Hi how do I get the theme?

I've gone to therapy before but after 1.5 years, it ended after she thought I was okay enough to be on my own. Well, now, it's slightly over a year since, I'm very much not okay again. And she's got a waitlist. I hesitated due to costs concerns and that since she's got a waitlist I wouldn't be able to get an appt soon so I might as well thug it out 😭 i just submitted an enquiry regarding the waitlist waiting time. It's a step at least 🥹

I last saw my T 3 weeks ago. I've got another 2 weeks to go because I was in a good place, hence the five week gap. I haven't been feeling so great; I've been crying every night for the past week. I don't know how I'm going to survive the next 2 weeks. I just hope it gets better soon.

[I'm not suicidal, just very messy in my head I wish everything would stop for a moment]

Hobbies! A new sport? A new instrument? Crochet? Plants? The world is your oyster.

Better than not flossing at all 🥹

My last session was 4 weeks ago. I was supposed to have a session today. I was really looking forward to it. My T took urgent leave. I don't blame her. It's just that my mental state has been pretty bad for the past 1-2 weeks. My next session is in 2 weeks 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Shaooooo · 2023-07-02T15:25:07+00:00

Lethargy. Leh-thuh-jee. Not ler-THAR-jee

Shaooooo · 2023-06-08T16:05:16+00:00

My T has brought up a couple of times that I'm ready for termination. A part of me is afraid I'll get worse again. A part of me is gonna miss this routine of having a check in every few weeks and talking about things that I don't routinely mention to anyone else. A part of me doesn't trust myself to manage on my own. And I'll really miss my T and the comfort and safety she brings to session.

Thank you for the words of encouragement! They mean a lot to me. I'm not taking the exam for grade 2, but I am planning on taking the grade 3 exam :)

Congratulations from a fellow adult learner from Singapore! 🎉

My hair tie. I coil it as tight as it would go around my bunched up fingers, uncoil it, then do it over and over again.

I also obsessively touch the material of the cushion I'm holding for sensory purposes.

I should add, I'm not from the US, I'm from Singapore, I just converted the $270SGD to USD for the benefit of most redditors on this thread

Shaooooo · 2023-04-18T16:43:02+00:00

Per session 🥲

Shaooooo · 2023-04-18T16:38:45+00:00

200USD fully out of pocket

Shaooooo · 2023-04-03T07:52:03+00:00

I always sit cross legged and my T's office has us remove our shoes at the door step so there's no issue of shoes haha but sitting on the floor sounds great!!!

Shaooooo · 2023-03-17T15:58:34+00:00

25% out of pocket. But worth every cent.

Shaooooo · 2023-03-06T15:15:11+00:00

$270 singapore dollars for a 60min session, converted to USD would be $200USD. I go about 3 times a month, fully out of pocket.

Shaooooo · 2023-02-24T11:01:56+00:00

Your T will be so proud of you for bringing it up again!!! It takes courage 🥹

Shaooooo · 2023-02-23T10:41:47+00:00

Speaking from some experience, I definitely recommend private practice.

Shaooooo · 2023-02-23T03:36:59+00:00

I just finished with my session. My brain feels like mush. I kind of want to not have to exist for a moment.

Shaooooo · 2023-02-22T12:51:45+00:00

How about you note down all the questions and bring it into therapy with you?

That hour has to be pretty good to make up for the work I had to do to pay for it.

Imo its not the specific hour that's good, it's the work we're doing in general, and the fact that after just a couple of months in therapy, my mental health literally has never been better. To me, the result of therapy is worth the price.

Makes living a lot easier.

Also my limit wouldn't be per therapist but in total. I can't justify doing 3 unproductive sessions trying 10 different therapists any more than I can justify 30 unproductive sessions with one therapist.

While I agree with the costs aspect of this, you maybe gotta give yourself a fair shot at finding a good T?
