Lol unrelated to this dude’s issue, I wish I could just go to a therapist and vent, because I can’t express myself like that to anyone in my life, I’m expected to be a supporter. But there’s nothing clinically wrong with me
I didn’t realize it made a difference. I’ve had a few different insurances and it’s always been covered to some extent if it’s in-network. Never been asked to prove it was necessary.
Therapists are professionally supposed to keep themselves distanced from the emotional state of the subject, but that comes naturally for cats because they couldn’t care less about your feelings.
On the other hand, if you want some empathysing with what you’re feeling, get a dog (ideally mid-sized or larger) instead.
Obviously? I’m saying I’m in a band of people who don’t have access to it without paying out of pocket, and taking a spot from someone with actual clinical issues
You don’t need a reason to see a therapist. And just because you don’t have any easily diagnosable label for your mental state doesn’t mean therapy couldn’t improve your life. There is probably <1% of the world that are enlightened enough that they genuinely wouldn’t benefit from the experience
Feel you there. I need someone I can just talk to for like… 4 hours. Just dump everything out and get all the shit I went through outloud and try and process it that way. No one really knows what I went through. I tell bits and pieces to people but it’s just way too much for most people and makes them feel weird or uncomfortable. I just need someone to listen and then tell me that I’m going to be okay or alright.

My friend, you can just go to a therapist and vent, you do not need a clinical issue or diagnosis.
And therefore pay out of pocket?

$100 per session maybe, go once a quarter
That’s around the rate in my town anyway.
go vent to some hooker or prostitute, it is cheaper.
No it’s not… Again rates in my town.
your town therapist is cheaper? lmao
They’re colluding to inflate the price.
Yeah it’s Canada, therapy is 100$/h and prostitutes are $200/h. Do you live in some hellhole where therapy is $400 and prostitutes are $10?
so you’re saying prostitute have better life then therapist there? smh. the therapist need therapy
Get a cat.
Vent to the cat.

PS: I’m only semi-kidding.
Legit worth it though
One of those “if you’re on time you’re late” situations. The best time to go is before you need it
You just defined therapy. It’s one kind of therapy, and it’s expensive to use it for this purpose, but it’s therapy.

If it isn’t covered by insurance, I’m paying out of pocket to vent. No way.
