My parents didn’t like me.
Why do you say that?
They ignored me most of the time.
Then again, they were busy people.
Busy how?
Dad was busy drinking.
Mom was busy being depressed.
Oh. Right.
How do you think that affected you?
Well, I got used to being alone.
And it left me scared of certain people.
What people?
Teachers. Coaches.
Cops. Bosses.
Doctors. Dentists.
And therapists.
Yes. How did you know?
They’re all authority figures.
People who can make
you feel unimportant.
And judged.
And rejected.
And powerless.
Like the kid you used to be.
Right.
Want to hear a secret?
Okay.
I have the same problem.
You?
Yes. It’s why I became a therapist.
Don’t tell anyone, okay?
Okay.
