Yes, he practices CBT: Combat & Battle Therapy

Does CBT cure PTSD, or does it cause PTSD?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

At least its not the other kind of CBT

I tried rubbing CBT oil on my feet to help with my anxiety. I couldn't walk right and was peeing blood for weeks.

A Klingon is the only counsellor with the relevant experience to treat O'Brien

Klingon runs out crying like a little girl.

"I came to counsel him and instead he counselled me! ..... puts his hands to his face mwahhhhhhh"

DS9 would be at 699.94% efficiency with this crew!

[–] AllonzeeLV 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah, but they'd have to deal with a 3,556.23% increase in irish drinking songs.

I hear he's partial to an old Earth ditty called "Louie Louie"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

How is that a problem?

Until someone needed to speak to the counselor.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You don't speak to the councilor

you fight him

It sounds like it wouldn't be very effective, but he manages to make it quite therapeutic

I really want this line in Lower Decks. It would fit right in.

[–] EmpathicVagrant 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Imagine if we used EMH tech to put him on every ship- THAT would improve the fleet unquestionably.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That would achieve the unheard-of 100% fleetwide efficiency. Not even the Q Continuum could stop Starfleet

I'd watch 7 seasons of this

I wish there was a series with Colm as Captain O'Brien! But he was in Star Trek from the TNG pilot up to the DS9 finale, I imagine he was sick of it once that finished up.

[–] grue 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

In order for O'Brien to become a Captain he would have had to become a commissioned officer instead of an enlistedman, and you just know he'd never do that.

[–] breckenedge 2 points 1 year ago

Doesn’t have to be Federation. He could be a captain of his own ship.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It'd mean having to dress up on those awful formal uniforms.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Honor to your union

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

That's it, I want a klingon counselor on lower decks.

[–] Ensign_Crab 6 points 1 year ago

Who's the transporter chief?

[–] Snoopey 5 points 1 year ago

Surely Garak should be included as the ship's tailor

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

I'd take the EMH over Bashir any day of the week.

[–] _stranger_ 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I want an EMH!

We have an EMH at home!

EMH at home

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

They should have stuck with the Bashir model, genetic engineering or no.
