Sooo many quacks out there. Glad I’m not alone.

My wife got a lot out of seeing a therapist (not add, but something else), so a year ago, she convinced me to try. Her therapist didn’t have evening hours, so I found someone else who did. I tried over a few sessions to explain how I was having difficulty with boundaries and following through with exercise and diet. My job was sending me overseas a lot, and i couldnt prioritize my health properly. His advice was, “wake up half an hour earlier.”

I paid $175 for this? I called him on it: “you can’t be serious. That’s your advice?”. He told me to try it for a week, and I told him we were through.

If not for the psyche eval for the gastric bypass, I still wouldn’t know about my ADHD.
