Even my adventure with my psychologist, is almost finished! In fact, I will meet him for the last interview next Wednesday, September 12. I'm sorry, I feel I have lost a friend! This treatment, both psychotherapeutic and lasted three years, just starting from the year 2009. You know, everything ends and therefore is certainly not an unexpected greeting this. I say these words of sadness, even after the beauty of three years of talks with this doctor, I did not get any improvement in psychological state. However, I will miss those Wednesday to mental health center, I will miss a person with whom I could talk about all my problems, at least with the certainty of being heard seriously. That is clear, however, my care will continue through the intake of drugs. I will always have my doctor or health care professional available. But to whom can I recount my daily adventures?

I understand your situation because I felt the same way when the sessions with my first therapist ended. Since that time I have had several different therapists, but the first one that I had was the best and it really helped me to discuss my problems and everything else with him. We got along really well and I felt that I was able to be very open and discuss all sorts of things with him. After a year and a half our meetings ended and I missed him and the conversations that we had. From 2008 to 2010 I had a different therapist (a psychiatrist) but we didn't have the same kind of relationship and when the sessions ended I didn't miss him.

May I know why the meetings ended while you still need to discuss some problem with the therapist - and you are already comfortable to talk to him?

The meetings with my first therapist took place at a psychiatric hospital. In my country we pay for those hospitals through the taxes so I didn't have to pay directly for the therapy sessions with him. They offer free therapy at those hospitals, but because it free you can only get a limited number of meetings with the therapist after a year and a half they thought that I had had enough of free therapy sessions and that is the reason why I stopped seeing that therepist. I would have continued if I could, but the hospital make the decision about that. They are not able to offer unlimited free therapy sessions and I understand that, but I was still sad that I had to find a different therapist because the first one was definately the best.

Yes. This type of problems come because of various reasons -- desertion of close ones, losing job and property. Now that you had treatment and you know the reason for your problem you must be able to overcome that yourself. You are posting well in mylot and hence must be capable of solving your problems. with whom i can share -- you can always develop friends with nearby people -- go for a walk or to the park and talk to them. But one thing i have noticed is that people in usa and canada they do not talk to strangers at all. This is not the case in india where people do talk. That is one of the reasons for depression of many people living in advanced countries. think. you can share your problem to an extent in mylot as you have done now. good day.

Well, although I have not ever considered a very intelligent person, for that reason, I believe that it is not a simple thing to solve these problems on a psychological level, alone. I find, however, a useful thing to talk about with friends, here on Mylot. In addition to this my three trusted friends who I know personally, I have to say that they, gladly listen. That said, most of the people I talked about the fact that I start to move I personally find a good solution to my problems, of course there is a medication needed, and in my case, should not miss.
