Once I said to my therapist "I'm sure you hear this kind of thing all the time", and she said "No, this is like top 5".

I was describing my insane in-laws for the record.
The first time I saw a psychiatrist, she asked if she could hug me.
It was cool with me, so I accepted. She seemed truly moved, and although I can hypothesize as to why, but I don't think I'll ever actually know.
It does make me think I should write a book sometime.
