Yeah, I meant, not to rush away from, I just meant that is something I haven't done much, although f2f hotels have been very nice.

I finally got a therapist to call me back, and I have an appointment next Tuesday.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Stick a candle in that taco, Steph, and make a wish. Happy Birthday!
Happy Book-aversary, Jilli!
And I'm glad you found a therapist, sj.

Thrive to spite them
So. I've seen the new shrink twice. He doesn't think I have bipolar disorder. He thinks I have severe low self esteem and emotional trauma from childhood illnesses/bullying and esteem issues that I developed unhealthy coping mechanisms (like racing thoughts) to, well, cope.
And that he wants me to start psychodynamic therapy and taper of lithium. He is willing to let me keep the klonopon for now.
I'm still processing but I don't know if I van find another shrink for a second opinion and I know I need therapy so I'm going to try it.
The practice is very very altmed. Maybe more than I'm comfortable with but I'm going to try this. I still am seeing the EAP therapist and I'm going to run this by her. I can't remember her therapy style but if this is what she does and she'll see me I may feel more comfortable. I don't know. I wish I could see 2 therapists at the same time to try them oout.

Not my area of expertise, but if what you are doing now isn't working then another approach may be what is needed. You need to be comfortable with and have confidence in the therapist. I'm really hoping this works out well for you.

Askye, I really hope this new approach works for you.
I'm not having a good day today. Lunch with friends seems to have taken all my spoons, despite being fun.

I'm sorry, sj. Take it easy on yourself. Spoons are understandably limited.
