When you are all saying you see therapists, what specialization are you doing? DBT? CBT?

If you can find someone who specializes in depth psychology, that has been hands down the best experience I’ve had. For me, it has gotten me to the actual root of issues and helped increase my self awareness and self accountability tremendously. Years ago I tried CBT and it seemed to just scratch the surface. Good luck!

How did you find the practitioner?

OP, I actually stumbled upon it. Had called my old therapist for a tune up after several years and he had moved back into academia and wasn’t seeing patients so I asked him for a rec. There are a lot of online directories of clinicians but I find those to be hit or miss. I had never thought of it before, but given my recent experience, I’d suggest contacting the chair of your local university’s psych dept and see if they can rec someone nearby. If you happen to be in metro Atl, I’m happy to send you the contact info for mine.

I want to hear about how knowing the root causes of the way you think make you behave differently now. We were poor and chronically neglected by our parents growing up, so my sibling and I both value money above everything. In that scenario I know it isn’t everything intellectually, and I know why I think it is still the most important thing. How do you go from knowing about it to changing the behavior now?

I’ve also heard excellent things about DBT but just be aware you need to commit to individual and group sessions. Travel can make that a challenge but if your schedule works then it may be a good option for you.

Deep psych is interesting to me. I’ve been going to cognitive behavioral which is basically the opposite. Always thought I needed to solve everything but it’s helped me to let things go and try less to understand everything. Still trying to make it work as best it can but seems polar opposite in a way. At the same time, it does focus on identifying thoughts or actions and correcting them which D1 above me seems to be getting at as well

He seemed worried about my expectations (and had clearly googled my salary). He was saying (half jokingly) that we are like The Lady and the Tramp. He also knows I come from an affluent family and he kept saying that he felt I was ‘above’ him

one thing that really helped my anxiety situation is switching to decaf coffee. I know there’re a lot of decaf haters. But personally, I LOVE the taste of coffee but after 2 cups (and sometimes even just one cup) my mind will start racing and I’ll start worrying about literally everything. A friend of mine told me to quit caffeine and I listened. I was able to find delicious decaf coffee that taste just as good, I sleep better now, and have even better energy. ✌️
