Today, I found out the reason why my therapist was so nice to me all of the time. Apparently, she is afraid that I'm going to stab her if she pisses me off. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I ran into my former therapist. Still confused by her last email, I asked what she needed to "protect herself" from. She said she needed to protect herself from feeling sad and worrying that I'd get beaten up. I'm afraid I now understand why this country is so messed up. FML
Today, I went to therapy. I started talking about my childhood and my life. By the time the session was over my therapist was crying. FML
Today, I found out that my dad has a therapist. That's cool. What's cooler is that she's a very nice lady, and even said to ME that I could talk too if I wanted to. Boy, do I want to. But if I did, then she would probably need a therapist herself, and the last thing my dad needs is his therapist needing a therapist. FML
Today, I tried therapy to talk about my problems without feeling like i am harassing anyone. After messaging a therapist for over 2 hours, I felt way better and finally understood. It turned out I'm in such a bad mental state that I'm a danger to myself and others. Police were called by the therapist. FML
Today, my therapist farted three times during the same session. FML
Today, after my boss thanked me for being so "reliable" all the time, I confessed to her that I have really bad anxiety, which has given me a crippling fear of disappointing her and ending up jobless. Even after reassuring me that she would never do that, the feeling is still there. I think I need therapy. FML
Today, I had my first appointment with my new therapist. After I told her my family history and past abusive situations, she looked at me and asked, "How are you still sane?" FML
Today, my therapist started laughing at me whilst I was telling my story. He said, "Sorry, I can't help it" and burst out laughing. FML
Today, my therapist clapped for me when I told her I'd made a friend. FML
Today, I came to the unpleasant realization that my friends only keep me around because I’m nice, know when to keep my mouth shut, and am willing to listen to them vent. In short, I’m the therapist friend. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

They're nice to you because you pay them. Follow the money. If she thought you were really dangerous, she'd send you to a psychiatric hospital. She knows you are just a pussy full of rage and impotence. She's not afraid you'll pull out a knife, but that you'll put away your checkbook.

Don't worry about it until you see either people with a nice white jacket with lots of buckles and long sleeves or a policeman joining in on your sessions. :D

Maybe if Op where to hide the 13 inch blade hanging from his pocket, he wouldn't give that impression.

I work with psychiatrists. They see ppl they're scared of all the time. It's not cause if the pay check - they have waiting lists, even in the states. They often feel bad for being scared or really think they can help or are too chicken shit to refer out. They're usually scared cause the persons black (seriously), has a violent history, talks of harming others even If they say they won't really, etc

Do you use phrases like, "It made me so mad, I wanted to STAB somebody!!" ? That may be your problem (;

Lol this reminds me of someone I used to know, ironically named Josh. Either way, I loled. Your therapist is dumb. She's scared of her own job.

Why the hell was my post duplicated?

well she does deal with some crazy people. that's expected; it doesn't say anything about you. if I was a therapist, I wouldn't walk with any of my patients through a dark empty alley. who would?

People go to therapy for different reasons. Some are totally fine and safe and ok to walk in dark alleys with.

Ohh I'm sorry, I didn't realize that's how that would come across! I meant you never know someone for sure, and therapists DO deal with odd people. which means that she's cautious just from habit. But as I said, that doesn't show anything about you.

You probably have a scary life threatening vibe about you to make her think that. Try coming off a little less crazy.
