#88 Stop the Labelling


Many years ago, a respected and powerful
psychiatrist discharged
(and dismissed) me from his hospital
by telling me that I was
(and presumably always would be)
"therapy resistant!"

It depressed, terrified and paralyzed me
for long time.
Fortunately, a few years later,
I connected with a more respectful
and skilled psychologist
who had the patience
to wait with me
until I was strong enough
to move forward.
