Session 2: The Agony of the Sofa

Where the therapist asks the questions, but the client does all the talking.

You: "So, doc, I've been feeling really down about my favorite video game character getting defeated in the final boss battle... again."

Therapist: "That's interesting. Can you tell me more about this character?"

You: "Well, they're just so... so... PERFECT! I mean, I've spent 20 hours trying to beat them, and I just can't seem to get it together."

Therapist: "I see. And do you think this character's perfection might be a reflection of your own feelings about your own life?"

You: "NO, NO, NO! It's just a game, doc! I mean, I've beaten that game 12 times already, and I'm still not satisfied."
