You are in such a unique place that "one" of anything isnt' going to help you. There's a good possibility that it's not the right therapist for you. Keep trying until you find the person who hears you with compassion. but keep trying don't throw up your hands after one visit...imagine if you had done that in regards to your current physical health? What a mess you would be now...possibly dead.

That said... yes love you are crazy... meant with compassion and caring!

Anyone else out there have this experience... first counselor wasn't right for you so you moved on and found someone who was?

Did it take a long time? Was it worth the search? Did it not work and endly badly?

I look forward to counselign because I can say things to them, I could never say out loud even to myself when I'm alone. It helps me tremendously. I am starting a new counselor in 2 weeks... trying a program at the college, very exciting stuff.
