Summary:

Bruce is pretty sure a therapist wouldn’t help his client synthesise the main compounds in chocolate at three in the morning. Just like he’s pretty sure exposure therapy does not mean trolling cosmology conferences and hacking SHIELD’s files about wormholes. And when they say pets help with anxiety, they don’t mean pet Hulks. But hey, he did say he wasn’t a therapist, didn’t he?

Or, in which Bruce Banner knows about breathing exercises for panic attacks and grounding techniques for flashbacks, but as far as therapy goes, that’s pretty much it. But if Tony refuses to get an actual therapist, he supposes they can make do with what they have.

 

( My thoughts: )
