More From Terry Pratchett

In the nineteenth year and the eleventh month speak your tattered kaddish for all suicides: praise to life though it crumbled in like a tunnel on ones we knew and loved praise to life though its windows blew shut on the breathing-room of ones we knew and loved praise to life though ones we knew and loved loved it badly, too well, and not enough praise to life though it tightened like a knot on the hearts of ones we thought we knew loved us praise to life giving room and reason to ones we knew and loved who felt unpraisable. praise to them, how they loved it, when they could.

I just want to hear the true voices of women self-expressing - smart ones, stupid ones, ugly ones, beautiful ones, good ones, bad ones, fat ones, thin ones, all of it - until the profound silence that has resounded throughout history is filled with a healthy chorus coming from our side of the aisle.

One strand of psychotherapy is certainly to help relieve suffering, which is a genuine medical concern. if someone is bleeding, you want to stop the bleeding. another medical aspect is the treatment of chronic complaints that are disabling in some way. and many of our troubles are chronic. life is chronic. so there is a reasonable, sensible, medical side to psychotherapy.
Suffering Want Bleeding
I hate the waiting room. because it's called the waiting room, there's no chance of not waiting. it's built, designed, and intended for waiting. why would they take you right away when they've got this room all set up?

Insecurity breeds treachery: if you are kind to people who hate themselves, they will hate you as well.

You can't hate the roots of a tree and not hate the tree.

And i, who timidly hate life, fear death with fascination. i fear this nothingness that could be something else, and i fear it as nothing and as something else simultaneously, as if gross horror and non-existence could coincide there, as if my coffin could entrap the eternal breathing of a bodily soul, as if immortality could be tormented by confinement. the idea of hell, which only a satanic soul could have invented seems to me to have derived from this sort of confusion - a mixture of two different fears that contradict and contaminate each other.
