HI everybody, I would like to hear your opinion about this kind of therapy. I am a little confused about it, it is helpful, but very scary and sometimes it can be very cruel (overwhelming etc.).  At the other hand, I learned a lot, and certanly I am more strong than I was before. Is psychoanalisis easier way, or not? What of this two things has better results?  |

HI,
Have a look at the entries for CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) in that section of the board ( I think it's under "non-therapeatical therapy for depression").
The members who discussed it there seem very impressed with it.
I haven't had CBT but it sounds really good ad I would like to try it. I think it's like teaching you new ways of thinking - positively instead of negatively - so that evenutally your brain sort of re-wires into this new approach to thoughts.
I just had regular counselling where I guess they do try to get you to think in a different way, but it is not as formal or as intensive as CBT.
Good luck, best wishes!
Heather  |

Dear Heatherzed, thank you very much for your support, and believe me, my English is not so good that I could clearly find the difference between therapeutic and the... what ever. Well, I am also very positive about this kind of therapy which is really new and helpful, and lot more than talk and listening... But, at the other hand, some of psychoanalisists says it is not enaugh deep and treat it like a second-placed kind of therapy. One doctor (not mine)said to me that I should stop with CB therapy and went to analysis, because I am to much anxious and with fobias and developmental problems. But I am in the middle overwhelming about my worst nightmare - separation, so, I think it is normal to be a little upset. So, I dont know what to think and what to do, because I am a little bit angry at my doctor because his treatment hurts me, but I am aware it is a part of game. It was like this about all my painfull issues, I was angry at him, or crying or nervous and at the end, everthing was good and I learned something important. But this is the hardest thing I ever had in my life, how to separate from my therapist and be just on my own. I hope it will pass, like it was so far...
Your message was so positive and with lot of good energy that I must to thank you, once again.
Stay positive,
Victory |

i have had a lot of therapy over the years.. some, hurt me very deeply,, i got away from that.. its hard to find a good therapist,, i guess thats why i havent dont it for a long time now..
i would like to have therapy again,, and,, i dont mind feeling the pain,, thats part of it,, but,, you should not feel hurt by your therapist!!! bottom line...
and yes,, i have had therapists,, that,, it did seem like a game to me...... manipulative!!!!! i dont go for that, at all..
we have to be very careful with our minds, and our therapists should have the same attitude.. a mind is not to play with.. and,, mine has been played with, like i said...
so,, feeling pain is normal,, we have to work through it,, but,, we cant be pushed to hard... thats my advice to anyone having therapy of any kind...
god bless,, cloe |
