Today, I overheard my son mutter to himself, "If Hitler could do it to that many people, so could I..." Anyone recommend a good psychiatrist? FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my mother threw a fit because the psychologist she got me suggested I visit a psychiatrist. Apparently, it's my fault because I "choose" to be so "crazy". FML
Today, a licensed child psychologist with 20 years of experience threw my son out after his first appointment, with the immortal line, “You must be taking the piss, there’s a church in town, you’re gonna need their help more than mine.” He’s probably right. FML
Today, my mom read my diary. Then she frantically booked me an appointment with a psychiatrist. FML
Today, my wife is furious with me because I would rather our teenage son see a counselor instead of a psychiatrist. I want our son to learn healthy coping mechanisms for life, not just take pills to make everything go away. FML
Today, my psychiatrist said, "Well, good luck." at the end of my appointment. FML
Today, I told my parents about my life problems, after they forced me to open up. Now they want to send me to a psychiatrist. Don't trust anyone. FML
Today, I reduced my psychologist to tears. FML
Today, my dad told me that people requiring psychiatric treatment are just weak and pathetic, and what they really need is a kick up the ass and to get a fucking grip. He told me this not 30 seconds after my doctor recommended I spend some time in a facility for my severe depression. FML
Today, my coworker was going on and on about how her son was nice and got good grades but that she needed to find him a therapist because he's too shy in class, and how she didn't want her friends to think badly of her. She's a counselor. I sat in silence for almost an hour, because all I could think was, "WTF? Poor kid." FML
Today, my husband is furious with me for going behind his back and getting our son a psychological evaluation. His primary care physician, a psychologist, and a pediatric psychiatrist all agree that our son is AuDHD. My husband says no because he “doesn’t believe in that crap.” FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

How old is he? I feel like this is an important detail to leave out

Could be taken out of context.

Hopefully he can use that ambition for good. Remind him that: perhaps those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it.

Woah, I just re-read this and my mind got blown. What if the son meant "Humans are all capable of great evil" and that we all have the capacity for awful crimes?

Challenge him to fulfill Hitler's real dream: getting into art school!

Let's not jump to any conclusions, maybe he's talking about how Hitler convinced an entire country to follow him.

"Convinced" is a strong word. Some election rigging went down.

As long as he isn't also the same 7 year old kid trying to smother his mom with a pillow.... otherwise we are all in trouble!
