Have you ever been to therapy? How was your experience?

[Aerolyn]

I'm asking this because I have plans to see a therapist on the 15th and I've been having a few worries about how it's gonna go. Wondering can anyone here calm my nerves about it.

[dustybiker]

Yes. It was completely different than I thought it would be. Key is finding someone you click with. If patient and doctor (both) do not respect each other it won’t work. Otherwise they can help explain why you fee the way you do, react, all that head stuff.

It was great. I would do it again if I had to.

If its going to help then be open about it. They’ll probably ask you about your childhood, parents, if they fought, how you feel.

Be open & candid.

Therapy was shit. My therapist REALLY didn't like me.

[Aerolyn]

Why didn't they like you?

[OlderThanILook]

I give off prick energy apparently. People just don't like me because I overthink things and can be cynical at times. I dunno why she hated me as much as she did, but she pretty much told me that I am the problem and that I would be lucky to keep people around me. She didn't really give me advice, just kinda told me that I was a piece of shit over and over again.

[Aerolyn]

I got the feeling my therapist might do that shit, I'm the same way.

I overthink too damn much and have grown more cynical overtime and shit.

I already know I'm the problem and I'm going to not be the problem, sucks to see that you're therapist didn't help you with that.

Geez, just to imagine going to therapy just to feel worse...
