I don't really need a therapist right now but I definitely wouldn't mind someone who's job is just to listen to me vent about various frustrations.

I don't really need a therapist right now but I definitely wouldn't mind someone who's job is just to listen to me vent about various frustrations. Like, I don't need you to fix anything - nor can you fix what's frustrating me - but just having someone where I can be like "can you believe the narcissistic stupidity of this fucking comment?" and they can be like "yeah fuck that guy. Alright see you next Thursday."

...that is a market I never knew needed cornering.

@nateb you’re describing a therapist lol

[nateb@mastodon.thenewoil.org]

@jonah Am I the only one who wants my therapist to actually help me fix shit? I'm not gonna pay you $250/hr to listen to me rant. I can rant at my cats for free. If I'm paying you that much, I expect you to help me solve an actual problem.

Or maybe I'm just used to the VA where you only get 10 sessions so like, we're here to fix a thing not just chat.

@nateb what I'm hearing is that you need to move to the UK and go to the pub...

@freddy It'll be a cold day in Hell before I move to the surveillance camera capital of the Western world. You guys are the only country in the West that looks all our dystopian shit here in America and goes "fucking amateurs. Hold my pint and let me show you how it's done."
