So yeah went to the councelling session today. I didn’t cry, go me. She insists on telling me how brave i am to have overcome this this and this, as always. Sometimes i think she just doesn’t know what to say to me. We talked about the fact that my education is a shambles. She suggested i should aim towards a degree in youth work, because of how i’ve always been so focused on helping others. That i should be aiming towards a caring profession. Social work and psychiatry is a no no, but if teaching isn’t going to work out for me then i should aim towards youth work and be a councellor. I might look into it. No idea how i’d ever get there since i’ve no A-levels but considering my vast experience with youth workers and councellors…all of these things are looking unlikely but i can’t stay in media so i’ve got to pick something.
She doesn’t like the fact that i’ve taken up self harming again. I didn’t want to tell her but she specifically asked so…
Anyway. Another doctor’s appointment on Friday. They’re going to be fed up looking at me soon. I wouldn’t even know where to start, because i’ve never had this doctor before and i dunno what to say to him. Not looking forward to it, but i just want this crap to end 🙁 i don’t even care how anymore. If this situation has a positive outcome that isn’t death, then i’ll take it. If death is what i’m left with, i’ll take it. I just want peace.

What’s even more fun is when an MD shrink leaves a voice mail message telling you to find someone else to help while in a medical crisis he created (ending in a stint inside the nuthut). It’s gonna be a while before I get over that one (especially now the hospital bills are coming due). Meanwhile, I have found one excellent PhD shrink and temporarily working with another MD shrink for meds. I have another assessment in Nov with an MD shrink that has a waiting list cuz he’s supposedly that good. What my long-winded post is trying to say is that despite feeling like crap, I’m still worth the effort to keep that Nov appt (made in Aug, btw). You are worth the effort to see someone new too. Hang in there. Xoxo RK
