I'm not running away from problem...

Today I had an appointment with a psychiatrist. Finally I decided and went with it to see 1. I hope to be able to solve the current problem I'm having. So I'm very fine with the thought of visiting one unlike what people think of, such as only those 'mad' ones then will see a psychiatrist. Actually I find that my case isn't that serious to the extend to see a psychiatrist but nevertheless, what a psychologist can do, so can they. It's just that happened someone knows 1 so I went with it. During the session, I just told whatever I want and shortly after, I began to cry while telling my situation. I don't know for what reason I cry but just felt sad inside and got the urge to cry it out. Actually what she said to me I know it very well what's wrong within myself but somehow unable to get out. She had made some suggestions which I think I could try applying it when I need it. I also did tell her that sometimes I wonder if I'm running away from problem (refering to withdrawing from local uni) after hearing all the comments from those who know that I had such decision. Initially, I do seriously think I'm running away from problem but she said that if I am, I wouldn't be there to consult her for my problem.
To an extent I agree too and indeed I should be more confident for the decision I made. I don't know what will be in the future and all I can do is just to progress forward and not to look back. Clinging tightly on the past can obstruct one's way however if holding on to what is neccessary can enable one to progress forward bravely...

Thinks to remember:
1) Don't expect people to fully understand what you're going thru and the decision made. People tend to give comments without knowing the exact process u're going thru so it's normal to hear comments u dont agree. However, take it easy... as long u know what u're doing therefore...
2) Be more confident of your decision
3) Giving up a good chance may not necessarily be bad as what majority of the people think as long u know why u're doing so. As such, this does not imply that u're stupid or what. Intelligence can't be measured like that, just like what common IQ tests test for. Therefore, under such situation, Sternberg's and Gardner's intelligence theory are very applicable and also 'fairer' because they do not place too much emphasis on the end product of thinking like IQ tests does. Process too, is very important and shld not simply see the end product. Perhaps living in this fast paced world, everyone wants everything to be fast so even when it comes to thinking, shortcuts are used. Shortcuts are good because it saves time and effort but over reliance on it can be errorenous too.
4) There are always alternatives so do not be afraid. Now afraid is because can't see other alternative ways that can also lead us to the goal. So always bear in mind that alternatives are always out there. Now can't see it doesn't mean in the future can't see it. So now just concentrate on whatever is within your sight. =)
