  • Guilt

    Sunday, May 25, 2008 | A Call For Help story

    They say living with guilt is a awful thing.  I'm finding it to be true.  My son has so much guilt over his father's death.  He blames himself. (it wasn't his fault) It seems the last time they spoke they fought.  So, his way of handling it is to drink and do drugs.  My worst fear is come true.  I'm afraid my son is an alcoholic.  He hides the be...

  • What do I do?

    I am really feeling clueless right now.  My therapist is apparently looking to drop me from her caseload because I have strep throat and can't talk and have no idea when my voice will come back.  The worst part is, the system will let her do just that, because I'm being "noncompliant" by not scheduling a session with her.  I've asked if there is an alternative...

  • Therapists and other terrors

    Sunday, October 5, 2008

    Well, my therapist will only schedule me for one hour every other week, even though that is  the ONLY treatment I am receiving right now.   I had my case manager out to the apartment on Friday, trying to prove to them that I really am as bad as I've been telling them I am.  Her only comment was, "you need to be on meds," even though she knows full well that the d...

    Wednesday, August 12, 2009 | A Call For Help story

    AM going to try and write in my journal everyday and got more involved in DS. Its strange but if I read there is someone in need I feel so good if I can give a kind word but I dont feel I deserve a kind word. Am getting over the dreaded flu so am feeling a bit sorry for myself. Wish I could reach out for help. Just cant do it
