"Language without affect is a dead language: and affect without language is uncommunicable. Language is situated between the cry and the silence." Andre Green

You gave me fifteen hundred
To see your hypnotherapist
I only went one time
You let it slide

Fell on hard times a year ago
Was hoping you would let it go
And you did

Phoebe Bridgers, 'Motion Sickness'

I hear this as a tribute to friendship. Always brings a tear to my eye.❤️

"Patients need to want to come to therapy rather than need to."

[BrightonPsych @BrightonPsych]

Psychoanalysis, and thus psychotherapy, can only begin once the patient’s crisis has passed. It is always a crisis that brings a patient to therapy. But the crisis is not the work. The work is in the relationship. Patients need to want to come to therapy rather than need to.

“Psychoanalysis - and any good therapy - is a method of increasing one's awareness of destiny in order to increase one's experience of freedom.” - Rollo May

My go to psychotherapy progress note has always been “*facilitated* the expression of affect.” Just saying.

"Dr. Melfi. There's nothin' there you, know. [...] This psychiatry shit, apparently what you're feelin' is not what you're feelin,' and what you're not feelin' is your real agenda."

-Tony Soprano

My man is getting so close...

[Philip @lasym21]

Am I allowed to find things Melfi does instructive? Is that allowed?
