My fragile egoEntry #689847
Hi Shells,

Today we are an empty shell. I have no more tears to cry. I didn't feel good last night and spent another night on the couch feeling sorry for myself.

What a joke I have become. Shelly Sunshine you better get your "toast" back here and start playing!

Change of Subject!

A new class starts tomorrow and already I am feeling the pressure. The 20 page syllabus just arrived in my mailbox.

This class is Psychopathology Advanced Clinical Assessment.

Which basically means I better figure out the clients problem, be able to diagnose the situation and get an accurate assessment so the insurance company will pay for the treatment & I will give the client the right direction.

It's all or nothing!  From this class I have to learn every thing I need to know about the Mental Health of the client. How to diagnose is the biggest area of concern. I have to get it right.

Now, I am not worried about the other parts of Therapy. I think I can handle the listening, the direction and the helping part. What scares me the most is getting it right from the start.  In less then one hour you have to pinpoint a clients underlying concern. Figure out exactly what you want to treat and how you are going to give your client the best possible help.

I have 6 weeks to figure this out and hopefully continue with my great grades. Last class I was so stressed out about that last paper. I ended up getting a 19 out of 20! Wow. What a shock that was!

I have managed to keep a very high grade point average for a Masters program. I am in awe of myself. It just goes to prove that if you want to learn something, you will. If you care about something you give your best!

I have to start giving my best to myself! I am tired of my fragile ego! Shelly come back!!

Love,
Michelle
