My friend warned me about a psychlogist , that he is a jerk , also he goes clubbing and drinks alot . Another one warned me about one that is narcisisstic .Both of them were right .Is it normal for a psychologist to be a jerk /bitch and have issues ?
When you say clubbing, do you mean seal clubbing? Because I can't see anything morally contemptible about listening to music and dancing.
I personally think the profession of psychology is a load of bullshit. Many of them are complete hacks.
Basically, going to a psychologist just gives you someone to talk to. Most people have friends for stuff like that, but going to a ''psychologist'' is considered ''better'' because you are supposed to have carte blanche to say anything you want, and NOT be judged. That is what people like most.
Psychiatrist help you find solutions to the problems you have. Not everyone knows what's best for you, and psychiatrists are there to analyze your behaviors and thoughts to help find solutions for your wellbeing. You may think it's a load of bull and that's your opinion, but that do a lot of good for a lot of troubled people.
You know what they say about those who get a degree in psychology...they were trying to understand why they're crazy.
Normal. Most girls who are bitches on my class want to be one, they even think they're nice.
Im a psychologist. And by psychologist I mean shit talker of other people.
But friends and family do judge and it's not really bullshit. I used to think way differently before I got cognitive behavioural therapy but now I approach things differently. They take your fears, whittle them to the core, talk it all out and help put it back together again in a nicer structure. :3
Its natural for people to push away the ones who are only trying to help, and who are there telling you the truth you probably don't wanna hear.
Oh, and a couple of other approaches include psychoanalytic and behaviorist. There are a few others, but those are the main ones.
You probably want a psychologist with a humanistic approach (this is the preferred method of most people). The psychologist you are seeing probably does a different method. I have heard that most psychologists are pretty strange people anyway, but yours do seem rather insufferable. Find a new one.
I know a few psychologists, and they are all nice people. Maybe you have just been unfortunate?
