Three weeks ago I finally connected with a counselor / therapist. We talked for nearly an hour and as we scheduled another appointment she says "we've got lots to talk about". My second encounter was yesterday - it started off fine - "how are you doing?", "do you think the meds are helping?" and she gathered more personal information. Then she proceeded to write another prescription for additional meds. She scheduled another appointment and then said good bye. At this point I stopped her - I explained that I had been looking forward to this session - I thought I finally had someone to talk to - someone who would listen without judging. Now she explains that she only coordinates and prescribes medications - she is not a counselor. She indicated that I needed to find a therapist on my own. I left the session in tears and cried for nearly an hour - that was 24 hours ago. I feel as if I have regressed a whole year. I don't need more medications ... I need someone to listen ...

Ya. I'm sorry. It's a blast, isn't it.
I'm in the same boat. 😥 I am very thankful for our forum. Now my computer has started failing. I'm stressed I won't be coming here much longer either.
I hope you find a helpful therapist soon. I know the struggle of trying to look for someone is no fun now. Is there anyone to help you look?
