Just what my therapist said last night. She said if she had no friends, no realationship and no job that she'd want to kill herself. She was saying in relation to my current life situation.
I tried to reiterate to her that yes, while my life certainly isn't great, there's people out there with terminal cancer, there's people disabled etc...
I just think what she said was absolutely disgraceful from a person who deals with people with mental health problems to come out with such crap. She's more or less saying if she was in my situation she'd think about ending it. That hardly makes me feel over the moon, though if I'm honest I'm more annoyed by her saying such a stupid thing then depressed.
It's make me wonder if she's competent enough. I think there's certain things you don't say to a patient and that's one of them.
