Your therapist is not your friend, and using therapy only as a place to vent is a waste of their time and your money.

Why? They're there to talk. Are you thinking of a psychiatrist?

Both therapists and a psychiatrists offer mental health care, therapists aren't just people to vent at (even if that is usually part of their job). Psychiatrists are medical doctors that can prescribe medication, however.

Exactly, this is what I mean. Yea.

This opinion is definitely not your friend.

Well, therapists can help a lot more than just venting! And if you vent you'll probably run into some feelings a therapist can help you untangle. You're right, better to try it than not.
