Would you...take $100 to listen/talk to me for two hours??!
Question: This sounds wierd but I am really thinking about asking an aquaintance of mine to sit and listen to me for two hours for $100. Here's the truth, I need to talk to someone about my feelings without the crap I get from my family. I am afraid I will not come out of this severe anxiety and depression without making some major decisions concerning my marriage and my family's religion.
I HAVE BEEN SEEING A PROFESSIONAL COUNSELLOR FOR A WHILE AND I REALLY NEED SOMEONE WHO CARES MORE!!! I know it sounds bogus but I also have NO FRIENDS anymore. My life's been hell and the truth is, if I didn't believe in Hell I would just die. Is it worth the $$ or a waist of time???

Paying your friend a $100 dollars may not achieve what you want and here is why. As much as your friend cares, she may not be able to understand the magnitude of pain and hurt you are dealing with. Of course, you do not have many friends, that is one of the problems associated with anxiety and depression. You have an incredible amount of insight that many in your situation do not have. Exercising or finding what you need to get to a life that you love is critical. Please feel free to email me when you want to talk, I will pick up the cost of the call.
i say dont waist the money and find some friends and there are some guys out there that are really emotiniol and can talk to anyone if you want u can email me and we can talk im really good with problems so tell me what u think about that
find a clinical psychologist, it's their job.
OK GIVE ME THE 100 AND ILL TALK TO YOU FOR TWO HOURS EMAIL ME IF YOU WANT MY NUMBER ILL LISTENT TO YOU FOR FREE BUT ONLY ONE NIGHTS AND WEEKENDS THATS WHEN I GET MY FREE MINUTES
You dont pay your friends to listen to you. They just do. That's what part of being friends Is for.
i think your all retarded shes just mental and needs help
well I would talk to you for free and I want to . wright me naldo4142@yahoo.com
Sounds like a good deal. Ask your acquanitance.
I'd talk/listen to you for free =].
I live in Indonesia, so my morning is you late afternoon and evening, it those time are convenient you can IM, or email me. I am also a old guy soon to be 71. so my own experience my be of benefit. Don't need money, have a nice dinner on me.
sounds like you really are depressed.. i have to wonder why you have no friends at all? would i take $100.00 for 2 hrs, um sure i would . just have to pencil you in..no really if you feel the need to talk to someone then i recommend that you ask this acquaintance to go for coffee and try to become friends. i don"t think you should have to pay someone to listen to your feelings that is not qualified. good luck
I would suggest taking that $100 to a new counselor (or social worker!). Trained professionals can offer the best advice for issues like these, but you need to make sure you've found someone you have good rapport with, not someone you feel doesn't care about you.
Plus, you shouldn't have to pay your friends to listen to you! I'm sure they'll do it willingly, but if you need help with anxiety and depression, you should really see a professional in addition to advice from friends.
I think just about anyone would pet - but would you really want them to listen without caring just for money? How worthwhile could anything they say be pet?
You say you have a counsellor but cannot discuss this with them, have you thought about talking to them about why you don't feel they can help you with this?
As for friends, there are plenty of people to make friends with pet, you just need the confidence to approach them
I'm sorry cos it sounds like you've had a lot to deal with, and with little support that's really hard. But would you want me to, in all honesty, take $100 off you just to listen to you? You're worth more than that honey
truthfully, you should not have to pay a friend or an acquaintance to listen to your feelings. They ought to be there for you and support you. However, you said you have no friends, but, even an acquaintance might just let you talk, without having to pay. That is like a bribe or something. Just ask the person if it is OK to talk about how you are feeling, see what happens?
I just feel bad for you that you would need to pay someone to hear how you feel. Especially a friend or acquaintance.
Definatly not a waste of time, I know your not asking me, but if you were, I would listen for free. If you can, go to a proffesional, they will understand and can do a lot more to help you. Good Luck
the problem is whomever you choose is not experienced to help you. It takes time to build up a repore with a therapist , you have to commit to it too! Go to this site and talk to someone, you need real help, you need a professional to help you. http://psychcentral.com/
