"Fitting soundtrack......"
No. Your amazing clever intelligent observations are so ....exciting to read.

( Now, just to let you know that writing this has taken all energy out of me....)

You are so clever I'm reading your message again and again, hang on Ille just grab the dictionary........

I agree with your statement that people judge themselves with how sharing caring they are......
Then get 'ungrateful,' or as I say....grouchy if you don't worship them from afar...........

And I agree that your dwelling on your last therapist. I remember reading a Susie Orbach book on how her patients affect her and how she has done badly with patients in the past......the book is called, 'The Impossibility of Sex,' and she wrote of the relationship that she has with some of her successful and failed clients...
And, it feels that your therapist didn't tolerate anyone who didn't think like him/her. And got burnt out straight away......

I'm going to rave on about this book and others like it like Bruce Fink who writes about Lacan and how Lacan writes that you do not go into therapy as a therapist and sit around talking about what is similar about each other....... But say, oh, that's a way of doing it......personally. That not how Ide do it. But I'm really interested in how you would do it........'

could you sit with someone and listen to someone's feelings and they be so different than you??

So, you met a therapist who isn't like you and needs to score points with his ego,,,,,,,is this right??
Crikey. That sounds like 'not a place to find your own peace and spirituality .....but like your shopping for your groceries and bargaining for cheaper vegetables......

Please write please write. I can show off my pseudo intelligence .



My new thought is that I've got sleep apnoea and that's why I'm knackered.....

I digress (again) .......
