If you don't have these problems with any other person in your life, why do you think you're the problematic person in this one?

I love my brain it's it's lovely. To put into words how lovely have this:
Spike, this is supposed to be an intervention.
Where is everypony?
Kat’s having a breakdown,
Red and Yellow are stuck by themselves,
Kate’s crying because she feel guilty she’s hypersexual,
And my sanity is dead!
Anymore questions, smartass?

PLEASE I AM ON MY KNEES BEGGING, LAYING DOWN EVERY MORTAL AND IMMORTAL POSSESSION WE OWN
SCREAMING
Having to explain to my therapist that I was lying about hearing voices. *Not* because I wanted attention but because it was the least insane way I could explain it. [*Love* that I have to worry about not sounding insane in *therapy*]
Because. What sounds less insane? Option one(1) or Option two(2):
Option one(1):
I hear voices. There’s like seven of them but there could be more.
Option two (2):
There’s like a lot of us. But when I say ‘us’ I mean me. So like. There’s *me* but there’s also like *not* me but they’re also me. And there’s like a lot of us. I’m ignoring a lot because I’m like that’s enough…it’s…it’s enough slices. So I’m ignoring the ones that were there before *and* the ones that are coming up. And-
So yea some shit happened at therapy a few days ago!
I need a therapist that took a minor in philosophy. That way I’ll have someone who will be able to discuss my existential dread and also help me get over it.
Today I feel the need to post this somewhere that isn’t my deviantart.
I don’t like to post about my personal life and I am just one of many out there, but today, I want to just lay it down.
I don’t like to talk about my personal life because I have a fear of the repercussions it may lead to and what I might cause to myself and the others around me.
Earlier this year I started going to a therapist and he helped a lot, bless him, but I haven’t gone back since due to some other major life changing events I do not wish to dwell on. My therapist helped me realize that a lot of my anger and anxiety, which the latter of the two being through the roof, was caused by my upbringing. In other words, my inability to contain my emotions and how to deal with a sticky situation was not taught well to me as a child.
Then, on top of that and unfortunately many years of my life later, I came to fully realize that someone very close to me was, in short, a gaslighting narcissist. This person put so much strain on me growing up that I didn’t realize it. When I would sense something wasn’t really right, or my words would get twisted by this person but I was unable to do anything about it, I thought it was normal to feel as I felt.
I grew up walking on eggshells, and still do, and fearing of upsetting them. I can’t even begin to list all the things they do and have done to me nor do I think I feel comfortable doing so. Since going to therapy and realizing all my anger, anxiety, depression, zoning out, on top of many other issues, we’re caused by a lot in my past I feel like I really want to try and push forward.
I say this but I know darn well I probably won’t. However, I do, at this moment, have a sense of at least wanting to move forward. I would like to work on my projects again and really focus on the things that give me a little spark of serotonin. For the past five years I have spent procrastinating and depressed and in slow motion due to my home circumstances. I hate putting the blame all on this person- even if it was mostly them.
I do want to look forward to organizing and encouraging myself to work, but I feel like everything almost does not ever go according to my plans. So I say again, I want to look forward to start a new chapter, but we’ll see how that goes.
Can’t have too much of a good thing, you know?
just put some clothes over my pajamas. therapy fit
Bro even tho the triangle is traumatized as craps ands got a lot of issues im glad in one universe he can actually have a stable relationship and connections 🥲

How do you (“how does one”) shop for a therapist?
Can you call up a therapist and be like “hi, I’m therapist shopping”? Can you schedule an appointment with a therapist and then be like “actually I have some questions and I want to spend part of this appointment talking about your practice and whether or not it is garbage?”? Are you expected to phone interview/screen your therapists if you are shopping around for a therapist?
If you’re seeing one therapist are you supposed to/not supposed to tell them if you start seeing another therapist? Is it possible to cheat on your therapist?
You will get farther in one week paying close, nonjudgmental attention to the unmet needs underlying your "bad" behavior than you will in a year of punishing yourself and demanding you become a different person. I'm right shut up.
Therapy is risky because sometimes they'll just ask you their standard "why can't you, though", and you think you're making some good point by saying something like "well if I don't do anything with my life then what's the point of being alive in the first place" and your therapist gets that look on their face and you immediately realise that your dumb ass just got caught, pinned to the ground with your stupid-ass neck between the spikes of a pitchfork, and you are not going to wiggle out of there before you two unpack what the fuck you just said.
Feeling so upset rn
I scheduled my first appointment with my school counsellor today to discuss some issues and I've been looking forward to this for two days.
I had the time set and waited till the time and it just... didn't happen. There was someone else in there, whether it be overlap, unexpected visit or an extended session, I'm glad that person got their time but mine was lost because of it.
I feel like I just wasted my time, it's 3:24 now and I'm still at school, no appointment and no nothing and feeling worse.
My therapist told me to talk to my anxiety when I'm feeling anxious which is helpful... if my anxiety decides to give a real answer besides just "SOMETHING."
I’m still frustrated at my last therapist because she really insinuated that asexuals don’t have feelings. She was trying to explain the difference between romantic and platonic relationships and kept saying it was about the sexual attraction, but I brought up that asexuals can still have romantic relationships, and then I had to explain what that was and then she was like “oh yes, I know about that” and I was like “clearly you don’t”. But she continued and said “If a person brings their partner flowers, their partner will like it, but asexuals won’t have that same feeling.”
“What if the asexual likes flowers? Wouldn’t they still be happy with it?”
“Asexuals wouldn’t be able to feel that because they can’t feel like normal people do. They don’t have emotions.” Or something along those lines. I repeated it slowly back to her, and she quickly backtracked but it didn’t seem like her response was very different.
who needs a therapist when you have kokobot, am i right?
