because "therapists will only provide therapy for as long as they receive money for it" is a weird take to thrust upon people who still need money to eat food to survive

"therapists will only provide therapy for as long as they receive money for it"

I see no lie.

right, and the fact that said therapists need money to survive is not a critique of those individuals, but of society

what's your point?

You aren't wrong. I also won't fix your computer for free, no matter how old or helpless you are.

Just because Capitalism has made you a monster doesn't mean we all must be beasts.

Okay, what do you do to earn your daily meal?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I do various things and all of them I also do free to help my friends or people in need.

I met my therapist as a stranger, he is no friend or family of mine. Same as my doctor

And many therapist will lower their rate and otherwise find ways to support clients as much as possible

i think it's great that some therapists are willing to go to those lengths to support those people that need it

but expecting this from them is unfortunately unreasonable
