Hearing both lefties and right wingers being so obsessed with therapy makes me worried.

@ehhh
I don't care, I don't go to any.

But the phrase "you should go to a therapy" should not exist outside of real trauma. And I hear it as a reaction to absolutely anything.

I even heard women say, that they don't take guys who aren't in therapy seriously.

@LukeAlmighty "everyone i don't like needs to go to therapy"?

@LukeAlmighty @ehhh I've heard women say that they won't date guys who aren't in therapy. It's kind of becoming dangerous at this point, depression and anxiety are fads and it's cool to be sad.

@beardalaxy @LukeAlmighty i've actually never heard of women saying that

but then again i don't really ineract with women

@beardalaxy @ehhh
I repeated this already, but I have to, because of the significance of that point.

An experienced "expert" said, that I will be happy if I manage to finish the school for "special kids".

If my parents took his advice just a bit more seriously, my life could have been completelly fucked.

@LukeAlmighty
nobody ive known has told me that therapist's have helped them whatsoever
knew someone that attempted suicide BECAUSE of their therapist
therapists are are not people and I do not like them :yui_excited:

hearing it from people just seems like "come back once someone has gaslit you out of your own beliefs" rather than having a discussion like adults :thinkinghrr:

@kilostere
Well, I had seen 2 therapists in my life...

Don't worry, they didn't help me either :D (and one almost ruined my life)

@LukeAlmighty
people make the mistake of thinking authorities or professionals are some kind of glowing-brain superior people or something, and that you can blindly follow them because 'they know best' of course

in reality theyre just people, like anyone else, but with a shiny title
:tanya_sigh:

> in reality theyre just people, like anyone else, but with a shiny title

More importantly, you are a 30 minutes in their boring tuesday.
You mean nothing, so they have no reason to even try actually helping you.

If I cannot be arsed to reinstall a neighbour's PC, why would I expect another rando to take time to examine my brain properly?

@LukeAlmighty @kilostere god ? Wtf men why not santa Klaus ?

Grow up and be brave enought to face the doom in your past

@kilostere @LukeAlmighty They are, indeed, like anyone else. As in, they are average people. They aren't smarter than the average, or special in any way. They are almost always more fucked up than their clients. Same goes with social workers.
