Politics as a Mental Illness


Never thought I'd say this -but- today I am thankful for DORA (Colorado's Regulatory Dept).

I work in the mental health industry.

I tire of hearing stories of conservatives harassed by leftist therapists. I am literally shocked at the sheer numbers of therapists and teachers who harass conservatives.

These professionals typically go after strangers and coworkers.

Today, I learned that a therapist allegedly went ballistic on a patient she thinks likes Donald Trump.

I am livid.

I'm no Trumpette.  I think Hillary should be wearing orange.

I'm an equal opportunity hater and a porcupine at heart.

I'm hoping the patient reports the therapist to the regulatory board for investigation.  Make no mistake, this event is not without damage.  It is a breech of trust and safety.  How can any therapist get a client to talk if he or she does not approach professional practice with unconditional positive regard?

People are to be respected.
All voices deserve to be heard.

Sigh….

I need to find a new office now.  I don't want that nasty therapist's energy all over my practice.

I have a plan.  It's not a very good plan.  In fact, it's a stupid plan.

It may work.

Yes, I'm looking for a new workspace.

I'm also going to deface my car with a Trump bumper sticker and a camera.  Trump bumper stickers go missing from cars in the parking lot.  My thought is that I can get this idiot arrested if she takes my property so she can't hurt another struggling soul again.

Maybe if I wear a MAGA hat, this idiot will punch me and I'll shove the errant therapist's ass in jail.  I'm old and ugly.  She can't do much more damage to my face.

If she steals my hat, I'll have her arrested for theft.

Maybe I can confuse the bad therapist by wearing a red cap that states in white lettering:

MAKE 

THERAPY 

GREAT AGAIN! 


Damn it!!!

****

I'm going to put this tidbit right here while I ponder the line I will use to decide when to report the abuses I see and hear about.

Most therapists who are not in private practice work for taxpayer funded non-profits.

My warning is directed at those therapists working in a non-profit setting and their organizations:

IF YOU WORK FOR AN ORGANIZATION THAT SURVIVES OF OFF STATE FUNDS 

DO NOT -

 LET ME REPEAT

DO NOT....

HARASS CONSERVATIVES OR REPUBLICANS. 

THE REPUBLICANS OFTEN VOTE FOR YOUR FUNDING. 


You never know who goes to speak during committee hearings at the capital and who can bend the ears of lawmakers.  

I hate to say it.  Right now, even in my own industry, I'm not so sure my words will be positive. 

Please change that. 

Stop traumatizing the patients.

Love, 

Your friendly neighborhood libertarian psychotherapist

Stalker Proxy Phone Calls

What kind of songs do narcissistic stalkers sing?  I imagine they sing songs like this.   I am grateful now that I understand why the stalker has people call  but   wish they'd listen when I ask them not to call again.  I probably should document this somewhere.  My ex was talking to an old friend of mine from high school on a daily basis.  She is his cousin.   I had to quit talking to her when she'd ask me to plan parties and then refuse to give me the guest list saying that the attendees would only be me, her, my stalker Shannon, and my NPD mother-in-law.   She wanted me to plan interventions.   This happened with a baby shower.  It also happened with a wedding.  The in-laws put together a fake wedding trying to host an intervention to shame me and my ex into doing things for them (like quit school and give them my car).   I had to cut this so-called friend off over that in 2004....

Venus Meditations

  Today I am thankful for my new realization.  In my world, Friday is the day of love (reminds of The Cure - lol).  It's true.  Friday is the day of Venus.  Exhausted as I was after work, I went to my altar and lit a candle asking that my friend find whatever his life is lacking. Then I went upstairs and did my Friday night ritual to Aphrodite.  I lit a candle asking that I gain confidence in my ability to love.  I also ask that I recognize true love.  I was too exhausted to linger so I tried to fall asleep.  Have you been too tired to sleep?  It's horrible.  Your mind goes round and round -  you might recall things that happened recently (like the doctor telling me to be careful because I haven't hit menopause yet and I say, "not worried about it" while thinking that it's a good time to be in a sexual drought - hooray for me),  or things going on at work  (that I can hypnotize little cranky babies to sleep without sa...

My Competition

Only our best friends and greatest teachers will have the courage to say those uncomfortable things to help us get out of the mud and back on our paths.   Today I am thankful for my competition. I love being a hypnotist because I have the most wonderful colleagues in the world. I bought a refresher Stop Smoking Hypnosis Course from another hypnotist trainer.  I bought it because I'm too lazy to create my own business forms.  It comes with the forms.  Usually, I can't read anything this man writes without learning something new.  I figured that I couldn't go wrong investing in his products.  I received the package yesterday.  It was supposed to contain four CDs. I received five.  Do you want to guess what the fifth one was?  It was a hypnosis session entitled "Overcome Your Lost Love." I'm a little bit tickled at that discovery. This is perfect!!! I love this guy's voice.   This is the mo...
