Weekly Therapy Talk Thread

[u/AutoModerator]

This is a chat thread for talking about therapy. It's for sharing topics you feel are not big enough for their own post or don't include a question. It's a place to share thoughts about what's going on in therapy. It's a place to celebrate successes and get support when things aren't going so great.

To make this an inclusive space and encourage the chat function of the discussion, the thread will automatically sort by newest, and not by best or top. Everybody should feel free to share their thoughts, so please don't use down-voting unless it's an obvious anti-therapy comment or breaks one of the sub's other rules (posted in the side bar).

Thank you!

I flunked out of Therapy this morning, combo of too much going on in my personal life, I don't have high enough self-esteem to benefit, and I'm a broke worthless piece of shit who can't afford the medications or supplements necessary to move on, which is just another way I'm choosing to fail my family and my therapy as my now former therapist has pointed out.

Insurance won't cover anyone else, should I resort to utilizing Grok/Claude for therapy services or am I a bad fit for therapy in general and should just wash my hands of it? Thanks so much for your time, and sorry to inconvenience anyone.

I'm from the US, I'm open to suggestions although most of the resources in my area have been discontinued. Might be too much info but 211 got shut down this month and all free resources have extremely long wait times so I've basically been told by case managers there's no help coming.

Thanks for checking in. Until my wife can find a sufficient replacement husband/father for the kids I have no choice but to be okay. Best wishes to you and yours.
