Yesterday I turned on my MacBook Air, logged in, and joined my online video therapy session expecting to process some of my “triggers” that happened this week and have the therapist tell me, “Yes, that is very insightful and you made a good decision in response.” Instead… you want to know what happened instead? Apparently I don’t have a “core sense of value.”

My therapist is an a**hole. A professional and a very good counselor a**hole.

Since then any free time outside of watching Avatar fiery ash people, I am obsessed with finding out what “not having a core sense of value” means :::le sigh:::
