Do you think you could make a therapist

the only therapy I’ve ever provided someone was buying a very distraught friend a cup of coffee and
listening to them get some things out of their system.

But I never once said ‘tell me how you feel about that’ :slight_smile:

If I didn’t have the problems I have I would say yes. I could have done it when I was younger though. I’m empathetic, and compassionate. I’m a good listener and love to help people. I’ve been through a lot in life so I understand usually what people are going through

I normally think youtube videos on psychology are mostly useless, but I saw one from a girl that used to be inpatient and then wound up working as an assistant in a psych ward and she thought her experience as a patient made her more understanding towards patients.

I used to want to be an LCSW, but I don’t think I could do it. I get annoyed with people to easily. I would just want to scream SUCK IT UP! all the time. I don’t have the patience.

I’d probably have to deliver my “therapy” in a BDSM setting. No one wants to pay for tough love.
