Therapy 102

So tonight was another good session. It focused mainly on the younger parts of my life, which for me are a little bit... Maybe not hard, but some word I can't think of right now that is similar. I just don't like it. And things always sound worse when you say them out loud as opposed to just thinking about them in your head.

Anyway, as far as some factual things I learned:

- If you are a minor, a therapist can see you five time before needing parental consent.

- A slight change to an earlier "fact": For hormones and chest surgery, you only need three months of therapy with one therapist. You need two letters and six months surgery if you want anything more.

Yeah, sorry about that correction. My therapist did some more extensive research. The only other thing I can think of is that if you are cynical about the whole therapy thing, at least give it a shot. I don't think that it is for everyone, but I do think that two heads are better than one. I'll take all the input, advice, stories, wise words-- I'll take anything I can get basically. And not only because this is my own attitude, but personally I think it's a good one to have.
