I work for a not for my profit organization that helps people with mental illness. This same company offers really expensive insurance plans through Tufts with extermely high co pays. Therefore, when I go to a therapist, it costs me $25 for 45 minutes and the entire time I'm complaning about my job. (And friends who think it's okay to date my ex girlfriends).
I have also joined an 8 week support group for women who hate their jobs so each week I'll spend an additional $25 to listen to other women bitch about how much they hate their jobs. I'll try it out but if I wanted to do this for free, I could probably just join a book club or something that straight women like to do. And speaking of that, lesbian women never join straight clubs. They always have to join gay clubs. Once I had a friend tell me she wanted to join a bowling league (gay one) and a pool league (gay one). And I digress...I'll save that for my $25 session.
Then I'll go to my other therapist which my insurance doesn't cover and pay $50 for 30 minutes explaining why I need to take drugs just so I can go into work and not cry. Then I'll spend $50 a month for those drugs because my tufts insurance thinks these said drugs are Grey Goose of medicine.
So, basically I spend about $400-$500 a month to take care of my mental issues. Therefore, I need to keep the job that is making me mental just so I can afford to survive on a job that is making me mental.
