

and I went and proved it by getting pissed off about it

I don't agree with this.

I have sometimes been in a therapeutic discussion where I thought everyone was against me. I would have been encouraged and grateful if someone had taken my side.

If anyone wants to triangulate for me, I'll cool with that.

Double monkey, peace! I can take as good as I give.
