do u see dr baer, if not do you see anyone? . i cant imagine he would just let you and you think you are suddenly FINE
Dear Sally,
Yes, Dr. Baer and I get together every now and then to chat. We keep in touch though he is no longer my therapist. Dr. Baer and I maintain a respectful friendship and we continue to work together to share our story. I admit I’ve felt there were times when I’ve needed a bit of extra help. Realistically, I may always need someone to listen and hear me out at times. I’ve been through an exhausting life-changing journey to heal. I continue to do the best I can to manage life on my own. At times when I start to fall a bit from feeling overwhelmed or sad, I’ve learned how to recognize my own personal warning signs and ask for help. I am no longer in therapy but if I ever need it again, I will talk it over with Dr. Baer first, and most likely see someone else, since Dr. Baer is no longer in practice.
Thank you for caring, I am one woman trying to take care of myself.
Karen
