Sounds like you dont need one.

and have a shit load i'd like to get off my chest.

Can you do this with family or friends? If not then sounds like you need one

quote:

I come from an oldschool fam so their moto is just shut the fuck up and deal with it.

Its always good to talk and express emotions, talk to the people who are putting these stresses in your life.

quote:

and i know alot of ppl like to come on here and spill there problems too a bunch of strangers on the internet but i dont see that as being therapeutic.

In some sense it is, or else people would not do it. They get a feeling of not being judged by strangers.

quote:

so let me ask what actually goes behind those doors? do you just talk to some person and everything you say they keep overanalyzing it like you see in tv?

Well that is what you hired them for no? to analyze you. However if you tell them what the problem is, they will help you hopefully resolve it.


Sounds like you want and need to talk to a psychologist. Its nothing bad, nor a sign of weakness.

Originally posted by MrJiveBoJingles Psychologists are a bit different; they tend to listen to you better and ask questions that might be helpful. Of course, they can't prescribe you anything since they don't (usually) have an MD, but sometimes they'll recommend that you see a psychiatrist who will prescribe it. It sounds like what you're looking for is a psychologist rather than a psychiatrist.

+1.

Never been to a psychiatrist myself, but psychologists are quite nice. Sure, you can vent to friends and/or "man up", but what psychologists do is something else entirely, and the psychologist does expect you to man up anyway

Paul: Supermodels are beautiful girls, Will. A beautiful girl can make you dizzy, like you've been drinking Jack and Coke all morning. She can make you feel high full of the single greatest commodity known to man - promise. Promise of a better day. Promise of a greater hope. Promise of a new tomorrow. This particular aura can be found in the gait of a beautiful girl. In her smile, in her soul, the way she makes every rotten little thing about life seem like it's going to be okay. The supermodels, Willy? That's all they are. Bottled promise. Scenes from a brand new day. Hope dancing in stiletto heels.

"The Wizard" as I call Psyciatrists or MH specialists are great if you need them. We are forced to undergo mandatory mental health screens each month or after any significant incident.

I'd feel WAY more comfortable going of my own free will tho.

Its just the same back home, any time my ambulance crew handles a fatality or mass casualty or something else gnarly, they make us go see the wizard there too.

I guess my point is they are great if you need them, but not if you are pressured into it. Every man must prepare himself amnd deal with his own shit his own way I think.
