deanlearnstoliveMe again, and its another appreciation post for my best friend Alex.
Any time I mention therapy to my friends, I get mixed responses - L usually says "that's good" or "I hope that's helping" because he's great like that. M doesn't say anything usually. E is usually shyly supportive and T is more outwardly supportive. V has good things to say too, and C is supportive as well. Alex, however, is the fucking best of the bunch.
They ask me questions about it. "How was therapy today?", "Any news on that diagnosis?", "Good on you for getting back into therapy, man."
They're just awesome. I love and appreciate Alex so dearly. I messaged them after yesterday's session and told them that I'm looking into a diagnosis regarding my hallucinations, and I was subconsciously expecting the same response as I get from most of my other friends: "Oh, sounds good?" But no. Alex cheered for me, asked what happens next, asked what this means for me, asked how I felt. I don't expect that kind of response from the rest of my friends because I'm not as close with them - this isn't a dig at L, E, T, V, or C - but it's so refreshing to have a friend that shows how much they care.
Love ya Alex.
