2023 is a milestone in my career. At last, I am embarking on training as a Jungian psychoanalyst.
What a journey it has been!
I have become skilled at diagnosing and prescribing medication, but sitting with a patient in deep despair hour after hour has been a different ballgame. Slowly my angst about what to do or say to help the patient is dissolving, and I can bear to sit and wait to see what will emerge.
I will continue with my skills groups and try new possibilities for Treatment-Resistant Depression, such as TMS and ketamine. Still, I will share my musings on life, the universe, and everything as I go through four years of psychoanalytical training.
But- take note of my disclaimer. I have always been opinionated, and my opinionated nature has been the source of my greatest failures and successes.
I might upset people, even though this is not my intention. I want to keep a record of how my thoughts and attitudes change through the process of my training. If things I say help or entertain you, I am happy for you!
