bhc,
thanks, it's nice to be back (well, it's nice that dr-bob's site is still going strong!).Now I'll be clear here: I'm just giving my opinion here, I'm not slating Windy, just giving my impression. I have the utmost respect for him and like the guy.
However. He comes across as being abrupt, sometimes rude, aloof and impatient. It's as if he takes REBT to the max and then turns it up a notch. He really does not seem to care whatsoever what people think. Which is great, I wish I could be like that. The psych I'm seeing at the moment knows him well and concurs that he is certainly not your average Joe.
As for him having something to say? Probably. If you paid him, that is =o]
Thanks for the links, those ideas sound interesting. However these days, from a personal point of view, I'm leaning towards a mainly meds-based recorvery. I'm beginning to believe (and this is quite a rational belief since it's based on evidence) that I'm not going to think myself better without some serious help. Which is a situation I hate but am beginning to accept.
What about you? You seem someone au fait with the various therapies? Are you OK/improving/doomed/bad these days?
