Danny to Danielle

It started out as a lark, my girlfriend told me I was too aggressive and needed therapy. I never figured it would turn me into the most wondrous version of myself.

One day I flew off the handle about something minor, the house needed vacuuming, and Sara said, “That’s IT! You go to the doctor I told you about or its over!”

Well not wanting it to be over I agreed and Sara made the appointment.

Two weeks later Sara and I met at Dr. Tina Johnson’s office.

“Come in Danny, Sara, sit down.” She motioned us to the 2 lounge chairs and began to fill us in on the therapy.

“I use a combination of relaxants and hypnotherapy to minimize the aggressive tendencies then after a few weeks we work on the basic psychological make up of the patient. It is unorthodox and radical but I have had GREAT success in helping men find that softer edge.”

“How often do I come in, I am unemployed at the moment and can’t afford a lot of expensive drugs and therapy.” I said with a bit of anger in my voice. I was pissed that Sara even thought this was needed.

“Oh don’t worry Danny,” Tina said, “Sara and I have it all worked out. Now it’s every few days at first then every week, in between each session you will have tasks to complete and Sara and I will meet to discuss them.”

I was thinking, “this is getting weirder by the minute,” but what the hell, I needed Sara.

“Now let’s get started, here take these pills and relax and listen to the music in these headphones, also put on these glasses they will help relax you and get you started quickly.”

Sara and Tina left the room and I did as told, I put the headset on, the glasses and downed the 2 pink pills. In seconds it seemed the world disappeared among flashing lights and a soft female voice telling me that all was all right and to relax. Next thing I knew I awoke to Tina and Sara in the room smiling at me and I felt wonderful and at peace. Tina handed me a list and told me to do all on it before our next session tomorrow, which I would be at alone.
