Does Dr. Mike Exist?

[vellavu]

Is Xander going to a place he doesn't want the others to know so that he makes up Dr. Mike, or is Dr. Mike just his imaginary friend?

He talks about him way too much. To quote Willow when she found Xandelia: it's not natural.

It isn't natural, just bad writing.

So yeah, he exists.

Maybe Dr. Mike is his lover. That would make sense why he talks about him all the time but just trying to keep the relationship concealed.

I found this fic about Xander's sessions with Dr. Mike.

We should have at least seen one session between Xander and Dr. Mike, preferably the first one.

I think he is real - Xander had anger issues, and he is the 100% human, with no powers, of the gang, so for him to grow out of it nothing more natural that him looking for professional counseling. Makes total sense. The last issue wouldn't be possible if Xander hadn't been in treatment.
