I am 67 years old. Seven years ago I tried to commit suicide, but my wife called medics in time to save my life. Unfortunately, I had previously been of the opinion that I didn't need professional help because I could work things out on my own as I was highly educated, well-travelled and I mistakenly had an exaggerated understanding of my ability to understand myself and my problems. Six years after the suicide attempt, I became very depressed and decided it was either find competent help, or I would be back on the road to suicide.
Within a relatively short time, Dr. Miklusak helped me recognize that I had repressed memories about my abusive father and
weak mother for over 60 years. If someone had told me that they had repressed such crucial and grave memories, I would have doubted his or her sincerity. The realization of these many childhood experiences and Dr. Miklusak's expert guidance have completely changed by outlook and attitude about the potential life has to offer me.
Of course, my sessions with Dr. Miklusak are far more complicated than just recognition of repressed memories, but the main point is that Dr. Miklusak's very high competence level and interpersonal skills completely changed my life from a daily experience of deep sadness to now waking up almost every morning excited to live that day. The main reason I had not sought psychiatric help in the past is because I had very little faith in a psychiatrist genuinely being able to help me. Dr. Miklusak proved me completely wrong about that opinion. read more
