I would love to have the opportunity to receive therapy from Dr. Phil. I believe I would stay in therapy if I had one who wanted to focus on the issues at hand. I have been in Therapy for most of my life. I have had more counselors than I did teachers in School. More Psychiatrists who have written me scripts than MDs (yes i am aware that they r MD’s, duh! u know what I mean) and honestly I’m still a mess. It always seems that when I go to talk they have their mind-set on other issues.
It sucks because once I finally get to a point where I have told them all the crap from years 1-25 they (and this has happened so many times to me) QUIT! I’m serious, they quit. I get assigned another therapist or shrink and then its back to square one. I have yet to be able to speak with a therapist about y I came there. I have never been ordered therapy, i have always sought treatment for myself. I’m not ashamed to admit I have been diagnosed multiple times with multiple things from multiple therapists all from the same Treatment center. LIFESPRINGS . I don’t think they got it yet.
How does one heal and grow when it’s very possible that abandonment is a major issue for u and those u seek to help u keep quitting on you?
Did I mention I have been doing this for years? Our lovely state of Indiana was kind enough to help me with medication and treatment for all of my adult life, to the tune of $1500.00 a month in meds, Medication that when I didn’t take it, it was obvious to EVERYONE. Medication that after ump-hundred concoctions, actually made me feel semi-normal, until Indiana decided at the beginning of 2011 I no longer needed. They said I no longer fit the criteria, because I’m not suicidal or homicidal. (id like to kill some of them… if u want to know the truth!!! also the truth, I wont!) So I no longer qualify for any benefits therapy or medication.
So back to Dr. Phil do u think he is up for the challenge? I watch him and I listen to his advice, to others, he had a show about domestic violent relationships yesterday that my husband and I watched together. He isn’t afraid to tell u the truth, and its pretty hard to argue his intelligence. How oh how can I get into see him? I believe I have a new mission. (:
