I've had a couple of people ask how I stomach what I do for a living (acute inpatient psychiatry) and one of my answers to one of the aspects is that a lot of this was going to happen to them anyway and they may as well have at least one person there who's been there and won't be a asshole about it (or any more than I have to be anyway). Also everybody's a mental health advocate who wants the poor sweet depressed babies to be loved more until they're at a stoplight and a homeless schizophrenic on PCP starts wiping period blood on their car while yelling about how Obama filled their vagina with spiders. Some of us didn't get the cute mental illnesses OK.

It’s just is what it is. People get it or they don’t. Someone has to do this work. You don’t see people stim off your blood after they’ve finally succeeded in lacerating you and change over night…but I think maybe after a few years these things get weirdly mundane and... I am fine with it though. It’s fulfilling.

ADHD and anger issues apparently scares therapists. "Sorry my issues are a bit more complex than thinking my 3lb pampered dog hates me."
