Today, I had an appointment with a psychotherapist. I was feeling very depressed and was telling her how I felt no one cared about me. Her phone rang and she left me mid-sentence to take a call about her new BMW. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Thanks, that helps
Today, I made an appointment with a therapist because lately I've been feeling alone and like no one cares about me. I waited at her office for about forty minutes before the receptionist informed me that she must have forgotten about the appointment. Even my therapist stands me 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
You helped her see the light
Today, my girlfriend left me, saying she'd started to appreciate herself more with the help of a therapist. That I paid for her to visit. FML
Today, a therapist told me that I was too depressed to attend his depression group meetings. FML
Ghosted
Today, I realized it's been over a month since my last therapy session. My therapist canceled on me and never got back in touch to reschedule. 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
Red flag
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, 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
Today, I reduced my psychologist to tears. FML
Let it out
Today, I finally convinced my mum to take me to a psychologist. As soon as he sat me down and asked me how I was doing, my mum burst into tears and went on a rant about how her life is terrible and she regrets everything. I was asked to sit in the waiting room. She used up my whole hour. FML

One of my friends has a T-Shirt proclaiming that they take the 'the' out of psychotherapist.

Totally out of line. Her phone should be off during a session. I'd let her know that you would appreciate her full attention during sessions, as you're paying a lot of money for it.

Good for you for having a sense of humor about yourself. However, if you need to feel someone cares about you all I can say (not being a therapist but being a student of the study of both psychology and sociology) no one will care about you untill you do, and those that do care will drown in your nuerosis. Eject the people from your life that don't care, get a decent shrink, and for the love of yourself, love thyself. How can anyone know who you are if you don't know who you are? Message me if you need someone to talk to or go to Angie's list or something. Your therapist seems to suck.

Mine takes the conversation off topic and takes phone calls and texts. I'll be wanting to talk about something and she'll want to talk about something unrelated. I'm quiting therapy anyways since there hasn't been much to talk about lately.

Completely unproffessional. She should be fired.

Get a new counsellor. They shouldn't even have their phones in the room.

You need a new counselor. She needs to loose her license.

it could have been a test to see how you react to those situations
