Mine did too. I also had to help him look for his Depends.

Loved that guy, though. :heart:

I had a therapist who tried to convince me that the dead were reincarnated.
He seemed to have his own agenda and wasn't even listening to me anymore.
This was grief counselling.
I ended up swearing at him and walking out.

Another therapist (whom I was only dating) went into a rage against me because her best friend tried to seduce me.

Another therapist tried to convince me that I was lying about not being a junkie (those were mosquito bites on my arms).

Still another therapist (whom I was also only dating) tried to recruit me into her communist social club (or was it a socialist commie club?).


Here I thought my experience with mental health professionals has been complex, but reading this makes me feel they're rather vanilla. :lol:

I heard about a flight instructor who fell asleep, and could only be woken up by the signal used for imminent danger on his agricultural work early in the morning.

My mother had a math teacher who had narcolepsy.
