I had a virtual follow-up appointment with my pdoc this afternoon. These appointments don't amount to much. Eight or ten minutes (via ZOOM at the moment) & it's done. He asks me how I'm doing. But I don't know what to say. It would take a lot longer than 8 or 10 minutes to cover it.
 I think... sometimes... no... a lot of the time, I should consider giving therapy another try. (I've tried seeing a few therapists in the past. But it never amounted to anything.) But then I think... what's the point? I'm 72 years old. Spend a bunch of money so I can (hopefully) die happy? It would be nice to have someone to talk to. (Currently I have no one.) But I'm not going to be making any significant changes in my life at this late stage. So... what's the point?

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
