Jesus Christ, that tops the worst thing I've ever heard a therapist say.

I heard a tale about a therapist in Iowa who after talking about issues with anxiety recommended eating brains shaped foods like, broccoli and walnuts.

What's the weather like in 1825?

Sadly it was only 4 years ago. But Iowa does feel like that sometimes.

I mean they have gravel county highways. When I found myself on one unexpectedly last year I said out loud "Why is this county highway unpaved? Why is Iowa a third world country?!"

Fucking ridiculous. Obviously you need to eat food shaped like your skull in order to enhance the beneficial humours.

Don't know if there's a distinction in English but when I read "therapist" I know that over here it can be anyone. Psychologist and psychiatrists have a professional order, therapists don't... You could decide to become a therapist tomorrow morning if you wanted...

You still don’t know a therapist has ever said this though.
