Journal Entry for April 9, 2008 Mood
Wednesday, April 9, 2008 | A General Update story

SO I WENT BACK TO SEE MY PSYCHOLOGIST AGAIN YESTERDAY.  HE TOLD ME HE WANTED ME TO DO THREE THINGS FOR HIM.  FIRST OF ALL HE WANTED ME TO FIND OUT ABOUT PROJECT MOBILITY SO I CAN DO THINGS BY MYSELF.  THE SECOND THING WAS TO FIND OUT ABOUT GETTING MY CAR MODIFIED SO i CAN DRIVE AGAIN.  THEN THE THIRD THING WAS TO TAKE A CAB SOMEWHERE BY MYSELF TWICE BEFORE I SAW HIM AGAIN OR NOT TO COME BACK.  hE IS RIGHT ABOUT MY NEEDING TO GET OUT BY MYSELF.  I USED THE WEATHER AS AN EXCUSE  FOR  AWHILE BUT THAT REALLY WASN'T RIGHT SINCE I COULD HAVE GONE TO THE MALL AND WHEELED MYSELF AROUND.  SO NOW I AM DETERMINED TO GO OUT BY MYSELF.  wHAT HAS REALLY UPSET ME IS THAT IF I DIDN'T DO IT TO NOT COME BACK.  THAT REALLY HURT MY HEART.  hE SAID HE DIDN'T THINK HE COULD HELP ME IF I DIDN'T DO THESE THINGS.  AND THEN AT THE END HE SAID I NEEDED TO STOP FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF.  NEVER SINCE I LOST MY LEG HAVE I FELT SORRY FOR MYSELF.  I HAVE BEEN DPERESSED SINCE THEN AND THOUGHT THAT GOING TO A PSYCHOLOGIST WOULD HELP ME BUT INSTEAD HE HAS MANAGED TO DEPRESS ME EVEN MORE.  I DON'T KNOW FOR SURE WHAT TO DO NOW.

    PLEASE find yourself a grief therapist/counselor, with a lot of experience, who will listen to you, will be empathetic & understanding, loving & supportive, and who will help you manage your two HUGE losses. Don't listen to someone who is going to be demanding of you, & who gives you ultimatums that make you feel worse than you already feel. Sweetie, you need a GRIEF therapist now. xo, Alexis

    Sounds to me like this therapist might be fine for a wayward teen with a bad attitude, but not for an adult who needs encouragement and understanding. Any chance of changing to a new therapist? I don't think this guy is helping or even trying to help!
