Additional Comments: Ryan's classic new-to-therapy behavior, i.e. freaking out and storming out at every session totally in keeping with his violent upbringing. Here's what doesn't fit: no therapist worth her degree would deal with it without addressing his anger and bullying issues. Even Tony Soprano's lame-ass therapist would have addressed this rage-a-holic crap.

Exactly why I tune out whenever he's on!  I've had enough of the Lavery family dysfunction and the yelling/violence that goes along with it.  Ryan is worse than Jonathan was, imo.  It's been addressed in other storylines and it's just getting FREAKING OLD!!!!!!!  Ryan is an irritating character enough when you don't throw all that childhood abuse stuff in.  His temper tantrums are a turn-off but I guess TPTB think viewers actually enjoy it.  Well, this one DOESN'T.  They think that Ryan (or Cameron Mathison) is the second coming or something and they LOVE to stuff him down our throats as much as possible.  Personally, I wish they'd just skip the therapy, give him some poisoned pancakes and show him the DOOR!

He's not happy unless he's yelling at someone or blaming someone else for his idiot behavior.
