      There are terms I’ve had psych professionals use with me in a clinical context that lots of people use in casual conversation in ways that range from counterproductive to abusive.

      Also people who are insistent that everybody needs to have a therapist their whole life, including you, aren’t necessarily respectful of what you’ve been through or what treatment you have sought.

      I think there are a lot of power trippy therapists out there and IME non credentialed people who like using those terms are not ppl it’s a good idea for me to date.

      Also I think astrology is just dumb and completely uninteresting. Now, if someone wanted to ask my favorite alchemical process, that’s different (it’s rubedo, obviously).
