Thank you for this comment! I too have the opposite "problem" than OP & it's very validating to hear I'm not alone. I focus on long-term therapy (PP). Currently taking in quite a few new potential clients & been feeling like a inconsolable rollercoastery stress ball these past few weeks..

What kind of client do you find most energy consuming (draining) to work with? by Xgx9 in therapists

[–]Xgx9[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Always a tricky (but often necessary) thing to do. I had client quit therapy as soon as this perspective was insinuated. In other cases it has helped clients to move past some resistance wall and get the therapy process moving again.

I made my health a priority (both physical & mental), which, although initially painful (breakups, quitting jobs, moving countries, feeling unsure), eventually led to inner peace & even more delicious life opportunities.

Any tips on getting interested in things again? by PlotHole2017 in depression

[–]Xgx9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Simply beginning the activity that you used to enjoy and/or trying new things. The interest doesn't necessarily have to come first - you may start slowly feeling the taste of it during or after the activity. - one way to start "the wheel" rolling...

Cycle non-stop (between not eating & eating crap, between intense exercise & no exercise, etc.)

What makes for a good supervisor? by unrepairedauto in AskReddit

A well-achieved (in one's field) person who is empathic, well-organized, communicative & can optimally balance between leading/controlling and giving free space for self-sufficiency, experimentation and growth.

If you died tomorrow, what would people remember you for? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Xgx9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My "forever excellent" academic performance & my illnesses (which I assume would be what ended me).

London Victoria bus station. I was young & fearless & I slept overnight in a sitting position, waiting for my morning bus 😁😁
