I really can't decide whether I'd
enjoy being a psychologist or not. As in all families, we've had our
fair share of people needing mind-fixes. Do you think people
realize the amount of psychological work they're doing just by talking
to their friends and family members? It's all psychology.
Anyway, this topic is inspired by my little sister, Kalli. I've just
recently finished a fight with her and I'm very very sick of it. I want
to say that I hate her, but I know it's not true. I'm just frustrated
to my breaking point. She's gone and caught herself in a psychological
double-bind and there's almost no helping her. She's gone to therapists
and she's on pills and she's still depressed. It's because she's locked
herself in a cycle of vulnerability. She's so afraid of getting hurt
that she doesn't allow herself to accept the negative parts of herself.
Of course, she knows all about them and has studied them and let's them
influence her self-worth, but she can't accept them because accepting
them will hurt her self-esteem even more. This being the case, she
reacts violently when someone nay-says her - in otherwords, when
someone tries to help her fix what's making her sad. I'm going to go
try one last time. Wish me luck.
That went better than expected. I hope so much that I helped.
