The James’ On Psychotherapy

James Earl Jones and Old Aussie
From the company that brought you Monk-E Mail now comes Age-O-Matic. The idea is to upload a picture of yourself, answer a few questions about your job and then press preview to see an aged you. You can choose mail or female age progression. I did both but the males were funnier than the female aged Aussie so these are the one’s that got published. Age-O-Matic will serve as an update for this journal to describe the absurdity that is my therapy (Tuesday’s session anyway) So, click the pictures and let James Earl Jones and the late James Brown speak for Old Aussie or simply click the links.
So, I’ll show up tomorrow with the printed off and unedited version of the rant and rave by Destiny and bring it into the therapist. In all truthfulness, I planned to quit. I wasn’t even going to go to tomorrow’s session but I got a bit of encouragement to go back and let the doc know how I feel. I appreciate the feedback from the last journal entry cause I sure was ready to walk away. I need to give this some time, see if we can work this out, see if we can work together and sort through some of the issues I have with the sessions. A few times I’ve left thinking, I really like this guy but other times I think I could simply kick him in the knee and never come back. With those emotions at the opposite ends of the spectrum I can reasonably conclude that I’m not in a position to make a huge decision like stopping treatment with this fellow all together. I need time to get my yo-yo emotions under control to be able to actually see the real situation, is this me or is it him or an even mix of both? That’s still the pressing question.

probably some parts of you agree with him while others don’t. not unusual for us to have some who liked a T and other so-so and others couldn’t stand ‘em. Sounds like you are taking the most logical and common sense approach, he;s gotta hear you though!

I’m glad you’re going back. Therapy is supposed to be a safe place to work out conflicts, even conflicts with the therapist. You have to find out if he can handle all your ways, thoughts, feelings, behaviors… and if he can, you’ll be better able to work together.
