It is now 5 years that i am healed from cancer. the anual scan is coming up. i am nervous and afraid. i know its normal. i am feeling a little crazy. i am snapping and down. then suddenly i can be out of it. am i bi polar?
why are therapist so focused on the past. why do they recommend medication over vitamins? dont they see the need for healing the core and feelings? why talk and talk.
i am in therapy for a 4 months and its not moving much.
I am seeing a non-frum therapist who I feel I am doing well with for the last few months. She is Jewish and does see many frum clients so she knows the culture well. There are a few bumps in the road and a few topics ie. shidduchim/kibbud av v’eim that she doesn’t get. Those topics are not taboo though. I discuss them with her and modify her advice to fit the standards of my frumkeit levels. Is this an issue? Should I be switching therapists? The only reason i dont want to switch is because i feel we connect very well and she already has helped me to understand and cope with a few aspects of life that have nothing to do with religion. Thank you so much.
The show is almost over why is my question still being moderated!?!?
