Hey taps, don't tell me to take charge and shit, i have been to 4 psychologists, 1 psychiatrist...i have been on prozac, st johns wart, valium, lithium, zoloft, paxil, and ritalin and nothing has worked, i've given the initiative, i've tried to get better. You must realize that sometimes the answer to lifes problems are not so simple as "well go to the doctor and get it fixed" doctors do not have the answers all the time. Counseling is a joke, 4 people 3 male docs and 1 female and they all act the same way....its almost pity they use when showing sympathy for the situation, they say things like "I understand" too much when in fact they do not understand, they have not lived my life, they have just read some textbook that has filled them with this magical knowledge of the human mind and behavioral patterns. I have told them point blank that THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND and they cannot tell me its not soo bad because that is all they do, there answer to things never works....oh have anger management problem? take a time out and evaluate the situation, when you are angry theres no fucking way you are gunna take and evaluate a situation, anger is a primal emotion in a sophicticated and evolved world. I am sorry for ranting but please make less generalized statements about how to fix life's problems.
I'll be on AIM if you'd like to discuss this further.
