Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

@Snowie sometimes it is just time to move on hey!! Like my old psych I had before this one, I actually loved her but got to a point where I felt like I'd done all the work I could do with her. My new psych is able to challenge me in ways she couldn't, so I'm really glad to have made the change! And yeah if face-to-face is really needed (and I totally think it is, esp for us to be able to form a safe/trusting relationship, cos we gotta feel out the vibe) then totally worth prioritising!

@Bow Aww yay, I'm glad you get to catch up with her again!! Maybe she can help set the craft group right ahaha

@Jynx my problem is that I live rural and have so many issues/diagnosis that need to be dealt with. Trying to find someone that would take me on will be hard. I wouldn't want to deal with me and everything wrong with me.

Re: My Mosaic

@Snowie yep, a lovely little gap to be falling through I'm sure 😒 How far would you be willing to travel for sessions? Atm I'm driving 1.5 hours once a month and it's not toooo bad. Been thinking about going to 3-weekly so it might become a bit more impactful, will have to see. It is a whole extra factor to consider though, esp if you often come out of appts feeling a bit drained/unsteady and the thought of a long drive suddenly becomes very overwhelming...

Atm I'm driving 45mins one way for my psych @Jynx A lot of the time after sessions I just sit in my car for 10-20 mins just to calm down and be able to drive home.

I've been looking and trying to find someone who at least cover's c-ptsd it is hard. Then the waiting times.....

Just want to throw it all in.

Re: My Mosaic

@Snowie can I ask where you're looking? Like are you using databases and such?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Just using google @Jynx Searching as far as an hour away in all directions.

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

@Snowie You might have already tried em, but maybe you could also do a database search? There's these two which cover psychology and counselling;

APS Find a Psychologist

Psychology Today Find a Counsellor

An then there's this one which is more specialised:

Trauma Support Directory

Just in case it helps you expand your search!! 😊💜
