Sign Of The Mental
I get lots of job notices, like the one below, from one of the email lists I'm on. Yes I sent them a note telling them that it's not a category I'm interested in, but they keep including them anyway. Fortunately, I'm good at skimming, and when I GTFO of California and settled, I want to learn speed reading. Like Jack Kennedy did most effectively, not just getting the gist of what he was reading, but absorbing the substance.
IMHO there are few worse messages that a "therapist" could deliver to a patient than:
"Your problems mean so little in the whole scheme of things that nobody will meet with you in person. Governments, medical facilities, they don't want to waste money on you to provide an in-person counselor, as distinguished from a Pharmaceutical Pez Dispenser, to sit down and help you to figure out how to improve your situation".
What a time to fight to remain human...
When life sucks and you're ready for help, call a friend and work together to find solutions.
“Sympathy” you can find in a dictionary; drugs you can find from most “Mental HELLth Therapists”.
