A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
I was describing my insane in-laws for the record.
Going to therapy is like going to shaman or crystal-ball damme: you don't know why but sometimes it works. Near to "always" you waste your resources and time and reveal shameful secrets to an unknown person.
I don't think those are therapists you've been seeing...
No, I've had similar experiences. If your experiences/perspectives are considerably outside the norm, many "shrinks" - who likely are among "the norm" - just don't get it. Never mind there's always some who are just there for the money - my mother was quite happy with hers because he told her what she wanted to hear, which ultimately caused more harm than good.
EDIT: Political/religious leanings also often play into how things go.
Absolutely this, I had one assigned therapist/* who really turned my life around and it was all because she'd been through the meat grinder when she was younger too.
