Little Girl Milly Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 My psych knows about my kinks, he knows about fetishes and the like.. but he doesn't know that I'm becoming active in ABDL. Link to comment
Little BabyDoll Christine Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 He should have better resources on his own. Fetishes are a well-known phenomenon. It used to be part of Ab Psych because it was considered rare when, in fact, I would wager that everyone has some, we just do not talk about it in public so hopefully that has changed I do not know whether to recommend DD or not. On the one hand, There is probably more material here to learn from than anywhere else. On the other, it runs the risk of violating privacy so I think I will not. Do we not have any active shrinks here who could act as interfaces? Link to comment
Dill_Pickle Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Sparkles: If he is a pro, it will change nothing if your being AB or DL doesn't bother you any or keep you from doing other important things.The shrink might be curious, or might remind you to be discreet in your public life, but that's about it.

Shawnie Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I told mine he just kinda grinned and asked me a hundred questions. I really dont think you can surprise the professionals at all these days. He should do his own research thats what you pay him for . Link to comment
h200420012 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Mine was a little bit more interested since he said there wasn't that much info in the DSM-IV. Link to comment
Midwest Babygirl Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Since he's already aware that you have kinks, and if he hasn't reacted negatively to them, you probably won't have to explain much. Link to comment
Little Girl Milly Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 I wish there was some sort of resource to pass on to him. The second I type in 'ABDL' to google it's all Link to comment
Midwest Babygirl Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I think you just nailed it. Link to comment

WakkoWannaBe Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Noooo! Sorry Sparky. Hope it gets better o.O. Link to comment
Snugglebear Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 As a professional he isn't supposed to "take it well" or "not take it well". He is supposed to provide an objective perspective and help you explore issues that are either causing you issues or interfering with your ability to function in life. He will have his own opinions to be sure but he needs to be able to apply proper professional detachment. If he cant then you may want to consider a different mental health care professional. As for resources, he should be referencing the most important and informed resource . . . . . you. External resources will not necessarily properly convey your situation and may create biased impressions. Why get someone else's work to explain your situation and desires when your own words will be so much more accurate. Snugglebear 1 Link to comment
diaperpt Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 He didn't take it well Time to move on to someone else. Really. If this person isn't willing to accept who you are, then you need to look for someone who will accept you. Link to comment

ImaDiaper Baby Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Hi winter, left a reply on your blog. Basically, you deserve a therapist who sympathizes and tries to understand first, then the two of you figure out what to do. Good luck & hugs. Link to comment
Dill_Pickle Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Sparkles I think we all heard something entirely different from you than what you intended to say with "He didn't take it well". We really didn't hear that he was concerned about you using it as an escape mechanism to avoid underlying issues. That's waayyy different, and no cause to fire the shrink, he is doing the right thing. Off to the blog! Link to comment

Dill_Pickle Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I realise that now, I've added an edit to that section. I'm not very good at expressing my thoughts sometimes, sorry Winter: Link to comment
