The fact that if you mention anything that gets you deemed as a “threat to others” you get reported is a huge turn off from therapy tbh. People want those with violent tendencies and fantasies to get help but they sure love punishing them!

My therapist just canceled and the appointment was in 3 hours 😭 I got out of bed and actually got ready for once and she canceled. I don’t blame her but I literally haven’t talked to her in 3 months ☹️

fuuccck.
my childhood was messy, but I never realized that the reason I love morally grey/villain romance so much is that those characters will burn the earth to keep their partner/love interest safe.
I never felt safe and I crave someone to go to the ends of the earth for me. (even if I don’t believe I deserve it)

before reading please know this is from experience and i am NOT dictating everyones experience, i am just ranting about bad instances about privilege/bad therapists/therapy, so before you comment (and ill know if youve read this at all by your comment = blocking) please read the four points!
…
THIS. i see antis all the time get their thong in a twist because people ship stuff they want to (that the anti doesnt agree with). and they usually follow up with a ‘kys’ or ‘get therapy!’ like, first all. therapy is NOT cheap, and no, online ‘free’ therapy isnt good either. it takes a LOT of work to find a therapist WITHIN price range AND actually agrees/supports/is okay with you as their client + that you even get to the point (which would be months or even years) being comfortable enough to tell them this stuff anyways without the fear of them insta reporting you and hauling your butt off to the ward (happened to me almost three times, two worked..).
as someone whos experienced bad stuff growing up, ive been to therapy for almost a decade now and let me tell you four things ive run into..
…
1• you have to pay a lot for these people. my therapist + med doctor NOW, costs about 2-300$ a visit, AND THATS PER (separate) PERSON, not two people in one visit. and this is out of our insurance (doctor recommended). but not everyone who goes to therapy has really good insurance/insurance at all, therefore cannot go because its too expensive + its a very priveleged thing to say ‘instead of projecting your trauma in a normal (or even non-normal) way through comships/proships FOR FREE (without it causing harm to yourself/others) go pay HUNDREDS of dollars because thats mainstream/it worked for me!!’ like do you hear yourself,????? everyone is different and no two traumas are alike, and even if once in a blue moon they ARE very similar, two seperate individuals can cope with that similar experience in ENTIRELY different directions/ways… anyways, you may say, ‘why not go to a person in your insurance’ you ask? I HAVE. many times. which brings me to number two.
…
2• bad therapists. listen, cheap isnt always better. ive had therapists make me pay my entire 30$ BEFORE the session starts, then cut me off around 30/40 minutes in (mid session/even mid talking) (they lasted an hour/hour and a half typically). cheaper therapists/local therapists that arent connected through doctor recommendations are not usually the best imo, along with ive heard really bad stuff about the free ones online + new psych students treating patients like guinea pigs/other issues..
…
3• they dont like you. listen, this is not the case EVERY time, but from experience, every therapist ive seen/talked too (about 10 of them now) has disagreed with me on my OWN viewpoint of my toxic household. but you may say, ‘oh but theyre allowed to disagree?’ yes! they can! but you cant be disagreeing about my abuser not being the issue and I am the issue instead (wacko). most (not all) therapists treat it as their job, and you as their customer. yes, some people have really good relationships with their therapist, but please dont think for one second they wont report you + say some out of pocket stuff because theyre the ‘experienced one’ (trust me, its as rude irl as it sounds).
…
4• what ‘tools’ they use/let you talk about SUCK. my newer therapist, granted, isnt the best but its all i have rn, doesnt personally let me vent or talk about my childhood trauma/stuff that actually bothers me. its always “catch me up since weve last talked” and thats it. always the same thing.. along with that, they give you packets about journaling your feelings, and someone who cannot just ‘breathe and count to ten to feel better’ these packets are genuinely useless and i usually dont do them. most therapists have a very basic and general approach to these intense things (especially neurotypical therapists) because they have the mindset of: A) works 9/10 times but if not, B) is the next best thing. and most times they dont actually get to know their patient outside of friendly conversation/med records..
…
if anyone stayed for the entire rant thank you lolz, it was a huge thing to get off my chest but it seriously irks me that, again, antis actually just look at surface level things within communities instead of actually hearing people who belong in this (and other) communities, then without a thought they deem it ‘problematic’, and spread mis-info and demonize the people doing it.
…
TYSM FOR STAYING HAVE A COOKIE IF YOU READ IT ALL 🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪 ILY ALL!!!
"you need to go to therapy" no thank you, fictional incest is cheaper

thinking about the one and only time i ever tried therapy.... she said i couldnt have a cluster b disorder bc they "weren't self aware" ???????????????? and then made more ableist assumptions about my mother without having met her (taking my BIASED pov as the truth and trying to dx a woman she DID NOT DO THERAPY WITH) and then kinda forced me into getting evaluated for autism when i literally said i didnt want a dx. which cost my mom 2k. and i didnt even get diagnosed with autism.
so no i dont plan on going to therapy ever again
#people say GO TO THERAPY!!11!1!!11 which only works if you're not Too Difficult for average therapists to work with#god forbid youre cluster b or traumatized in any way... they just dont know what to do with you#i can only imagine how much worse it is if you're not white. like ......................................#ableism#therapy#mental health#therapy is expensive#therapy sucks

Therapy is so cool because you're like
"Damn this limp is really slowing me down lately, wonder if I can do anything about it.. "
And they're like
"Absolutely! Can't wait to help you get around better!
So, step one, let's break your ankle..."

At the point I think therapy sucks and I'd be better at therapy than 90% of "licensed" therapists. Either that or somehow I got nearly every shitty therapist I could by accident. I've been in therapy for 15-17 years where I was CONSTANTLY switched. And only 1 of those therapists actually helped me at all, and I don't know where she is anymore. I miss her, literally everything got worse after she left and everyone else sucks.
#therapy sucks#it's literally never helped me except for once#i was a better therapist to myself than most of em#how did some of y'all get the job honestly#i had one insist i had schizophrenia#nothing wrong with that except it was an inaccurate dx#i wouldn't have been upset to learn i had it if the dx was right#how tf i know more about schizophrenia symptoms than the THERAPIST???#it's bc i had insomnia made hallucinations btw. as in sleep deprivation. yeah.#recently my current therapist has been pissing me off as well

i never did group therapy until I got into the intensive outpatient program I'm in and ohhhhhh wowwww it suuuuucks. it's like a high school class full of nothing but platitudes and psycho babble. and then they keep hitting you with the "oh it's only what you put in that you get out" and all the other shit to make sure I know it's entirely my fault if I get nothing out of this whatsoever. like they're just spouting buzzwords at me and then being like "if this doesn't help you it's your fault lol". why did i sign up for this
#therapy sucks#IOP#intensive outpatient#actually mentally ill#group therapy#i forget why i hate therapy so much and then i go into things like this and it all comes back to me

Today's therapy session was awful. I never wanted to disassociate so much in my life. I actually did in some points, completely unintentionally, but still. I hope my therapist doesn't think I'm crazy or something...
