Okay, here goes.
Normally I would stay miles away from this topic because it is irrelevant to me and because I respect people's need to joke and have fun.
However I have to say that it does make me cringe.
I went to therapy because of serious issues with my self. I do not attribute any of these issues to anything anyone did or did not do to me in the past. These were issues of who I am, why I am and what I can possibly do with the rest of my life.
Although my therapy relationship was certainly rocky, I developed profound respect for my therapist and the way he struggled to help me find answers. I am not a conventionally religious person but therapy room certainly seemed other wordly at least or even a sanctuary.
And despite all our struggles, if I step back and define my therapy relationship I would say it was sacred, set apart.
Not something I can bear to have desecrated. Not that that is anyone's intention. But my own issues make me feel like that when these threads dominate babble.
