Hi,
I need to see a therapist and I don’t know if it matters whether I choose a clinical psychologist or a clinical social worker with psychotherapy training.

Nelly: No, I am not in school, though I was diagnosed while I was still [...]

H0: No weight difference before and after cognitive behavioral therapy: µ = 0
Ha: Weights are greater after cognitive therapy: µ > 0, a = 0.05
Decision Rule: If ((Xmean - µ)Sx/v(n)) > tst(n – 2; 1 – a) Reject H0
Xmean = ?xi/n = 87.2/30 = 2.91p
S2 = (?xi2 - n*Xmean2)/(n - 1)
(1757.80 - 30*2.92)/29 = 51.91379310

I strongly support cognitive behavioral therapy, psychology, clinical psychology, but, when it comes to psychiatry, I have my doubts. As we know, psychiatry is revolved around diagnosing medical conditions and treating them with medications, it is sometimes used in combination with cognitive behavioral therapy, but not exclusively, and psychiatry is just that on its own, [...]

Since I was 11 I’ve been severely depressed and suicidal. I don’t know if there is anything left to try, as I’ve done everything I know of (see below) but because I’ve been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder I can’t fix the chemical part of my depression. What do I do to stay alive and [...]

I’ve been depressed for years, and just started getting treatment for it… both medication and cognitive behavioral therapy. I am also a self harmer… but I had not done it in a long time.
Well, the day before yesterday, I started to lose it completely. I have wanted to lock myself away. Wanted to sleep [...]

My doctor wants me to start cognitive behavioral therapy for some of my more problematic tics. The tics physically exhaust me, some are self-injurious (not on purpose), and I always have a high level of anxiety from their constant presence and interruption. I’ve had CBT before for other things and am not really sure how [...]

It’s sort of a self diagnoses. I’ve been asking around for years and doing research off and on and I came across the symptoms for Social Anxiety Disorder. I seem to have about 90% of the symptoms in such a severe way that it effects my daily life dramatically. I’m unable to see psychologists or [...]
