Re: Poem

Re: Poem

For everyone: I first started seeing my psychiatrist in 1998. I wrote this poem about him and therapy twenty-five years ago. As you can see, I didn't trust him at the beginning. I know now that he did and doe's care. I hope someone can relate and it's not too negative for here!

@REDLINEZ750 Here's another one. Are you okay? I'm being brave by putting it up!

Therapist

Do you laugh behind my back?

I doubt that you care less

How do you look upon my life?

Pathetic, I would guess

Did you ever give a thought

until I walk on through?

Or am I just another one

waiting patiently in queue?

You hide behind your doctor's mask

I know that's it's not you

I wonder what you're really like

Is what I see all true?

I want to trust and believe in you

But I can't believe you care

You keep your distance emotionally

and personally, never share

I am depressed and miserable

I feel unstable too

Are you glad when time is up

I wish I really knew

I'm so angry, I've no control

You won't open up to me

You have the power, I'm vulnerable

I hate the pain, you see

I sit with this every week

and I'm still compelled to come

My need for love is crushing me

I'm here for just a crumb

Does my pain amuse you so?

Is that behind your smile?

I want control that you won't give

I need to feel worthwhile

I have failed in my eyes

and it brings up all the past

Not wanted and unlovable

It's the role I have been cast

I love and hate you passionately

You hold some king of spell

Damn you for your ethics, [named removed by moderator]

But thank you too, as well

I'm feeling now, you wanted that

Though I can't say I'm impressed

I have to trust what you want

Is to see me at my best!

Re: Poem

Yes sir! 😂

I'm hearing you and I appreciate what you're saying! I can see it from your side. Thank you!

I'm thankful that you aren't wiping yourself out totally. I know the thinking of squeezing in as much as possible before going 'away'.

How are you feeling as it gets closer to Thursday? Anxious, fearful, hopeful, excited, sad. I remember feeling p***** off when I went 'away' that I 'had' to give up the one thing that had been with me and comforted me for so long. I hope they have a gentle side to where you're going! Put the mask down and see what happens. It sounds like a safe place to be yourself, face to face!

You are grounding to me. I think feeling close to you (non-se*ual) is probably a combination of a few things. Something to talk to my psychiatrist about! 😆 I'll let you know what he says. I love the mystery element of it. I wouldn't be so open if I could see everyone.

Masks... well, yes! masks helped us survive. I think I'm basically myself most of the time. I have a saying that says you can take me anywhere twice. The second time is to apologise for the first! 😁 I'm just a country 'girl'

Good to hear you will be on unless you pass away. Please don't!

Sh**! I need to go and see what's happening on the other threads. Putting all my eggs in the one basket is another conversation. :face_with_rolling_eyes:

Talk soon 💛

Good morning @heartathome

Thank you for letting us know that the Support button isn't working! We will try to resolve this as soon as possible. In the meantime, you're more than welcome to fill out a Technical Feedback form https://www.sane.org/technical-feedback so we can keep track of this.

Thank you!

In response to: Re: Poem

Re: Poem

I'm okay @REDLINEZ750 I've got nothing planned so I think it will be a long day!

My thoughts are with you! 💛

Will you be able to sleep today sometime?

Is the place you're going to near you?

Is your house mate going to look after Pooky while you're away?

Are you allowed to have your phone? Don't forget your phone charger! 😉

Re: Poem

Thank you @Doofenshmirtz

I used the technical feedback form. Am I supposed to do that every day, as the button doesn't work most days? I think they would get annoyed with me after a few weeks! 😉

I love your name, by the way! 💛

In response to: Re: Poem

Re: Poem

hiya @heartathome just saw your post about the technical form so thought i'd pop in to answer - you can report technical issues as many times as you'd like (the more forms submitted, the more info the IT team has to work with). 😊

hope you're having a nice start to the week!

In response to: Re: Poem

Re: Poem

Thanks @rav3n

I'm having a very slow day

I'd send a note to IT everyday if I thought it could help! Surely, they are aware of the extent of the issue! I wondered if it could be because of all the pictures, reels and songs we are posting. I wonder if it's connected to the support button.

It means people are not knowing that they're being supported unless we reply. Maybe they could put a support button up that we can copy and paste. I don't know rav3n!

Is this issue years old or something new?
