Today I went to the university book store to preview some of the books that I need. Well I think I have changed my mind about the classes I was going to take.
First of all I was going to take intro in clinical psychology. It is only offered every two years, and is taught by a really experience practicing pychologist who is awesome.
Well I had to look at the book and it was like wanting to see but I shouldn't look kinda thing. This book was an intro in being a T and has all different kinds of situations that would apply to a T , on their side of the couch. Well it just seemed too personal or too close to the situation for me to read. I am not sure I want to know about their issues.
And all of us babblers wonder if our T's like us, hate us, etc. Well my thoughts after looking over this book, is YES, they can feel normal stuff that other people do about us. There was a section on dealing with a client they might not like, also dealing with feeling sexually attracted to a client, etc.
I guess in a way it burst the fantasy bubble for me thinking that maybe what I see and feel isn't real, it is only transference. Well after looking at this book, it is like those feelings are real, and it trains the T on how to best deal with them for the best therapy results.Well I think I am going to wait to take this class so I will be forcusing on the future, not my own therapy currently. But I feel like I want to look at the book again, but I felt like a teenager looking at her first naughty mag, like I was doing something wrong because I was looking at something that should be sort of secret for a client. I just feel weird,really weird and confused
