Yesterday I went to my appointment with my psychiatrist. It was terrible. She told me that I am setting my hopes to high and need to be more realistic. She said that I should just stick to the womens group that I go to instead of going to the PTSD group that I really want to go to. She said I wasn't ready for it. When I asked for one on one therapy again she told me that it was too intense and that she didn't feel I was ready for it.
How frustrating. I feel like now is the time for me to begin to heal. This is my time to begin my new future. So, I am going to look for a private therapist. That way I can start working on myself. Anyhow. I have to run. I hope all is well for everyone.
Seriously? She said you weren't ready for a PTSD group nor for one on one therapy? I would think that group therapy would be more intense than individual therapy. What were her reasons?
I think you know yourself well and you should seek out the treatments you feel will benefit you the most. But that is just my opinion.
Please let us know what happens next...
