        Always love this. “Go to therapy!” Gonna pay for it? “…no”

        Well back to suppressing my emotions again. There is no emotion, there is only peace…

          Same when Republicans say “it’s not guns, it’s mental health.” Okay, you going to support universal mental healthcare then? “Shut up, commie.”

          What do you want people to say? Should we stop telling people to get broken bones set because they can’t afford it?

        Yeah, pretty much. It’s just better not to put that emotional weight on people, if you can.

        There’s a lot more therapy services coming out, though! I wouldn’t argue it’s easily accessible, but it’s getting there.

            I’m that and no still wasn’t even in the mid 80s. Add “ballin’ as fuck at birth” to that criteria and were onto something.

      Your therapist is not your friend, and using therapy only as a place to vent is a waste of their time and your money.

        Why? They’re there to talk. Are you thinking of a psychiatrist?

          Both therapists and a psychiatrists offer mental health care, therapists aren’t just people to vent at (even if that is usually part of their job). Psychiatrists are medical doctors that can prescribe medication, however.

          Well, therapists can help a lot more than just venting! And if you vent you’ll probably run into some feelings a therapist can help you untangle. You’re right, better to try it than not.
