    This is my issue with therapy - ultimately I’m actually very okay with the things that are “wrong” with me. They’re only “wrong” because they make it significantly more difficult for me to be an exploitable source of labor. If I wasn’t constantly being pressured into being more willing to accept my own exploitation, then I would be drastically more relaxed. The best they’re gonna do is give me better coping strategies, which like… I guess that’s cool? shrug-outta-hecks

      Once I told her I have a problem getting to work on time, and that’s because I often practice quitting in the mirror before I lose my nerve and just go to work. I do this ritual because I can’t stand my job and want to be free of it

      Her advice was that I should make a weekly schedule on paper to wake up earlier, so I can more effectively get to work. Completely missing the main issue
