The Depression Thing

> Careful with that advice. [...] Whatever you do to counter your depression, have a trustworthy, knowledgeable aid at your side: a therapist.

Quoting the UiA, "One [1988] study indicates that 70% of therapists had seen for treatment at least one patient who had had sex with a previous therapist. Of the latter, 96% were male." [1]

I guess the moral of my comment is - be careful giving advice (period)

I'm not sure how this page is meant to work but I can't find the study this claim came from? It's linking to a book?

The source is a training book on how to sue psychiatrists, I can't find the study anywhere. Even if it does exist, it's saying that a lot of therapists have seen a client who had sex with a therapist. If someone wanted to have sex with a therapist, they would visit a lot of therapists.

This explores the topic in a more meaningful way, and links sources. https://kspope.com/sexiss/research5.php#a8studies

I assumed the study is referenced in the book (and that the quote is from the book) -- but honestly I have no idea
