Here’s some real talk: we should all probably go to therapy at some point or another in our lives. It’s really helpful to talk to a totally unbiased person whom you don’t know at all to let it out and get some good advice.
If you’ve ever been to therapy or had some kind of counseling, these tweets will look familiar, and they’ll make you chuckle.
If you haven’t…maybe consider going.
1. Let’s switch gears…

6. You’ll be discussed in the next session.
People don’t seem very moved by my default threat, “my therapist will be hearing about this.”
