I've been reading this website Rational Recovery today. Go check it out.
anyways, to respond-
I totally feel the way you feel about a counselor. It just seems that I am smart enough to get to know them a bit, and chew their creditability, or shoot holes in their thought process, or whatever. I toally get what you are saying.
But- on the other hand, I have totally been trying to feel better for a long time on my own, and "here we are".... so I may try it, not sure.
I don;t want to end up on meds.
