still frame of Star Trek: The Next Generation with edited caption by Swear Trek. Captain Jean-Luc Picard has his eyes open, lying on the bed in his quarters, facing the camera. Q is sitting up just behind him on the other side of the bed. Picard's caption reads, โ€œwhat the fuckโ€.

as much as this totally expected one-hour shift is going to throw off my rhythms for a bit, i am looking forward to more daylight.

i think what you said makes more sense. that post reminds me of this (below), but also... not. that one reads more like it should be in r/showerthoughts, to me.

i know i'm hypomanic because i know, logically, that i'm exhausted and need to nap, but my mind also โ€œhas too many tabs openโ€ as the metaphoric meme says, and most of them are constantly refreshing or redirecting. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

yeah, there needs to be some kind of client/patient education. good practitioners do this. not nearly enough, though.

bc iโ€™m not a therapist & shouldnโ€™t be the one explaining to people how itโ€™s supposed to work

you canโ€™t just go to the appointments and wait for things to improve.

itโ€™s not like taking a weekly dose of medicine that helps you get better, even while you sleep.

thatโ€™s not what therapy is at all.

for people seeing a therapist for their mental health for the first time, i think it would be cool if the first session was like Therapy 101: explaining how therapy works, what it can/cannot help with, and how the patient can get the most from it

then get into their specific issues
