The I like being the only one that is allowed to talk and that's why I do stand up.

Yeah, I had a first exploratory session with a really bad therapist last weekend and she just like got right and did not try to get to know me at all and was like what would you say is your main issue?

And I was like, um, let's fix this in one hour.

I do it a little bit.

We got 48 minutes, let's do this.

Okay, here we go, I'm watching the clock.

Truly, yes, got right down to business.

And I was like, I don't know, I guess I feel like I always need to be in control.

And she's like, is that what you do comedy?

And I was like, I don't, I guess so. I don't know. And she was like I don't I guess so I don't know and she was like all right in time

does comedy help people feel like they're in control I think of it is a pretty

chaotic life choice where you really don't have any control over what

therapy.

Right, that's why I'm in therapy too, but I don't think of this career option

as like a really like, oh, I've got a handle on things.

You don't, you're not in charge of job opportunities or if you get

them or if you all over work again you're not everything's outside of your

control right? Three minutes every Tuesday night you're in complete control

which sometimes feels like enough to spill over into your other reckless hurricane of a life.

Yeah, I don't, if you're listening and you're thinking about your life's out of control or you're thinking about starting stand up I would encourage you to maybe just go to therapy

Do that if you feel like your life's in control if you think about doing stand-up. This is good advice.

Yes. You don't need that type of attention. You need therapy.
