staunchly against toddlers being given phones. stop that. give them little stuffed animals to play pretend with. fucking talk to them for a second even. stop giving them your phone. stop giving kids phones and ipads. stop it.
One thing I’ve discovered is that sometimes you can’t understand your feelings until you make trouble and get hurt. Sometimes we don’t know how we feel until we’re at our worst.
oh my god therapy is not a “mutual exchange” its a service used to help YOU. you should not be friends with your therapists or know more about them than their basic info or the occasional relevant anecdote. by the very nature of them going to school and starting their practice they are saying “yes i am comfortable with hearing potentially triggering content”. if a therapist is uncomfortable with anything you say or do they TELL you because theyre professionals! jesus why are we even having this conversation!
