United States:  Reddit user posed the question to the users of the site, “What is one thing a therapist has said to you that you will never forget?”

You received so many interesting, thrilling, and inspiring stories and comments from people which prove how powerful are therapists on their patients.

So, here are some of the most unforgettable things therapists have said to folks:

It stuck with me because I often felt the need to immediately fix or rationalize my emotions instead of just sitting with them. That statement made me realize it’s okay not to have everything without clear expectations and it was freeing to understand that I didn’t need to solve everything at once.

For me, it was a time I was talking about how self-conscious, and I was when dating and what the other person would like you, that you don’t
