Therapist Can't Handle Trauma

>be me >fall for the therapy meme >day 1, 20 minutes in >tell the shrink about my shitted life >tell her about my brother who shot himself, and about how i discovered his body >she cuts me off mid sentence saying "please..that's, how my husband died" >see her choke up and get misty eyed before excusing herself >she comes back in and says she doesn't think she can proceed with me as a client >wellfuckmetheniguess.jpg Sheesh, what do they pay these dumb holes for if they can't even handle a standard sob story?

Pepe the Frog, wearing headphones and smoking, recounts an extremely traumatic story to a therapist, only to discover that the therapist has experienced a similar tragedy and cannot continue the session. The joke is the absurd reversal: the client’s “standard sob story” is so intense that it overwhelms the professional, mocking insensitive greentext storytelling and therapy memes.
