Counseling involves communication between the counselee and counselor. Therapy is the intimacy that develops from the sharing in a counseling relationship. Good therapy is always the goal. Unfortunately, for differing reasons, therapy can often be anything but good. Multiple personality disorder is a clinical diagnosis found in people wuth a specific psychosis. There have been a few great movies about the condition, most notably Sybil. There have also been many who seek to fake the condition to avoid prison as a result of crimes they committed or just because they want an escape from reality. Funny t hing is all of us can actually have this condition in small degrees quite often, just not enough for us to be considered crazy.
Unwanted and irrational thoughts can spring upon us seeminly out of nowhere. They can vary in intensity and degree, which is why we need to take a deep breath and step back to not let them pull us away like calgon lol Abusive life experiences, severe trauma and shock can be underlying causes for these occurrences. Shame and guilt can be a result of or even a cause of these disturning thoughts. Good therapy serves as a healing way to remove these negative feelings replacing them with positive. It may take a lifetime.
i chose Labrynth as the title for this post because that is what mental and emotional anguish can feel like. A long,twisting,endless maze going multidirections with so many deadends. Very easy to want to give up lose all hope be resigned to a fate we cannot escape from. Like the kobayashi maru- no win scenario. I have been there and felt thst. Many times.
Believe me when i tell you hope stahys alive!!! I don't care how many times that lil voice or many lil voices in your head tell you there is no hope no help your stuck in pain your no good you have no worth anything and everything negative there is to be said. As long as you are alive- there IS HOPE!!!!
THIS POST, SOME OTHERS I HAVE WRITTEN IN THE PAST AND OTHER I WILL BE WRITING IN THE FUTURE ARE ALL DONE TO REACH OUT TO ANYONE WHO FEELS CAUGHT IN THE LABRYNTH AND FOR ANY WHO WANT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT ITS LIKE. CAPS FOR EMPHASIS WE ALL NEED SOMEBODY TO LEAN ON
PEACE
