It’s where all my creativity happens🤡
Psychiatrists love this trick.

Usually in the first session, a therapist will look at your sleeping habits. It is a major indicator of issues.
Whether it is stress, anxiety, PTSD, addiction, OCD, or any other mental disorders, If this meme applies to you, I suggest you talk to a therapist. Now a days, you can do sessions all online.
Therapist: So it sounds like you’re tired all the time.
Me: yes.
Therapist: Are you sleeping well?
Me: No. But when I manage to sleep well for a few nights in a row, I feel amazing.
Therapist: Well it sounds like sleeping better would help a lot. Why don’t you tell me about your sleep routine?
Me: Well, I usually go to bed late, and then spend several hours staring at my phone until my eyes are itchy and I feel like I’m about to pass out.
Therapist: Oh. You shouldn’t do that.
Me: I know.
Therapist: You should skip the part where you stare at your phone for hours.
Me: I know.
Therapist: Okay, well our time is up. That’ll be $5000.
I wake up at three am and sit with my eyes closed until my alarm at 5:15. What do doc?

I wish. Germany usually has a combination of “bad internet”, “tech illiteracy” and “no appointments in the next 2-4 years” .
Canada and Germany are so alike sometimes…
Very good advice. Actual, trained and licensed therapists can help everyone at some point. Unfortunately, the majority are severely overworked and underpaid, so finding a good therapist that has experience or familiarity with your particular circumstances may take time.
