[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How has nobody mentioned the "life coach" that Sima Auntie sent some of them to?  She was a THERAPIST.   Just say the word.  THERAPIST.   There should be no shame, but I got the sense that "life coach" is more acceptable in Indian culture.  [/quote]

I get the sense that you take reality TV way too seriously. Anything else you gleaned from Indian culture from a TV show?  I've learned a lot about White Americans from TV shows too.  The Bravo channel is my gateway into American culture. Oh and the Jerry Springer show and Maury.  I mean those shows were amazing and I've learned so much about American culture.

I've also learned that Americans LOVE therapists and that it's common to begin sending their children to them at an early age.  I have many friends from all over the world and it seems no other country loves therapists as much as Americans.  They are available and around in other countries but here it seems like everyone has their therapy appointments.  It's like a dental appointment for the brain.  I like it.  It just hasn't caught on around the world yet.

Strange though how despite such widespread use of therapists there is still so much mental illness in this country that everyone says is ignored. I mean so many mentally ill white men and school students shooting up people with guns.  Such a paradox how mental illness is ignored yet therapy is so common.
