This is why therapy exists.

[-] FunkyMonk@kbin.social 85 points 11 months ago

For rich people or born lucky health plan countries?

[-] GreenMario@lemm.ee 77 points 11 months ago

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...

Watch out, Jedi code didn't work too well for Anakin

[-] GreenMario@lemm.ee 16 points 11 months ago

Can relate.

Oh well as long as I don't run into sand I'm good.

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 4 points 10 months ago

I suspect the lava did more work than the sand, but oh well.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

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

And the most important: there are four lights.

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

For that goto ER, get shit fixed and lol never pay the bill what they gonna do, Rebreak it? 🤣 Destroy my credit‽ HAHAHAAHHHAHAHH

[-] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

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.

Is your user name a drug that chills you out before you die horribly?

[-] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Lmao. Bars just make me fall asleep. I was going for a palindrome similar to my irl nick-name, but I fucked it up.

[-] match@pawb.social 4 points 11 months ago

[-] FunkyMonk@kbin.social -1 points 11 months ago

never was color depending unless you go back maaaany centuries.

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works -4 points 10 months ago

Unless you were a cishet white dude, America has never been the place to be born lucky in

[-] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Be born rich, and all other identity categories cease to matter.

[-] GreenMario@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 10 months ago

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

[-] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

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

[-] Pelicanen@sopuli.xyz 6 points 10 months ago

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.

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 10 months ago

Exactly, this is what I mean. Yea.

[-] ReluctantMuskrat@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

This opinion is definitely not your friend.

[-] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 10 months ago

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.
