A call for the therapists

i aint a therapist but i no how u feel. i dont want one but my mother is making me see one. if it is a weird phobia u r not alone

The point of therapy is opening up face to face. The reason none of you like therapy is because you are not ready for it yet.

Online therapy is like cybersex. it may look right, it may feel right, but it's not the real thing... not even close.

An odd, but strangely similar comparison Bret.

Anyway, I CANNOT stand therapists either. They annoy the hell out of me. They read too much into some things you say, when if they took their nose out of their books they'd realise what you're saying is the truth.

Getting therapy online is better than sitting there doing nothing about it though. I'm always here if you want to talk.

Take care of yourself. Head up.

You might not like them but talking to someone face-to-face is more effect, and it also helps if its someone you don't know. I'm not a therapist, sorry. If you really hate 'em, I hope you find someone to talk to then. xxx

What about psychologists and psycho-analysts Bob?

lol Bob!

I think sometimes people don't like therapists because they're not ready to open up and face things, and also sometimes people don't want to be helped just yet - like the way they are living, in the depressed routine, is safe to them, and making that big step out into the world again is too scary for them to even think about. Therapy will only help if you want it to help.

Then again, there are those few v shitty therapists who really talk a load of shit...not all of them are like that though.. I mainly hate those who look in their books too much, when each problem and each person is different...all too often they categorize you because you've answered yes or no to something they've asked...nagh.

p.s Eli, I think its a tad odd that you're saying you don't like therapists, but then ask for help here?? Maybe you just don't like what the therapist has got to say...
