My therapist shingle was out this evening. My friend "C" called this afternoon and asked if I had plans tonight. He's been having some 'relationship issues' lately. Poor "C" sounded awful and he said he needed to get out of his house. I told him to come on over. He went from good friends to getting really intense with his gf quite quickly and the problems started popping up like weeds in my back yard. "C" is on the verge of being divorced (like it's final in few days). I admire him - he's transformed his life quite drastically and he's been in therapy. His friend/gf has a lot of stuff that needs to be dealt with, and in her eyes, he can't do anything right. She's putting up walls, and giving out a lot of mixed messages - which in turn confuses the hell out of him. Granted, I'm only hearing his side of it. But, "C" is a pretty objective person. Since I'm quite an expert at commitment issues and pulling away when things get serious, I hope I was able to offer some perspective. Anyhoo, he just wanted to talk. The poor guy - he has it bad for this girl but there's nothing else he can do - she's got to figure stuff out on her own. Hopefully, she will realize it sooner rather than later. He's a great guy and clearly he sees something really special in her. I sent him home with a few of my Ambien and instructions to get his ass some sleep It was nice to focus on something else other than my recent drama and residual stuff. |

you're like "Lucy" in the old "Peanuts" strip sitting in the little booth with the sign "the doctor is in" !!
Seriously, did you ever think about counselling as a career?

One of my undergrads is in Psychology - I thought I wanted to go into counseling. Then I started talking more to different counselors - and realized that if I had to hear people bitching and moaning about the same stuff over and over and over again, that I would not be able to just sit there - I would want to choke them and scream "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING????" (Sort of what I do with April)
I decided that it was best I not pursue that career path. However, I'm more interested in having a more interactive relationship - and I want to be a personal coach. I'm working with a few people right now - not making any $ for it - but gaining experience.

My daughter is studying psychology for her major and at first I thought maybe a school guidance counselor but now I think she would be a fun Sex Therapist. So she is taking a variety of psychology classes to give her a choice.
