I've had several but can never really find one I actually like talking to. I NEED THE PERFECT SHRINK to deal with my crazy a**.

I had to "shop around" before I found a good therapist, I'll give you what advice I can. First off look for psychologists not social workers or counselers, assuming you have insurance, there's a difference of 6 years of education between the two and it makes a difference in the quality of the therapist. Second, whenever I tried a doctor that I didn't like working with, I would ask them who they recommend, and every one of them gave me at least one other name to try. You just have to keep "job interviewing" therapists until you get one you like and feel like you can work with. I applaud you for seeking treatment, good luck.

It really does have to be a good fit. Word of mouth if people are willing to talk about their shrinks. I've been going to the same g.p. for 30 years and told him I wanted an older woman and he found someone that I really like. But I had a couple of duds before. Keep trying but go by your gut reaction at first meeting and don't waste your time.

To be honest with you, all shrinks suck. You are somehow better off dealing and fighting your problems yourself.

You asked to pick the correct winners and I picked them correct first (Ravens to beat Saints & Falcons to beat Bengals). You chose the best answer as who answered them both wrong. Could you explain why? Is this why you have posted this question?
