I know I should go to therapy but then I feel bad burdening a therapist with things like, “I’m so angry that the only thing that helps me sleep is imagining the entire current administration getting hit by a very localized meteor,” because like, this shit is too big and we all have our coping mechanisms, right? At least mine isn’t substance abuse or self harm.
I should add “as a therapist in the US.” I have a lot of gay and trans clients, and it’s… bleak.

I’ve always wanted to traumatize a therapist by explaining how we live on a planet that is being systematically dismantled piece by piece.
Therapists aren’t made of psychic porcelain, they actually go to therapy to process the stuff they deal with.

You’re mixing up your con jobs. They don’t get paid progressively more at the top of the pyramid, it’s all just work.
It’s a laundering operation! But instead of money, the hot item is your trauma.
(I did enjoy psyramid though, gave me a grin)
