Today, I was sent to group therapy. A girl spent twenty minutes telling us horrible details of having been raised incestuously. A side effect of my new medication is yawning. FML

Thanks to everyone who shared their personal experiences, offered their support or sympathy, or made me laugh.

Cover your mouth and apologize if necessary.

Hopefully others are aware of tthat meds effects. At least it doesn't react like Viagra.

Did she have silver hair and own any clothing with a three headed dragon on it?

I was expecting a Lannister joke, but I guess that works.

Yeah that probably would have been better.. Oh well.

Show it anyway

I could be wrong, but it sounds as if #31 is mocking Paris Hilton.

What does a worn out ***** have to do with this FML?

Just tell her it's your medication and not her story

Ugh, been there. Well, not THERE exactly, but I yawn all the time so end up accidentally offending people from time to time. Look on the bright side - you know it's happening so you can explain and be polite about it (I don't even realise I'm doing it anymore) and everyone in group therapy is likely to have been through a lot themselves so I'm sure they'll understand.

I have this tendency to yawn when I read aloud. It's awkward.

You at least explained the situation, didn't you?

Yes, I did. Thank you for not assuming I was raised by wolves.

English or some sort of cognitive sentence in another language please

If its a group therapy session, just talk it out with people. You are probably in good company. I used to get raging stiffys from my meds, it was super hard to do anything!! I stopped taking them shortly after, haha.

That would be a much worse side effect to have during a discussion about incest.

When it's your turn to talk in your group therapy, you could've explained your medication side effect outloud.

I don't think she'd be very offended someone doesn't seem to find her trauma particularly engaging.
