9. Agreed!
:D

It makes them work for their money. I'm not a textbook case. :D And it's easier to tell the experts from the by-the-books nitwits, whose jobs would be better sent offshore... :D

6. That's not the psychologist's job, anyway. Their job is to help you
figure yourself out.

That said, a lot of psychologists are charlatan and/or ineffective booger butts.

7. How horrible!
What in the hell does your co-worker know about your PERSONAL issues anyway?

Fuck that... I would be pissed if I were you!

8. My dear Hypno.....
If I were you, I would not put too much emphasis on what your co-worker said....

What does s/he know?

I've had a couple of very good psychologists, and they helped me a lot...

13. And what the &%$# are your coworker's qualifications in such matters
anyway? Tell him/her to STFU unless s/he wants you giving him/her a colonoscopy.

16. That is probably true
about any psychiatrists patient, the rubik's cubes in their desks, and the childproof containers for the pills the prescribe.

17. Sweety, can ANYONE really ever be figured out?
We all are very complex beings. Tell your coworker :spank: to stop worrying about you and get back to work. :hug:

19. Try an actual shrink. It will be the best investment you'll ever make.
Edited on Tue Apr-11-06 06:36 AM by BlueIris
The psychologists I made the mistakes of clinically exposing myself to (biiiiiig mistakes) were cheap hacks. Go to a real doctor. My psychiatrists saved my life. And they did it with efficiency and compassion. Terrific profession. Don't let anyone--let alone your callous, asshole coworkers, tell you different.

Call you PCP tommorow and make arrangements to talk options. Budget for it if you have to. You won't regret it. After a few sessions, you'll have a much better handle on all of your issues, I swear.

21. I hear ya. I have all these pesky websites diagnosing me as 'extreme
risk' or actually telling me I have a wide range of disorders.
Bah. They suck.

The latest was ADD incidentally... said blah blah blah you've got blahdeblah.
Then it couldn't decide which one! First it diagnoses me with one, and then says it doesn't know which.

Hmph. Computers. And people.
meh. Hope yours works out the best.

(FYI aside from an episode today, I'm fine.)

23. ALWAYS keep 'em guessing!
Chin up you man of mystery, you! :pals:

P.S. I am happy to now be self employed. Too many of my former co workers made the job feel like junior high school. Yech!

26. Can you figure out why your co-worker said that? Can you figure
out your co-worker period? I mean besides bitch.
