Psychotherapy Mod
I was originally going to add social interactions to my mental illness traits that would help with their negative buffs but that didn’t work out too well and gave me no shortage of problems. It soon became apparent that if I didn’t stop the madness of trying to figure out the impossible soon, I’d need professional help! That’s when it dawned on me, my Sims are the ones who need professional help! So, I came up with this mod so that all Sims can get the psychotherapy they need to deal with their problems both big and small, long-term and short-term, illness related and situation related. Although I created this mod with my mental illness traits in mind, this mod does not require them. Any Sim can seek psychotherapy and receive one of five random buffs for completing it. Depending on which of the five buffs your Sim receives, there is a varying chance that their negative buffs will be removed regardless of what caused the buffs. The buffs will, of course, return eventually but that’s why psychiatrists are rich…. I mean, they’ll have to schedule another psychotherapy appointment. Each appointment costs §250 and your Sim will disappear after making the appointment call (rabbithole interaction as it’s called).
Click on the blue bar to see the buffs you may get with this mod or discover them in game by playing and skip the blue bar and just read all the important info below it.
How to Use:
Bring up your Sim’s cellphone menu and on the Household menu, you’ll see “Schedule Psychotherapy (§250)” somewhere down the menu depending on how many phone mods you have. (See the main post image for a preview of the phone interaction. After chatting on the phone, the Sim will then autonomously walk outside and go to their “rabbit hole” appointment and disappear for 1 up to 2 hours.
Current Version:
v2.01 – Added new French translation thanks to Kimikosoma.
I completely rewrote this mod to vastly improve it and be more like what I had originally intended it to be. The buff descriptions and names stayed the same but everything else, including how the mod functions, has changed.
If you have suggestions on how this mod could be improved, please let me know about it!
