Broke I could have written out the same questions. I like my counselor but he give me observations and not advice. Keeps telling me I cannot tell you what to do, I can only help guide you to a decision. WTF is that?? I and my insurance co pay you a lot of money to unf_ck me cause obviously there is something seriously wrong with me. We need to identify it and cut it out. And you are going to 'guide' me, I can buy the self lobotomy kit on Amazon.
I do have to say I do feel better getting it out and he does empathize with me. I often feel a bit better leaving his office for that day. However, I could buy alcohol or drugs and get the same peace for probably 1/2 the price. Sorry Broke did not mean to vent on your thread. But I have considered just talking to clergy or friends. Yet what little this guy does for me I do trust a lot.
