i do not know..but i can get free counselling here in my school.Originally posted by FireIce:if we go for a group therapy session, will it be cheaper?
i m scared..cos ppl will brand me as psycho if i go. and the last time i went to one in my high school, it turned out that the counsellor went around telling ppl abt my problem until the whole school knew abt it the next day

is the counselor a certified one?Originally posted by icyprincess:i m scared..cos ppl will brand me as psycho if i go. and the last time i went to one in my high school, it turned out that the counsellor went around telling ppl abt my problem until the whole school knew abt it the next day
i.c.y
as far as i know there are codes of conduct for psychiatrists and licensed counselors.....like promise of confidentiality.... -
well u could go try it out. but back in JC when I went for counselling sessions, it wasn't really useful for me. all u have to do is to "know" how to answer the counsellor's questions and make the right remarks.Originally posted by icyprincess:have been feeling really crappy lately. i m wondering if i shud go see the counsellor in my school.

agreed 110%Originally posted by Estee:that COUNSELLER is a bloody asshole.
the next thing i know was i have teachers coming over to me to ask if i m okie...and i din know what to tell them...cos the voice inside my head was screaming..how the heck did you find out???
i.c.y -
Because the couselling you got is free and the counsellor is not professional. I NEVER go to the counsellor in my school cuz he just talks with a Psychology textbook in his lap and ask stupid questions.Originally posted by icyprincess:i do not know..but i can get free counselling here in my school.

yea got dat code but obviously she cant keep her mouth shut. cos last time in my high school i was quite known among the teachers so of cos she has to go around to spread the juicy news...
i.c.y -
That counsellor should be sacked bec he/she has not followed the basic training of counselling which is to keep everything confidential! Shame on that person.Originally posted by icyprincess:i do not know..but i can get free counselling here in my school.

By all means, go see your school counsellor especially since you seemed to be burdened by some issues which you have dont know how to sort out. An extermal view and experience is always useful.
Oh about being branded... the people who do that are just ignorant and silly. Often they are the one who needs help but unlike you, they do not have the courage to seek it.
so by all means, please go. I am sure you can arrange for the timing to be such that its perhaps at a time when most of your friends or teachers are not around? say like on a particular day the timetable is often very quiet etc??
take care -
dunno...i tink this is sort of like a last resort for me lor...Originally posted by HENG@:well u could go try it out. but back in JC when I went for counselling sessions, it wasn't really useful for me. all u have to do is to "know" how to answer the counsellor's questions and make the right remarks.
like i dunno what to do anymore...i feel like i m trapped in a cage and i cant get out...and i cry like almost every night now...nobody knows about it because i pretend to be cheerful during day time and when i cry at night, I am really quiet about it...

Oh dear, you sound like you are under quite a bit of pressure. if the school counsellor is not any good, many of them are trained but not trained as well, then you may wish to seek outside assistance.
It is a sad state of affair that we have counsellors who cannot counsel
still go and speak to the counsellor first and see whether he/she can help. if not, please post again and we will think of something for you
