Today, after breaking down in front of my therapist over some really sensitive issues, she decided to also break down. Not about my story but about her own life. I'm not being paid to comfort and console my therapist. FML

Special case

Today, and every time I meet a new therapist for support, I’m told that my issues are out of their scope of practice, and I get referred to someone who’s supposed to more experienced, and then get told the same thing. I’m too fucked up to even get the therapy I need to get better. FML

Transference

Today, my psychiatrist of 6 years suddenly and out of nowhere told me I need to see someone else. She gave me the equivalent of the "it's not you it's me' speech." Actually her assistant told me via email. I basically got broken up with by someone I was paying a lot of money to talk to. FML

Today, I saw a psychiatrist for the first time. After telling her everything I'm going through, she looked at me and said "You know… every five years or so I get a case completely beyond my ability to help." I guess it's been five years. FML

Did you go to a psychologist or psychiatrist? I'm guessing you went to a psychologist and depending on what your issues are, your therapist could be completely right.

See, there's a fine line between funny and creepy and to be quite honest Mr. Misfit, I don't know which side you're on.

Try talking to your therapist while standing. Unicycles are not very stable.

The 'you' in your sentence should not be capitalized Misfit. Please do not criticize other people's grammar until you learn it yourself. Also, please stop with the bad jokes. They are not funny. Not even a little bit.

Today, it was the first day after my promotion. Everyone, including myself, was shocked that I was promoted so quickly. I figured it was because of all the hard work and overtime I'd put in. However, my coworkers figure I'm just sleeping with the boss, and constantly glare and snicker behind my back. FML
