Who's in therapy?

[Fedorgasm]

I have zero facts but I think falling in love with your therapist is something that happens much more in movies/tv than real life.

Also, you're married, how often do you fall in love now?

I haven't fallen in love with anyone other than my wife. But I read that when you're baring your soul and innermost thoughts to a therapist, and they don't judge you, and they help solve your problems, and they support you, etc. that it can be intoxicating and that's why people fall in love with them.

I've been to marriage counseling and didn't fall in love with the counselor though. Probably because she didn't take my side.

But in a 1x1 counseling session they're much more likely to be on your side. Tell you everything's ok, as she sits next to me, and places her hand on my thigh, and reminds me how everything that happens is that room is confidential... Then she leans in closer...

BRB!

Yep. Diagnosed with PTSD, Depression, and Anxiety. I gets my therapy through the VA. Most of my sessions are through the VA Video Connect App with my therapists.

Best of luck, research Any SSRI Meds before taking them.

I would assume the need for therapy more often than not is about your loved ones.

When ya grow up with a male or female o vindictive narcissistic parent, a disfunctional family WILL result. "Opening up deeply" to any negative family member can leave you being even more vulnerable.

So we agree.

I'm in the process of choosing a therapist and for some reason I'm not liking the male options. I think I might have trouble opening up to a dude. And God forbid I actually cry in front of him. Eeeeww.

So I thought I'd pick a female, but then I remembered hearing that it's common for a patient to fall in love with their therapist.

That sounds like a problem I don't need, especially as a married man.

So now I'm trying to find an old ugly female therapist. But it's hard because I have low standards. Which is probably something I should talk about in therapy.

And I know I'm supposed to be completely honest in these sessions, but what if she asks why I chose her? I can't say "it's because you're ugly"

I think I'm doomed

A- You're my boy Gasm,,,err I mean you're my Fedor boy, well you know what I mean so I hope whatever has you not right gets put right however you have to do it to right put it

2- I'd suggest, me, you,& @Sonny Qc see a couple of his therapists in a group session with all the strippers in his life, some salt and some limes, just to see how it goes

C- Never done it myself but I have worked with a more than a couple of Phd. level therapists and let me assure you they are as fucked up if not more so than you , me or anyone not actively posting in the war room.

Not saying they couldn't help you but get to know anyone for a year or two and, what is the old saying,,,,,,nobody is a hero to their butler.

4- I really just came here to tell this story but had to pretend like I cared on the first 3 bullet points to not seem selfish and uncaring.

In the very fucked up self help weirdo era of the 1970's my mom had a friend who was a truly airheaded MILF.

they appeared to have the perfect family compared to my dysfunction lot, you know kisses when they saw each other, mom picks the pits out of your orange juice and whips it frothy to make it nicer, no flea infestations in their living room, you know perfect!

One day, many years after we had moved away and lost touch, they reconnected. Her friend got all weepy telling her how much it meant that my mom stuck by her when all the other neighborhood women rejected her because of the orgies her therapist had her involved in.

My mom replied "What Orgies???!!!????"

BTW it turned out dad was closeted and finally came out, older sister ended up strung out, kid I was friends with got put in an institution and underwent elctro shock therapy, and the MILF re-married a very wealthy man and lived a seemingly very happy life without looking back at the ruins of her family behind her.

Good luck with your therapeutic orgies Sherbro

Oh and please think about joining a cult next, I have a good cult story I'm dying to tell too.

 

[Mock Artwork]

That therapist has probably talked to horror stories that would break your brain in two.

I doubt this will be any earth shattering revelation for them, friend! Just lay it out. That’s what they get paid to doZ

The whole thing was good, but this was my favorite part.

Also, I've never heard that expression before but I love it and I'm totally stealing it!

You can tell ole Pete your problems, I wont judge

He might want to bang you though

 

[Bob Gray]

I probably should be.

 

[Tito Tapped]

You're not going to crush on your theripist. These are either old ladies or short haired liberal lesbians. I've had one of each and honestly the guy related so much better than the female did.

Reggie from Becker, Fucker.

She’s a Betty.

[Takes Two To Tango]

But your dog will and gossips to the other dogs on the street.......

Female therapists aren't a good idea for me...... Always end up having sex with them.......

 

[matheuss92]

Finding a female therapist was a must for me. Just cant open myself to a dude, there is some kind of block there. But talking to friends about it, thats almost universal among men.

I always find myself sexually attracted to them (even if they are ugly) but thats not something I find useful to talk to them. What I understand, apart from talking about everything you want to, the focus point should be stuff that bothers/make your life harder. Being a degenerate is the least of my problems

@Fedorgasm Don’t do it. They’re not ready. Unless you wanna know about the most common obvious shit about yourself. In which case, you could just Google elements of your pattern behaviors and issues, unless you’d really rather someone do it for you and ink it to your medical records to potentially be held against you.

Like most medicine, there are a handful of innovators and an excessive volume of googlers who treat statistics like blood tests. Ai can do what those meat husks do without the manifesting projections of self. Data entry receptionists.

What makes people themselves are the unique elements of themselves not the most common parts. Most therapists are not looking at that: they want to simplify you and treat you like data, while farting in their own mouths about their grand majestic empathy for racism, gender bias, agism, classism, demographics of the most base sort, and defining you by them. They like multiple choice answers rather than essays. theyre the type to claim themselves as some four letter personality type, talk about their race and their antiracism, and tell you that they like “reading” with no regard for any specific literary content. could be old vhs manuals or fantasy lore. Who knows? Who cares? What their saying is they’re “smart”

Don’t take my word for it though. Please check it out and see for yourself. A lot of specialized workers don’t have the time, attention or interest to divide for their own research into these things, and for them perhaps it’s eye opening. But they’re not gonna tell you much more than you can find for yourself on Google. Again, the only difference is that they will have access to write on your medical records their “opinions”/associative copy pasting.

A lot of people like to be told who they are. I’m not one of them.

 

[THEfightsAREfixed]

If I went to therapy my therapist would try to blow me (male or female)

That’s the only reason I keep posting in Mayberry …

I literally went once and realised it isn't for me but I think it helps some people having the undivided attention of someone who will just listen. I would dearly love to be the person who could just turf all their issues onto someone and say see you next week feeling better.
