To be with the truthful

In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent the Merciful.
"O you who believe, be careful of (your duty to) Allah and be with the Truthful"-Holy Qur'an(9:119)

“Hate no one, no matter how much they’ve wronged you. Live humbly, no matter how wealthy you become. Think positively, no matter how hard life is. Give much, even if you’ve been given little. Keep in touch with the ones who have forgotten you, and forgive who has wronged you, and do not stop praying for the best for those you love.” — ‘Alī ibn Abī Ṭālib (as)

My first therapy session

One important thing you need to get used to as a psychotherapist is that your clients are very unpredictable, you have to be flexible and expect the unexpected.

On my first day of therapy with a schizophrenic woman (who is in remission), she looked at me and said flatly:”I don’t know why you are doing therapy on me, I don’t have any problems.”

Of course I later realized that this IS her biggest problem!

I had come prepared for the session but I really wasn’t expecting her to say that because previous clinical interviews had established that she had insight into her illness.

I was planning to do Cognitive Behavior Therapy with her, now I will just have to do insight oriented psychotherapy first.
