It bugs me too. There are a lot of people in the helping fields that are here being real, getting support for themselves and having mutual relationships with us. I enjoy having them here. The Hi I am a T or Hi I am a psych major and I am here to help... Well it just makes me want to puke then call their school or licensing board and have their credentials pulled. It is completely unethical to solicite clients... Clients have to come to you. There is a reason for that. This is our place not some kind of fish bowl or human behavior lab.
OK and "rescuer mentality" is a HUGE button for me. never mind rescuing me, get your crap out of the way and let me do my work!
