    my therapist is a pretty cool younger guy. we shit talk capitalism all the time and he laughed when i said voting for joe biden was voting for 99% hitler. they're out there but i get they're not common.

    but yeah, focusing on things you can actually affect helps. kinda.

      There's more leftist therapists out there than you might think. The field inherently butts up against the injustice of capitalism if the therapist is worth their salt.

      how does one even find a good therapist. I went to one when i was a teen because my mom's friend recommended him, but i think he's retired now

            Well nothing is free, my therapist was paid for by taxes. And they made very little money, but they were excellent. Not all therapists are just trying to fleece people if that's what you are implying.

            Is your point that therapists don’t work for free? Because like….. yeah. I don’t think anyone here is under the impression that their therapist is helping them just for the hell of it.
