Thought I'd make a post that for once isn't entirely about my psychological problems. (I will say a word on that, though: I printed out my last entry and took it along to my session, and it wound up going really well). I've been pretty up and down and still not leaving the house much, but I'm just trying to look forward to the three-day bonanza ( Read more... )

The printing idea was actually really good because before that, I'd had two sessions and it felt like nothing was actually getting done. Particularly in the second one, all we did was organize my uni forms and do some breathing exercises which would have been fine except it kept weighing on me that my mother was paying $60 a sessions for that, and it didn't feel like much. So the entry, I think, highlighted to her that I've been feeling more sad than anxious lately and she had me talk about my family which felt more worth my time than exercises and stuff. (And the line in there about my mum not really being able to afford it, I completely forgot about that, but she wound up giving me the concession rate for my sessions from now on which knocks $20 off the price :p So after Medicare's rebate, mum will only be paying $40 instead of $60, which is great).

And no, I'm really behind! I kind of gave up on it, actually. A lot of people have been saying it's really gone downhill and become unfunny now that Robin and Barney have broken up. I was hoping to get back into it when and if they reconcile, either that or when the show looks like it's coming to an end. 7 did of course take it off air again and the last ep I saw was a glimpse of the one with Lily's dad trading slaps back and forth. Should I actually get back on it? Because seriously, people have been saying it's become awful!

I always felt that way in sessions, just constantly thinking how my parents are paying $150 a session and it's probably a waste. But in hindsight I see how much it was worth it so just try not to think about that and hopefully when you look back you'll feel the same.

I don't see why anyone would think it's gone downhill other than hardcore Barney/Robin shippers who feel jipped. I was a shipper of them but I got over it because when you think about it in real life you just know it wouldn't have worked out. I'm also like 90% sure the writers will have them together in the end so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt.

BUT forgetting about Barney and Robin, the show in general is still as awesome as ever. The only thing is I'm getting a bit annoyed with Ted's character I'm not even sure why. But they are getting much closer to the mother and Lily and Marshall are still awesome and their story is progressing nicely. The season finale was only last week so you have plenty of time now to catch up if you want to.
