Today, I made an appointment with a therapist because lately I've been feeling alone and like no one cares about me. I waited at her office for about forty minutes before the receptionist informed me that she must have forgotten about the appointment. Even my therapist stands me up. FML

God, I hate therapists. They don't even do anything for you, hun. You didn't miss much. I once spilled my guts out to one and was sobbing and all she said was "Wow, well you seem very very deppressed.....well I'll see you next week!" didn't do shit....about 6 months later, I confessed to an attempted suicide. Nothing. They are bloody frawds. #27 is stupid also :P

This has happened to me. I haven't seen my therapist in a month and a half because she stands me up every appointment and no one bothers to tell me, so believe me I can sympathize.

18....your comment was completely unnecessary. There's no reason to assume the therapist had an emergency. It's very stupid of you to try and make the poster feel bad when you have no idea whether the therapist really forgot or not.

How the hell has this happened to so many people?? How do therapist keep their jobs if they arent actually doing their jobs? Sorry you're depressed, try finding a family member or trusted friend or teacher/co-worker to talk to about it.

#18 - you can't even get your terminology right? A therapist would never call a client a customer - they're clients or patients, depending on the situation.

#32: not all therapists are like that. your single encounter with a poor therapist does not generalize to all therapists. incidentally, therapists are people too. other people forget dentist appointments, doctor's appointments, and even to pick up their kids after soccer practice. therapists aren't forbidden from making mistakes.
