Zulu9 - I think you and Doorman might need to do some overtime. This could be pricey.

Doorman- what do you mean victims, i am the victim. I await the letter bombs every day though.

Answer 1

Expensive, really
With the number of victims of your wit growing, exactly how long do you think you're going to live?

Answer 2

There is no set # of therapy sessions that can "cure" anyone. Therapy doesn't cure anyone and there is no "finding the best" cost does not determine effectiveness - having the right counselor for YOU does - you take certain steps in the right direction and depending on your maturity level, wisdom, friendships and pure life experience - you'll find healing. Depending on your temperment, family and other factors, it can take alot of time. Therapy in and of itself is only one little part of healing and you may want it for a time and then not need it for a time and then need it again later. Personal problems are things that require a variety of different ideas, solutions and methods to solve. Healing requires patience, accepting new life experiences as a part of that process and it does require that you don't measure yourself or try to standardize it like this. You can get depressed and make things worse by thinking that by this or that time - you should be over this or that. You have to let it take it's course because it's totally different for every individual. You'll need to be very careful in choosing a therapist because there are so many different worldviews and opinions that their ideas and methods come from. You need to determine what exactly is it that you really need? I personally don't think many people need to be diagnosed by the DSMIII and told that they are this or that and that due to their environment when they are young - they are forever damaged individuals - yet - that's what some therapists attempt to do to people. Be really careful. I recommend finding someone in your sphere of influence who can recommend someone who can really help you accomplish the goals you're looking to reach. Many times a pastor or social worker could help you find the best person for you by listening to your needs and giving good recommendations about someone.

Answer 3

there's no answer to this - as it depends on you, & very slightly on your therapist too! what i would say though is that whether or not you feel "better" you should have breaks in your therapy, for example 6 months of therapy then 6 months without....then see if you feel like having 6 months more. i think you need a space without therapy to digest & process what you've learned from the therapy & put it into practice. for me the 6 months was enough though i didn't realise it until i found myself making changes a month or 2 after therapy had finished.

Answer 5

i think of therapy could be best for you. no longer purely is it organic yet you being fairly anti-tablets(can i call it that?) won't purely be happier with the alternative even with the indisputable fact that it would paintings extra helpful for you. it particularly is distinctive for each individual. a great form of people say it particularly is in all on your suggestions. do you prefer to be happy?To you prefer to appreciate existence? do you prefer to be unfastened returned? Then make the attempt and marvel your self and others with therapy or tablets; whichever you elect. P.S I thoroughly trust you on transforming into to be based on tablets

Answer 6

if you are really looking for therapy, then you need to be able to commit yourself for as long as it takes. Getting back in full form takes time. The therapist helps you cure yourself and doesn't doit for you. Good luck if you do it. It's worth it if you have a good therapist. Get someone recommended.

Answer 7

I have been going for the past year and so far I still have a very long way to go. So I would say, never stop going. There is always going to be problems. It's how you deal with them that count.

Answer 8

It varies for each person and each issue, but I remember when my father died and I was in grief counseling. It became obvious to both my therapist and me when I had turned a corner and felt that I could use the tools he had taught me to soothe myself and bring about my own comfort. One tip I can offer you is to take any advice your therapist gives you and treat it as homework! If you do what is suggested by your therapist, you WILL recover. Good luck to you.

Answer 9

as long as you keep the problems to your self and no one know them and you didn't reveal any here you could be there for a few moments trying to offer information and getting clearer pictures of what you are in therapy for and then we can see how many times you want to hear the same things over and over

Answer 10

Depends on what is the nature of your problems.

Some take 10 sessions, some take 10 years.
