did anyone else go to therapy as a child/young teen and when their therapist asked about how their day went or how this emotion made them feel on a one to ten scale, answered with decimal numbers?
"One to ten, how uncomfortable does that make you?"
"Like a seven...point eight..."
"7.8? (laughs) alright well that's very specific-"
"No no wait...like seven point seventy four"
“Okay-”
“Maybe 7.75”
#I'm sure she thought I was joking. I was not#I wanted that shit to be ACCURATE#yes 7 vs 7.8 vs 7.74 are DIFFERENT#still do that whenever possible#I hate rounding because these are my feelings we're talking about and saying my day was about an eight is#INNACCURATE#Because it can't be an 8 day if my daily lunch did not have blueberries.#If we didn't have any blueberries and it had to be replaced with strawberries that's a -.09 deduction#neurospicy#Loved making my therapist laugh#Ah yes I am going to get a good grade in therapy. Which is both a normal thing to want and a possible goal to achieve#neurodiversity#neurodivergent#undiagnosed but something ain't right#autism coded#Decimals#therapy#child therapy#Tumblr meme
