I guess they were friendly in the same way a boisterous German shepherd puppy is friendly: means well, but not a good playmate for my tiny arthritic senior dog.
(He’s snoring in my clean laundry and it’s adorable.)
I’m a systems librarian in an academic library. I moved over the Lemmy after Rexxit 2023. I’ve had an account on sdf.org since 2009 (under a different username), and so I chose this instance out of a sense of nostalgia. I do all sorts of fiber arts (knitting, cross stitch, sewing) and love dogs.

Plus, sometimes you don’t want to teach your therapist about stuff. Like, hypothetically my current therapist would know what an ace polyamorous furry kinkster is; I wouldn’t need to define any of those terms. This makes it much easier to talk about my friends and relationships without getting sidetracked.
Oh, and I’ve fired a physician that tried too hard to get me to talk to my mom, even after I pushed back. New physician was very understanding. I think queer folk are more likely to understand that relatives aren’t always family.
That sounds incredibly frustrating. I’m sorry and I hope you’re in a better therapy situation.
My current therapist is both autistic and nonbinary and they’re great for me. Sometimes when we talk about something rough they’ll check in that I have a good fidget, and they’ll ask me if I have aftercare lined up. (I usually promise to play phone games or pet my dog to wind down).
