This reminded me of something. My therapy sessions with my T are pretty much like the ones in the show Black Box, which is a TV drama that was cancelled after 1 season on ABC (SO PISSED IT CANCELLED!!!).

Anyways, the therapist is like my therapist and I am like Dr. Black. She is in her late 30s in the show and the therapist is probably in her 60s. So the age difference is on spot (except I'm 18 and my T is about 45). So I could see us still seeing each other up until how old the characters are in the show. Or beyond hopefully!

And I act like Dr. Catherine Black (the shows protagonist who has bipolar disorder) but she hides it from everyone at her work and life. But her therapist in the show knows since she has seen her since Catherine's first break... Catherine cycles into mania and depression and misuses drugs. Her mother also had bipolar disorder and committed suicide. She also had a bad childhood. She is a Genius neurologist. She has unstable relationships. The therapist and Dr. Black have maternal transference and it's just so perfect and so close to my transference with my T!!! I don't know if I have Bipolar disorder, but I relate to a lot of the things she goes through. I go from high to low a lot and I am emotionally unstable... Hospital trips too. Never had full on mania but probably hypomania. The idea has been speculated though.

Anyways, I would post a video on here of some moments where it is so relatable to me, but idk how to post video! (Or Vine... Someone teach me?) but here are some photos and a link to a description of the the show. So pissed it got cancelled . Why am I surprised though? That always happens to me!

Therapist on left & Dr. Black on right.



The face I make when T says I need to start making better choices.



Hey look, it's me in the ER! Lmao... I shouldn't be laughing. That's probably what I look like too. Pissed off and restrained.





Me when I am acting crazy/making bad choices and I feel like a ****ing genius. (When I'm in reality, just a lunatic)



Me when my T asks why I can't just find a happy medium.
