Re: RE: Therapy issues

December 31, 2003

Last year I used those services especially with trying to deal with my father's

death. His death was a horrible experience in that it was my first ever death

I've had to encounter and the fact that he and I were not close was even worse.

Plus he died in front of us screaming as if not ready to go so that made the

whole experience something that I still have yet to get out of my mine. I also

encountered situations (attitudes) at work following my surgery as well as 4

more deaths so it seemed to have worked for me at first, but then I never went

back and she never followed up to check and see how I was doing. Still having

episodes, but I'm getting over it slowly. Still on meds, but focusing my mind

on other things that seems to make me feel somewhat better.

Speaking of focusing my mind on other things, Ron and I are leaving tomorrow

morning going to the mountains snowmobiling and that definitely takes my mind

off things.

RE: Therapy issues

LOL...is it just me, or does there seem to be a large number of us who

are/have been " crazy " and required the serves of a mental health

professional?

Beth:

Could be the mo thing. I always said to Tim that I wasn't going to be

able to lose weight and keep it off until I got my head screwed on

right. Thank God for this surgery, because though I do still have some

issues with the eating, etc., a lot of it has worked itself out along

the way. Am I open to going for more therapy? Sure, at some point. I

have so many things stored up on the shelf in a closet in my head with

the door bolted closed that someday its all going to come tumbling out.

However, for right now, the door's hinges are holding strong. : )

Also, you can look at the fact that there are over 3,000 of us on this

list, could just be a matter of statistics of why it seems so many of us

have sought psychiatric help.
