My therapist will NOT be doing therapy with me anymore

14 years ago 0 +0 / -0 72

Hi Grumbles:

Just knowing you are there, helps me alot. Thanks.....

I am now being proactive on what occurred last week. I

am not wallowing in my self pity anymore.

I am creating my own contingency plan and I am feeling

really good about it. I have a purpose and focus to

get back to work by Nov 16, 2009. I am going on

waiting lists for about 3-6 months. I am doing what the

other agency may have put in place for me, b4 ending

my therapy.

I believe things happen for a reason, and just maybe there

is a silver lining under this cloud. I am learning more about

mental wellness, I am taking a needed break and looking after

me and I have professionals that are willing to help me.

I will be sending my plan to my pdoc and then we can discuss

it Nov 12/09, and I believe we can do good work together until

end of 2009.

Thanks everyone for being my support when I really needed it.

Hi:

I did the stupidiest thing AGAIN...I wanted help so I sent a LONG email

to my vp. I told him what I did last night, not a smart thing to do. NO RESPONSE

I asked if our school division can get resources or help me now. I guess it is just for

students and not staff.

I guess,No one really cares, and usually I get thru these things and NO ONE knows

in admin. Now did I destroy my f'n career, I loved and said if I don't have

that with those students, what willl I have? The SAD part is they say there

is services, and they tell you to tell others, but NO ONE listens, so why

try to do the right thing?

Struggling thru.....I know you are not a crisis service, and I tried...but I will

try tonight if no one calls, I promise....I will be sad, and angry, and hope

the professionals can come up with a plan for me. The agency wanted to

stop my therapy as of yesterday, then they conceded until I see my shrink.

I do NOT know if I can work with this therapist again, as I know she is

saying what I have, she can't help me with. She is afraid it would not be

helpful for me, however there are NO other ones who will look after this.

I am hoping my shrink will call, but all he says to me, is YOU know the

crisis services, use them etc...... I tried and look what happened......

I have sent out so many warning signals, but people are just too busy, or

NOT know what to do with me, just like my therapist. I don't deserve

that treatment, but that is all I can get here. Thanks for being a support,

I will just see if any one calls, b/c I tried to reach out....I will be OKAY

I really appreciate how members and educators have really helped me

this week. I am now going to sleepy sleepy......Bye Bye for now

Another thought can be the VP was NOT at school and did not get my email,

or other crisis have occurred in the school, and my priority is LOW again. I

should be patient with waiting, b/c that is all I do lately, wait for shrink,

wait for therapist....etc....why

I am sorry for rambling on, as I did that last night, and I may have LOST the

only career that meant so much to me. Hopefully this will NOT be the case

and I hope that people at school division understand and have a heart. I

just wish health professionals or people in power would listen to how much

this has hurt me, beyond comparison of anything else I have endured.

I am just venting as there is NO one to talk to and I feel lonely.....Thanks

Any suggestions for me or comments, and I know you are all sorry this has

happened, so am I. As the educators knew, I was posting this week very

thoughtful posts and I was on a good high. Now you know the mood

I am in. However it is not OVER for me and I am scared and frightened.

right now.

I am so sorry this has happened.

It is most certainly not your fault! Hang in there. There are people who can help you, who want to help you, and you are worth it!

Thanks Furgitti:

I tried to talk to our lines and I couldn't, I am just too upset. WHY WHY WHY

I am NOT a BAD person, am I. I will wait for my shrink to call hopefully this

week. Then hopefully I can sort this out, but in the mean time I need your support

please. I am goin to try to sleep and have a hell of a night and then pretend

again this didn't happen an go to work, and pretend all is okay when it is not.

That is hard to do ....I am afraid my shrink will NOT think this is a priority, and I

have to wait until Nov 12. That is too long to wait for my questions to be

answered.

I have come a LONG way since I started therapy 13 yrs ago with my shrink, and

now look what has happened. I have worked very hard on therapy, and now that

I am beginning to just understand myself, I am abandoned. It is NOT the therapist's

fault, but are there services in my area that will be able and willing to work with my

disorder. My shrink is the best in the city for this type of thing. He works over 50

hrs a week, and has strong, stringent boundaries...but where does that leave me?

Goodbye, I enjoyed posting to this board, thanks, you helped me thru the rough times.

I will try to be okay this week but it will not be easy.....

I am hurting so bad, and NO ONE seems to understand, and I CAN NOT wait for

my shrink to call me.....

Hang in there Windsybarbie,

I can totally relate to the feelings of betrayel from our health care system. Where I am we have, the Support Network, they are awesome people in times of utter crisis, and can help you from flying away. Maybe try your crisis line or see if you have a Support Network in your area. There is someone who can help you and remember you count too.

Keep us updated on how you are doing and what you find out.

Hi:

I was just told by the agency I was going to see a counsellor for a year, that I am too complicated

and this is not the right place for me. I am devasted, betrayed, abandoned from the agency

and therapist and mental health field. I guess my cognitive distortions were founded, as I don't

know what to do. They are looking at alternatives, but I am very upset and I don't think I

can wait until Friday to know what THEY decide. I feel like a piece of garbage that NO ONE

cares about. My shrink is TOO Busy to do therapy with me, I don't know if there is anyone

that can help with my disorder. It is NOT my fault, I have this, I now I AM being PUNISHED

for something I did not do. It is totally unfair, and I feel like to hell with everything....what is

the use....The mental health system in Canada is up to its maximum, I can't afford therapy my

self, and I don't know what shrink will say. My therapist feels bad, they said I could see her

until I see my shrink once a week maybe, or every 2 weeks. They said to continue with group,

but NO individual therapy. I am havaing a very difficult evening, because I feel abandoned,

betrayed, and no one cares about me. I am in trouble as soon as I express my feelings.

I don't understand WHY they are doing this. It is all my fault, b/c I have this disorder, and

no one will help me. I can ignore everything and pretend it never happened, and go to

NO therapy and just exist. How dare they do that.....
