Alec Benjamin said on Twitter/X that he has been struggling with his mental health and that addressing those struggles in this song really helped him.
[Verse 1]
He said
"Take a seat over there, on the chair by the couch
Tell me what you've been thinking about
There's nothing you can say that's out of bounds
You can trust me, swear I'm here for you now"
I've heard it all before, he took out his pen
But as he wrote down each, each thing that I said
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, well, the mood just changed
He started acting strange
This was our next exchange
[Chorus]
He said
"I'll tell you what, I'm sorry, but I don't think I can be
Of any help, think I need help now," is what he said to me
Might even need it more than me now, oh, the irony
I'm so messed up, I sent my therapist to therapy
"I tell you what, I'm sorry, but I thought I'd never see
A case as bad as yours, don't think I have a remedy," mm
Think he needs help now, oh, the irony
I'm so messed up, I sent my therapist to therapy
[Verse 2]
So I got up from the chair where I sat by the couch
He said to me, "Could you sit back down?"
And I could see as I turned around
Really needed someone he could talk to now, said
"Thought that I'd seen it all, turns out I was wrong
Wish I could help you out, you'll have to be strong"
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, well, the mood just changed
He started acting strange
This was our next exchange
[Chorus]
He said
"I'll tell you what, I'm sorry, but I don't think I can be
Of any help, think I need help now," is what he said to me
Might even need it more than me now, oh, the irony
I'm so messed up, I sent my therapist to therapy
"I tell you what, I'm sorry, but I thought I'd never see
A case as bad as yours, don't think I have a remedy," mm
Think he needs help now, oh, the irony
I'm so messed up, I sent my therapist to therapy
[Post-Chorus]
I'm so messed up, I'm so messed up, I'm so messed up now
I'm so messed up, I'm so messed up, I'm so messed up now
I'm so messed up, can't you see?
I'm so messed up, I sent my therapist to therapy
[Verse 3]
I went out yesterday to get food from the store
And ran into the man from before
Right by the exit door
He stopped me to talk
Said that he went to go and look for some help
A funny thing happened and I said, "Do tell"
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, and the story is, mm
My doctor found a doctor and his doctor told him
[Chorus]
"I'll tell you what, I'm sorry, but I don't think I can be
Of any help, think I need help now," is what he said to me
Might even need it more than me now, oh, the irony
I'm so messed up, I sent my therapist to therapy
"I tell you what, I'm sorry, but I thought I'd never see
A case as bad as yours, don't think I have a remedy," mm
Think he needs help now, oh, the irony
I'm so messed up, I sent my therapist to therapy

I Sent My Therapist To Therapy was produced by Jordi Peleg.
Alec Benjamin released I Sent My Therapist To Therapy on Fri Dec 08 2023.
Releasing this song is the ultimate form of therapy. It combines the two most therapeutic things in my life into one; music and therapy itself. I hope listening to this song provides the same level of catharsis for anyone struggling with their mental health as writing it did for me.
