Why It’s Okay to Refuse Therapy
Medical professionals of all kinds are well known for abusing every marginalized group known to humanity, and therapists are no exception.

It's okay to refuse therapy. It's okay to be hostile towards medical personnel, especially when they have abused you. It's okay to talk about your horrible experiences with therapy.
