May. 3rd, 2008 08:37 amHm, so, yay for breaking down twice in as many days. I really hope it's just the stress of the last two (ZOMG TWO) weeks of school approaching. It would tie in with my indigestion (lulz), at least.
I agreed to see another therapist, though. While I adore Dr. Sandy (mostly because she adores me, I'll admit), she's not what I need in a therapist. Stacey wants me to see a psychiatrist, though. And apparently, it's not my decision on whether or not I take medication. ._. Screw that. I seriously don't think I'm bad enough, consistently enough, to warrant that, and any psychiatrist who tries to DEMAND I be medicated is just pushing prescriptions. Just. Ugh.
And of course, Stacey let it slip that she thinks I might be bi-polar. Yeah, I can see some of the symptoms, but none are bad enough to warrant a diagnosis. Just like how I have a lot of the signs of narcissistic personality disorder, but none are bad enough to warrant a diagnosis. I'm just messed up - I don't have a severe chemical imbalance or structural abnormality.
And trust me, it's harder to deal with your issues when you can't go, "Well, I'm depressed, so that's why I act this way."
Mrr,
peridium, I promise to try and get this all sorted out before August! :< College = new start = PLZ NOT TO BE BEING EMO.

Soon enough you'll be off at college where you'll be so busy that it's crazy and have so much free time you don't know what to do with yourself. Actually it was pretty nice if I remember right... Oh, and you get to graduate and lord knows how much stuff you have to do just to get a peice of paper :) If anything vent your heart out here.. in way you could say we're always listening!... or reading.... or something like that :)
