Therapist Is Being Useless

I mean I get it, it's a therapist. But I just felt really misunderstood and it felt like she was talking down to me the whole time. Did I read this the right way?

Explain the blacking out. Is it medical or mental issues?

99/100 therapists are useless. You ever been to college? You ever talked to a psych major? That's who your therapist is.

get the pills if she gives them up so easy and make a buck selling them

then get a different therapist

You already know the answer

Try another therapist. Hell, fucking 7cups.com can do a better job, I'm sure of it.

I'm rather suicidal these days (I'm blaming hormonal problems I'm trying to fix as soon as possible), but talked to a friend and he had a rather level headed approach to things.

As for the finding yourself and forming bonds, it's never easy man. What can I say

Bottom line, find better therapysts. Try to reconnect with someone you think would be a good person in your life.

Even people on /adv/ at times leave their emails or skype accounts to chat.

Therapists aren't a one stop shop.

If you don't feel compatible with one you try another. It took me sessions with 2 different ones before I stuck with the 3rd.

Also keep in mind that its a therapists job to confront you with ideas that contradict your own. If your own world view and view of yourself was accurate and perfectly logical you wouldn't need a therapist.

Its perfectly natural to get frustrated with a therapist or even feel like you're not making progress as fast as you would life. If you absolutely feel like you can't rectify your relationship with this therapist, find another one. Thats all.

Mental, I have a form of Autism. It isn't very serious. When I'm in high anxiety I just black out. Like my body shuts down or falls asleep. I can't control it really.

Yup in college. I kind of agree... I just feel upset. She always goes back to her kids/family for examples on how to deal with problems. I'm glad she wants to HE(my money)LP me. But when you say things like "People will think you're a stinker if you say depressing stuff" I can't take you seriously as a therapist.

I know how you feel. I feel the same.
I've been depressed for a while and only recently reached out for help. During my first therapist visit I tell her the same shit you did. That I felt hollow and can't feel anything, that my mind is full of static, that I'm stagnant and the world is shifting around me, etc. She asked if I had suicidal thoughts and I told her I had thoughts of dying but not suicide. She also gave me an "oh dear..." look and said I was one step away from being hospitalized right there.

Ha funny right? I feel like I mean well and I have an ENFJ personality type. I just wake up some days and wonder "if I died today, what would my life be worth?" I don't want to commit suicide that seems rather selfish. If I was to go I want to at least do one last great thing for someone.

Sounds like you made one of the classic blunders, seeing a female therapist. Find a male one.

Oh lord you're like one of those adorable fainting goats!

telling someone you feel dull doesnt really help unless theyve been through the same feeling. youre the useless one here.
