When ...I like this post because, yes, I can relate. When me, Wendy, and Jess (clinical interns together) hang out, it almost never fails that one of us says something to the other in the form of, "Would you STOP talking like that?!" referring to therapy-oriented speech/questioning. haha. I often find myself asking the "How does that make you feel?" question to people, too, and it's funny to see the responses to that question from those IN my field and those NOT IN my field. There's usually a little giggle (or a little snarl if you're unlucky) from those in the field. heh heh. <BR/><BR/>I don't necessarily think one is taking their work home either. And, I know there are just somedays when we therapists just want those newly conditioned analytical responses to not be there when we come home at the end of the day. Sometimes we are tired. We want to relax our intellects for the rest of the evening. But, most of the time, being a a therapist is like being on meth, it's addictive. <BR/><BR/>And YES! I can very much relate to the suicidal questioning thing when we therapists ourselves sometimes get down (which we all do) and need someone to talk to. It's almost natural to want to follow up by saying "No, I am not suicidal!" And, if we therapists really did go see a counselor of our own and we really were suicidal and posing an immediate threat to ourselves, I'm wondering if some people in our field would sneakily maneuver around the questions or not tell the whole truth so as to avoid hospitalization -- a person not in our field would most likely not know what to expect (i.e., hospitalization) if they weren't very familiar with therapy. hee hee. <BR/><BR/>And finally, the self-disclosing thing is something we therapists really have to watch ourselves on -- especially around our friends:<BR/><BR/>Therapist's best friend: <BR/><BR/>"Where are you going for dinner" <BR/><BR/>Therapist: <BR/><BR/>"I cannot disclose that information to you." <BR/><BR/>... ;) . haha.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17484218784988095227noreply@blogger.com
