I've come across more than a few cases where people seek magical help, but once they share their issue they drag on when it comes to paying. They keep saying they desperately need a spell or whatever, but they keep postponing payment, all the while bitching about their shit in more and more detail. From what I've been told, other occultists have had similar experiences.
These people do not seek magical help! They seek someone to unload their crap onto.
These people think that if they contact a practicing occultist that person is expected to waste their time on their shit for free. It's far cheaper than paying a psychologist, that's for sure. At least psychologists make a living by listening to people whine and bitch about their daily misery, regardless of how real or imaginary it may be.
