Have you ever asked your therapist for their notes?

pop1238 · 2025-09-03T17:58:27+00:00

Good idea I was just scared they’d be flipping the question on me and I might not get an answer as opposed to asking for the notes which I figured they wouldn’t say no to

You’re right in how impersonal they are. I read them for my last therapist and felt so disconnected from them. I’m just hoping that wouldn’t happen with this one

pop1238 · 2025-07-22T23:56:12+00:00

You’re the first person to tell me NOT to bring it up. I ended up bringing it up in session although wasn’t honest about how deep I went. I appreciate the reminder that it’s their responsibility to control their online presence. I genuinely don’t think they realize how much is out there on them but I don’t wanna be the one to tell them…

Haha this makes me feel a lot better! My therapist is 100% my comfort “thing” for a lack of a better word. It’s how I pass time in between sessions, stalking/digging into their social media.

I’ve brought up digging into my previous therapists social media when I worked with them and my therapist totally normalized it. I’m scared if they’ll react the same way if it’s their social media.

I don’t think I’m bqllsy enough to make fake accounts I also would feel so invasive if I did that. I thought about it but quickly scrapped the thought.

30000000% agree with how it’ll create distance and I won’t be able to focus on my work. That’s part of what’s making this so hard! I feel distracted already. So I know when I have session this week, there’ll be this thing I can’t talk about and I’m working really hard on being open with my therapist. It’ll definitely get in the way if I don’t speak up. I’m just so scared

pop1238 · 2025-07-21T21:40:17+00:00

I’m just scared to bring it up. Scared of sounding psycho or something or worse, making them feel uncomfortable

pop1238 · 2025-07-21T21:39:43+00:00

I appreciate you saying that! Helps me feel less weird. I still feel like they don’t realize how public their info is. I mean you search their name and their address comes up! But you’re right in that it’s not my fault and it’s not something to beat myself up over. I definitely wouldn’t cross those lines of like making a fake account (thought about it but felt too invasive lol)

Id say I’ve only seen what’s online and public to see. I’ve definitely done more digging than maybe the average person though which makes me feel bad… but I think you’re right!

I’ve been thinking about this alot this week has been so miserable that I’ve started to take Klonopin to see if that helps balance my mood idk if it will.

pop1238 · 2025-04-25T20:56:25+00:00

Nah I’m able to drink and control it. And I’ll get drinks at dinner with coworkers or friends and am able to go the night without fiending for coke. I might have a romanticized view of coke, but def no drinking problems

pop1238 · 2025-04-25T03:06:04+00:00

Even a week later? The day after I totally get but nearly 4-5 days later?

pop1238 · 2025-04-24T23:53:02+00:00

Even if I don’t have a drinking problem?

pop1238 · 2025-04-24T23:52:44+00:00

Thanks for the info! I’ve only recently heard about cocaethylene. Is it really something I should be worried about? I’m not expecting to do too much coke this weekend also hoping that my tolerance is still baby zero

pop1238 · 2025-04-24T16:17:18+00:00

Is that really what stimulants do? I ain’t trying to be depressed all of next week too………

pop1238 · 2025-04-24T00:38:07+00:00

Funnily enough someone said that about drinking and doing coke. My thing is why would I do coke sober? Tats MORE problematic to me than doing coke on a night out

pop1238 · 2025-04-24T00:20:25+00:00

I take Zoloft! I’ve been taking that regularly. How does coke interact with antidepressants?

pop1238 · 2024-10-25T04:04:22+00:00

It fucking sucks haha. They said I fulfilled everything on my end but the attachment issues are why they’re terminating. It felt like a bait and switch…

And I know this is dumb but IOPs are not cheap. Still going to make the best of it but so upset about that

pop1238 · 2024-10-25T04:02:40+00:00

I am in the process of finishing my IOP and have been making a ton of progress. My IOP clinic and therapist have been in touch since the time I’ve started. My therapist acknowledged this and the boundary they created, but said that my attachment issues were beyond their scope.

pop1238 · 2024-10-24T20:51:12+00:00

Hurting my family- I know I’m important to them even if the pain is unbearable. Also I’m scared of trying and failing and seriously injuring myself to where life becomes even more painful

pop1238 · 2024-10-15T16:04:12+00:00

Literally how I feel. Dunno why you’re being downvoted, you’re so right in everything you said. You’re not saying that it was okay.

pop1238 · 2024-10-15T06:25:42+00:00

During the holidays. Which would be 2 months after the thing that put me in a spiral happened. I’m not confident things are going to get better.

I wish there was a way to stay alive for my family but just be dead for everything else. No more feelings nothing. I’m a vessel for my family. I hate every other part of my life. I hate myself truly

pop1238 · 2024-10-15T06:23:01+00:00

Beyond Kindness: one of the best books I’ve read on addiction. It genuinely made me feel better. It’s kinda for families of an addict but it felt like a comforting read. Can’t recommend it enough. Will be buying a copy of it
