Therapy is overhyped as a solution to mental health issues, anyway. It’s absolutely effective for a large proportion of people, but the field is filled with very fallible therapists and often the therapy provided is inappropriate, like CBT is unlikely to fix long-standing, complex mental illness. Good therapy is a godsend, but there’s more mediocre and outright bad therapists out there.

Honestly, okay so that one time I was diagnosed unipolar depressive and given Lexapro it did both the SSRI-hard-to-cum thing and a lot of disinhibition so suddenly I was dirty talking a constant stream and that stuck around after I went off it; and then I’m the last few years I think female-created sexual media, fanfic and gonewildaudio and OnlyFans and all has been giving a real glimpse at the thematic elements of female sexuality, and how often kink is a direct processing of your vulnerabilities; and then there’s the thing where after the personality change I’m suddenly more emotionally aware and empathetic after having trained my whole life to function on much thinner bandwidth…

What I mean to say is that I’m kinda concerned I’m fucking strangers I pick up in bars through a lens of performing therapy for them
