I went to a local office in MA

I went to a local office in MA. Though the therapist was friendly, the recommendations were not helpful. Maybe she was inexperienced as she was very young. In my 60's years, I have never thought of suicide. If you want to commit suicide, this may be your place!!! At work, I was put into a position I was not trained for outside my job description. I filled in a few times a month doing a job I had never done. I was having severe panic attacks, minor chest pains, etc, which I had never had in my previous 40 years. The therapist told me I needed to tap my wrist and breathe at some count, and with a few years of therapy, I may be able to do that job. Long story short, I went to another doctor, who wrote me a note that I couldn't do that job and told me to take some time off. I am all better now. A week later, I was back at work doing my old job and did not have to cover for someone else. Her having me think of doing that miserable job covering for someone twice per month who was out sick with no hope for me but tapping and breathing and therapy for two years was overwhelming. Plus, what they charge for bad advice is a ripoff.
