therapy?...me?.....nah

yeah, thats what everyone says, (or if not says is thinking) but in all honesty, if you dont go to therapy or seek some form of outsde help (aside from your dog, pastor, and aunt sylvia,) then i can't consider you normal.

to me a therapist is the friend that no one wants to talk to but secretly everyone knows has the right answers. And by answers i dont mean that they tell you what to do. Becasue that is something they do not do.

i would know...im studying to become one myself.

they simple paraphrase what you have said, arrange questions in ways that get you thinking about yourself, and hve you say the solution yourself. All they are there for is to listen.

now i know you may think... "then what the hell am i paying somebody to listen to problems for when i can to my friends?"

well with your friends they can give bias solutions. Solutions that may be good for them but problematic for you. Therapists come from a mindframe of right nor wrong. Ever wonder when you ask them something and you say ".......right?" that they then ask you "....well do you think it's right?" this is all to get you to understand your own thoughts.

otherwise you wont get anywhere on your own when you depend on others to think for you. Life..my friend, does not operate like that.

so today..i say..

r u crazy?!
go see a therapist
you'd be insane not to go
