Hello all,

I am happy that I found this site, as it’s been very lonely lately. I’m in therapy, and seeing a psychiatrist but it feels like I’m just being talked at and not having a meaningful conversation. I don’t know where to begin, so I’ll leave it at the intro. Happy to meet you all.

I wish I could help. It's so difficult to find a good, qualified, and more importantly caring, therapist or doctor. I went through several meds, a couple of psychiatrists, and 3 therapists before I found good doctors.


Please, I know it's a pain to get a new doctor. I've had that nightmare. However, don't ever give up. I finally have great docs and a therapist I love.


They often make you feel like you are being talked down to like a child. I couldn't tolerate that or the super bubbly watch the colorful ball stuff. 🤣. I'm more the explode the skull in your head for meditation type of chick. If you don't feel comfortable during therapy or with a doctor, you do what you have to to find another, please. Maybe online if travel is an issue. It is for me. Money is also a factor.


Never feel lonely. That's what we are all here for. 😊 It's very nice to meet you.
