Lost in a sea of thoughts
Posted on March 15th, 2005 2 commentsToday marked my third visit to the new therapist that I’m seeing through Kaiser. I actually kind of liked it today, even though it was uncomfortable spilling my thoughts to someone who is basically a complete stranger. So far we’ve barely touched on why I’m there in the first place: to help me stop worrying about my heart skipping. Instead we’ve talked about my history, my relationships with friends and family, and my frustrations in life. By the end of the day, though, all these thoughts were stuck in my head. I started feeling frustrated, confused, and maybe a little sad. While I think it’s good to get these things out of your head, doing so can be overwhelming too. Nobody ever said this would be easy.

good for you. therapy is totally intense… but it’s *so* good to work on it. just remember that all those feelings are just your heart & your mind working it through. processing…

The problem with therapy is you can introvert a little too much. It’s good for the therapist, but not so good for you. You start to second guess everything you are, do, believe, feel, etc. It takes a while, but you’ll find where to draw the line. If you’re ever bored, start rattling off some faux horror in your past. It’s so fun to watch them say. “Ohhh. I can see where this is effecting you today.” Anyway…
