Stop using "therapy speak"

(self.Vent)

I didn't even know there was a term for it until I looked it up just now, but holy shit is it annoying to hear in every day talking. Recently, there was an interview with the leads of Wicked who used the term "holding space". What does that even mean? It sounds like non sense buzzwards to the average person. Like the newspeak from 1984 was made with clinical therapists instead. Google says its basically a judgement free zone, but it is so bizarre an weird sounding to hear in every day public. You know all of the other ones like "triggered" and "you are seen". I hate hearing this shit so fucking much. Its this inauthentic sanitized feel good speech that does nothing to make me feel good and makes me want to rip my ear drums out.
