My mom wants everyone in my family to see a therapists because well...I have a fucked up family so she assumes this will help. I don't actually need one and shes just overreacting because i got arrested (for weed) but she's going through a tough time so might as well go to make her happy
What are some ways to troll/fuck with the therapist?
Also, if I keep talking about anxiety or whatever and whine like a bitch is it possible I could get a Xanax script? Or can they not prescribe medication?

Don't troll the therapist. They are there to help people. If you feel you must troll then derail someone's post on the internet and let the therapists help people who need it and are suicidal or suffering from PTSD, sexual abuse, substance abuse or what ever it is that they might have.
Being given a prescription depends on which country you are in. In Australia only a psychiatrist can prescribe it (or a GP or neurologist etc). A psychologist can not prescribe drugs here. However, I remember hearing about other countries where a psychologist can give a prescription for certain drugs although I bet the selection would be small.
If you talk about anxiety then the psychologist might get you to do some cognitive behavioral therapy. However, if you are talking to someone who is in a position to give you a prescription for drugs to treat anxiety then there is a good chance that you would be given something with a low potential for abuse first, such as an anti depressant. Those things are horrible though.
You might be able to get a benzo prescription from a doctor if you can convince him that you need something that's more like an abortive drug as opposed to a preventative drug. However, I think you'd be given something like valium first rather than Xanax.

God you are such a worthless piece of shit. I'm thankful your mom is paying for your therapy now so the taxpayers may not end up having to.

Jesus. It's not like I'm going to go in there and make fun of people with real psychological problems. That's fucked.
And who said my mom is paying for it? She wants me to go, so I will go, to make her happy.

I know I don't need one, I'm just doing this to make my mom happy!
And I'm not going to troll him about any real life psychological problems. I would never make fun of that.
Just shit like "I think I'm addicted to water".

being addicted to water is awesome, but why make your mom happy by going seeing someone that it wont really make her happy for you to see, you could eventually just spend more time with your mah, show her your love and respect : ) I find it kinda simple my friend.

I have been I ran a fucking marathon for her! It's mostly my family who makes her stressed and all that bull sheet.
I do whatever I can to make her happy and hangout with her as much as possible. And one of those is this sooo I'll do it for her.
Even though there is no Way I'll take him seriously, but she doesn't have to know that shell just be happy that I went.

It really depends, seeing a therapist. It depends on who they are and how they respond. It's not always the case where you can know everything about your own situation, if there's a disorder where perception is augmented.
Never been to a therapist but I really want to, just to get a second overall opinion from someone with experience studying this kind of thing on a detailed level. Though stress is pushing my symptoms of schizophrenia and depersonalization and bipolarity to worsen, I know it's manageable when my mood and stress levels are under control.
I've been pretty good the entire time, even at it's peak. Depression and dissociative tendencies and existential confusion was tough to get through, but doing kungfu for 8 years of my life really helped (my class was not based only on physical aspects, we learned a lot about Buddhist thinking and mindframes which helped me deal with a perceptual clutter). I've developed defense mechanisms (unknowingly, but they did develop, under the influence of what I was doing), and like Fisherman said, music can be therapy. But because my depression and depersonalization mixed in such a way, I developed synesthesia, and being able to depersonalize with a positive undertone, instead of a negative one (panic attacks/bad trip type feelings, though I hadn't even smoked weed by the time it got pretty bad).
lmfao, a short attention span is also a side effect of my self therapy. I totally didn't realize the rant I was making. I don't really care though, that's good for me. My autistic-like anti social tendencies are pretty well gone aside from anxiety issues and being unable to attach words with shapes I see in my head (I see things by aesthetic connection, shapes interacting with other shapes, language is not defined by thinking about it, only by metaphors seen in visuals).
tl;dr: Seeing a therapist can give you a more clear idea of yourself in the present but in the end it's your own route to change and psychological growth that matters. Do take advice though.

to hell with psychiatrists and therapists!
They can sit on their own planet some day junking themselves alone searching for nothing but random happiness xD
We dont need em as such, only as normal family.
Plus I think their buildings are boring.

See, that term pedo gets thrown around a lot.
Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.
