Have you tried social groups? http://www.meetup.com is good for finding groups in your surrounding area. They are listed by interest so that you can find other people who have something in common with you to enjoy. If you don’t find one with your interests, you can start your own group. :)
I understand how you feel. It’s terrible to feel lonely. Everyone (or nearly everyone) would like to share time with somebody special. It’s only natural, eh?
I just want you to know that I’m really hoping that the right guy comes along for you soon. Who’s the right guy? The guy who treats you the right way. What way is that? A way that doesn’t make you uncomfortable or unhappy. :)
Hi Flo, just added you. Wonder why your spiritedsoul account doesn’t work? Anywho, great to see you. And I have to add (sorry but I’m a guy) that your new av is your best ever. OK, strike that, it’s your prettiest ever. Maybe it doesn’t capture your personality like that one where you were making the funny face, loved that one, but it really does show how beautiful you are. More importantly, your friends here have gotten to know you as a beautiful person on the inside. Hope all is well or at least tolerable. Good to see you. Like the new user name too, very creative.
Ha ha–it will be all right! You just have to catch a guy at the right “stage” in his life . . . and you don’t want a guy who’s still far from the “commit” stage!
Well, you used to talk about it, when I was “Michael Leibman”. But what I mean is that he was asking “what is Aspergers” and we said some stuff… I didn’t know if he was confused out of lack of understanding or because he was trying to diagnose himself or what. It was yesterday, so still in my mind.
He used to be on my friends list but I haven’t seen him on at all in a long time.. so I’m wondering if he might have gotten banned ??? I couldn’t tell you.
If you’re looking for anyone else and need some information about anything at all, don’t hesitate to shout me. :) I don’t know if you remember a certain user called Barely?? We met through this website… and just got married two months ago. :) :)
We never talked much but I do remember seeing you around the website a lot.
How’s life treating you nowadays?? :)
I’ve been on this website for so long, it’s part of my daily life, it seems. Although, it has changed a lot over time. Do you see people on here that you used to be friends with?? Many have left or are not as active as they were. There’s a whole different crowd on here now.
Anyway, just wanted to say hi! It’s always nice to see some of the “older users” popping back in every once in a while..
Hi there Spirit! I’ve been on Help forever too. I am known as Marylou. Just wanted to say welcome back and… geezz… you don’t look exactly the same as you used to! lol (If that’s you on that picture.)
Anyway, I hope you are doing very well, my dear. :)
Don’t stop too early!
If a health insurance (or whoever) pays for it, stay for a longer time. About once a week for somel month, then reduce it slowly …
But leave it only if you are deeply CONVINCED that you can handle it by your own.
It’s more known in French language, but I just checked it on the English dictionary — it’s known there too. ;-)
Formation = Education
Ms. Helen Neame has an education (formation *lol*) in psychoanalysis. But it doesn’t matter, the description of her sounds really very good!
Anyway, for you the most important will be to feel well and comfortable with her. But be patient, the bond of trust often doesn’t come already with the first session.
I wish you the best for Wednesday and the next meetings!
this is the therepist im going to see on wed, this goes into detail what experience shes had.
all these type of therapy techniques, makes me confused! lol
Thanks for your shout.
You made the right decision, as I advised you earlier.
I myself got a formation in psychotherapy (Client-Centered Therapy).
There are different types. I would recommend you to look for a therapist who works with either the Client-Centered Therapy after Carl Rogers OR with Behavioral Therapy — but NOT Psychoanalysis after Freud or Jung.
