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.
Or make a meme about it and share with the entire internet, that works too. For instance, I once heard about this guy who was SUPER straight... (Pro-Tip: he ain't straight:-P).
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.
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
I never thought to do this until I decided to make one to cover my attemp at learning the development "trade" but it devolved into me just ranting about my issues with myself lol
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.
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
