Redditor has an r-slur temper tantrum during the rapy session and brings her therapist to tears after accusing her of voting for trump

>I said, ' I understand this is personal and possibly inappropriate, but I need to know if you voted for trump. I don't want to receive life advice, be vulnerable, and be treated by someone with such a drastically different set of morals and values than I have.' She said it shouldn't matter who she voted for. I said, in this case, for me, it does. She said she would not tell me who she voted for, but that she's conflicted by many of the issues. I asked what she's conflicted about. She said she's conflicted about Black Lives Matter movement because it was 'violent' and she said she's conflicted about social programs because she doesn't want people taking advantage of them… (uh… you're against social programs and you're a THERAPIST?) I told her that pretty much answers my question, and I'm thankful for our time, but I'm sorry, I don't think I can continue working with you. She got pretty angry. Said she was disappointed and teared up a bit. I feel like kind of a peepee, but I can't justify paying money for treatment from someone I fundamentally disagree with about what being a good person means. … I don't know, am I overreacting?

Honestly, it sounds like you just needed to feel comfortable with who you're getting advice from, and that's totally fair. If her views made you uncomfortable and you felt like it would impact your progress, it's okay to move on. Maybe she could've been more understanding, but you're allowed to choose what's best for you.

I wonder if they'll repost this the next time someone refuses spinal surgery because their surgeon didn't pass a political litmus test.

Can I choose that I only ever want white or asian male doctors, surgeons, pilots, ATCs? :marseythinkorino: I just want to feel comfortable :marseyshrug:

That's the point of the subreddit, goofball. Along with /r/relationship_advice etc.

Sadly they wouldn't let @ResneedingSyndrome post too ask whether white extinction is long overdue.

spamming pointless questions like does 1+1 = 2? is the same waste of time, of course white extinction is long overdue.

The real issue here is that she was seeing a therapist in the first place.
