Ok i never followed up with you guys on this. I stopped going to the shrink i was approved to see. long stroy short he was a wierdo with control issues (just like me )

No but seriously. second session i went and of course i bring kayla with me. and this guy does this in his house and we go thru the whole taking of of the shoes. then he decides he doesnt like where my car is parked and asks me to move it. THE ENTIRE STREET WAS EMPTY. I WAS NOT BLOCKING ANYTHING. I WAS NOT IN FRONT OF ANY OTHER HOUSES OR ANYTHING. there was NO REASON why my car couldnt stay where it was on the opposite side of the street. it had to be RIGHT IN FRONT of his mailbox. Why? No clue. so i put my shoes back on and kayla's shoes back on, got in the car and moved it. was that good enough? NO. he wanted it a certain way. i had to move back a little then up a little etc. so by the time the car was where he wanted it, we went back in, took off our shoes again, and sat down. his wife begins cooking something that smeeld god awful. the kitchen was adjacent to the room we were in. so i got up andi said i appreciate everything but i was done and wouldnt be back. I was not comfortable at all.

the following week, after deleting EIGHT voicemails from him asking me to call him, i get a package in the mail at work. His home made flyers and a handwritten note with "please refer me to your organization" scribbled on a ripped piece of paper W-I-E-R-D-O.

I complained to the benefits coordinator. I am sure they wont do anything about it, but whatever.

I can say I think that yes i hit bouts of depression, and yes i sit in the dark a lot (hence the new pic in my sigature) but it doesnt seem all that abnormal to me. I dont think I need to be institutionalized or anything. I just think I have hit a rough patch and once things settle down in my life I'll be alright.

Thanks for reading my novel.

PS. NEAS (Employee Assistance Program SUCKS) I would never go thru it again. I would never refer anyone to it no matter how cheap it is. it took them 4 months to approve me for therapy and find me someone and this is what they found me LOL!!

Good for you. He does sound like a weirdo. If you had issues when you first went to him can you imagine how you'd feel if you would have kept going to him. Did you check his credentials? Anyway we will all have rough patches and we will survive. Just keep coming back here. We all have each other. Somebody cares about you. Mattie

Wow, he sounds like a total psycho. Do you have a pastor you can talk to?

[BOOTS]

Lol That Is Too Funny He Sounds Like He Has A Screw Loose. Lol Lol.

I Think You Will Be Fine And You Have All Of Us!

Sounds like a hypnotist I went to once for weight control. It was in his house and he takes you back to a bedroom and has a vibrating bed. Talk about creepy. I was so tense I wouldn't let myself go under, I was afraid of what he would do. Never went back!!!

Talk to your PCP, maybe he can suggest someone or put you on anti depressants for a little while.

It is sooooo hard finding the right therapist? I know this, i have had many. I had one when i was in high school that kept showing up where i worked and would ask me if i liked him. I did not go back. But i also had one that if it was nice outside we would go have our meeting outside and smoke cigs. She was so cool. And i have had alot in between. I am currently looking for one now. I have a couple of mental things that i take meds for, i am stable on them, but my phyc wants me to meet with someone to make this journey easier. I guess ill see.

What a freakin' weirdo, HE needs to see a shrink! I go through "dark" times too, my husband says I make our room a "cave" and go into it. I am on an anti-D mostly for panic disorder, it dosn't do much for depression when it hits, I just become cavewoman.

[Chilly]

Hmmmmm......sounds like the shrink needs a shrink!!!! lmao Maybe you can invite him over and torture him!!! lol

[Kenyar]

i am guessing i am fine. a lot of my self hate and down ness comes during TOM. so i would hope that i am safely assuming mood swings are sway from either extreme as a result of my wls??? im either extremely hopeful and very satisfied with life and my decision, or i hate the world lol! there is no in between just yet. and im ok with that. i guess. i dont think i need a shrink, or meds just yet. not to say i am not open to it if and when the time comes. but i am glad to know that i can come on here and post away and find at least one person who has had a similar experience. LOVE IT HERE

what a fruitcake (the shrink, NOT YOU!!!)....no wonder you left!! and what's up with the shoes?!?!?!?

Everything happens for a reason and there are no accidents in God's plan....so you are better off where you are....!
