Katia, I think i tried Zoloft for about 3 days because my psychiatrist at that time wanted to immediately start me on a different one for some reason-it was about 4 years ago.Transpersonal Psychology sounds AWESOME. I have been studying Psychology for 5 years-who knew? Must be the school I went to? LOL At this time, my friend is not able to "receive" it- I have known her since 1986 and because of my "illness" she kicked me out of her wedding in 1998. We got back in touch in 2001. I moved, and she was calling me every weekend. I moved back in October of 2002, and she has yet to want to get together after I have made many attempts. Right now I am kinda ticked and wonder if it is worth my time anymore. She's got her own issues, so I have to respect that but she WAS a good friend-but I guess things just change. I don't know what will happen. Great way to start the week huh?
Thanks for the reply:-)
Have a good one,
KristenKristen,
How long did you try Zoloft for? Transpersonal Psychology. The transpersonal means "beyond person" whatever you want to call it. It is the classical study of psychology through the different eras, Freud, Object Relations people (Klein, Winnicott, etc.) and then Humanistic (Rogers), Existential and then Transpersonal. It bascially holds psychology with the knowledge that there is something greater - spirit or whatever you want to call it. (spiritual emphasis). It's just taking into account many levels of consciousness and beyond. It's hard to describe and it's not really the forum for this discussion!!! so I really don't feel comfortable saying more here.
I have found that I need to be careful who I reach out to. Boundaries are important, because sometimes a "friend" may say something hurtful, as I put myself in a vulnerable position in an "unsafe" environment...misjudging my "friend". I guess the thing to do is address that with her if you feel she can receive it, if not maybe find new friends?!good luck with your new round on Effexor.
Katia.
