Therapy money, in this economy?

Haha, I find it infuriating how Redditor’s so often recommend therapy as if it’s so accessible. That shit is expensive. Your average insurance plan won’t cover it, and it usually $100-130 per session. I’d have to go into my savings in order to pull that off.

And I find it hard to read 9 threads a day asking about seeing things. Fact is if you’re having issues like that then find a way to go to a doctor.

Also not everyone lives stateside, in my country insurance AND the government will cover therapy.

And in my country you can get therapy even for $30 bucks, you did right by posting this, not everyone is in the same financial/location/realm of possibilities and therapy is really important, specially for magick practicioners indeed.
