The Psychoanalysis

The door opens, my psychologist is waiting for me to sit down. I greet her with a smile. As I sit down my problems come fast and vividly as a flashback, making it easier for me to express my depression to her.

I am sick totally overwhelmed with society, I need some relief, maybe thats why I have psychological help. 

I start talking about how I had to lie to my friends about my clothes. I told them they were designer's clothes when they really weren't, and now they accept me because they think I wear fashionable clothing.

She stays silent for a moment and then answers: "If you think that things naturally enslaved are free or that things not your own are your own, you will be thwarted,miserable and upset, and will blame both god and men"(1).

It was quite wise what she said. Then I thought, "she is totally right, I am suffering for being something I am not, why should I keep on with this?"

I continued with my problems, telling her about how the people I hang out with are always telling me what to do and I have to change for them.  I told her that in my school there are other people that are much fun, but they are total losers.

She paused, sighed and then answered: " At each thing that happens to you, remember to turn to yourself and ask what capacity  you have for dealing with it. If hardship comes to you will find endurance. If it is abuse, you will find patience. And if you become used to this you will not become carried away my appearances"(10).

When I looked at the time, my session was over. I turned to the door and thought: "I have a lot to think about..." 

Just in case none of this is real, any similarities with reality are just coincidence.
