It's pretty bog-standard inpatient mental health treatment. Distract the patient until they run out of steam.
While it would normally be preferred to do that at an actual facility, things get slippery when the person in question is a mental health professional. They know how to work the system.
I can take a few days of pain if at the end it means someone sees light at the end of the tunnel.
Your actions put you in the incredibly good and caring friend camp, but I suspect what CPT is hinting at is it also puts you in the friend-zoned wuss camp.
Nothing so chauvinistic. I've been the friend who has to hold all the others together before and it sucks.

Wuss! While you can take being friend-zoned in stride, we're still hardwired to take care of females in distress and far too many take advantage of it.

I'll agree with that.
FWIW was actually one of the rare times I can say I felt a sense of genuine satisfaction when it was over. Usually I just feel like I was forced to be someone's ennui dump.

I agree on that too, and this person has been guilty of that in the past. Likewise, I can be an easy mark in that department.
However was clear this reached the threshold of "okay... this time it isn't a game".
1500 MILES THROUGH DEATH VALLEY IN AUGUST, PREFERABLY IN TERRIBLE, GARBAGE CARS.
Here's what makes this difficult for me - I've been offered a 1969 Cougar for free. The engine might work. The transmission might work. It has been thoroughly wrecked at all four corners and the body is a mess.
It could probably be made road worthy for about $1000. Then it would be off to do about 5500 miles in one week in the desert in August with no AC. This sounds like fun to me.

Got it running yesterday. It's been parked for 38 years. I rebuilt the carb and threw on a new cap, rotor, wires, and plugs and it fired right up. I'll see if I can get a title for it. If so, I'll drag it home to my garage, where I have light.

And yes, she'd test drive it first, only looking for opinions like the Veloster having crummy build quality. Stuff you don't necessarily find out on a test drive but you know because cars give you a stiffie and shit.

The turbo makes it peppy but means a higher potential for long-term headaches. They had a big timing chain issue initially, but Nissan issued a service recall to fix that.
Some people hate the CVT, drive it and see how you feel about it, they're polarizing. I don't mind them, and they generally go against everything I stand for with cars.
When you've got a Tesla with the 'Summon' command, a Home link garage door, an Amazon Echo speaker and can do programming, of course you're going to hack them together to get the car out of the garage by voice control.
Even though I've been off the buying market for almost a year, I still give Volvo and Subaru wagons (of any age) the eye and consider asking them on a date.

I've always owned sedans, and maybe that's why I was taken with the Giulia.
It's the safe... practical choice..... truth be told, i'm just trying very hard to convince myself that i don't want this:
Almost every review of this car that i've seen, has said that it just puts a smile on the driver's face. And just look at it! It's a mini Ferrari with a price tag to match! I might be getting ahead of myself here, but this car seems to evoke the same emotions in me as a '67-ish Mustang or a '70s VW Beetle.
Cheers

It's a great weekend car; very agile and quick, especially for the given power rating. It feels every bit like a mini-Ferrari. Awfully uncomfortable for any extended period of time, though.
