People used to go to church and receive guidance from clergymen or trusted members of the community. Now no one goes to church and no one has a community so they pay a israelite $60/hr to listen to them.
Not all therapists are psychiatrists, but yeah it's an insurance industry grift at the very least.
Write what you know. This is what writers think a normal life is.

Why is media shilling therapy so much nowadays?
trying to normalize it, the average person should not be so depressed and mentally ill that they need pills and therapy yet here we are so ((they)) are trying to paint it as “a good thing” and “healthy”
I had for 2 years and then quit because it was getting expensive and I was bored af at that point to attend it. I don't think it did anything. I know a little better why I jerk off to certain things now but I still do.
>personality disorder
Much like "unconscious bias" this straight up seems insane to me that its a legit diagnosis. Its basically like, "you dont even know how fricked you are!"
yep its a bummer. looking back at how i behaved in therapy with her for two years is pretty embarassing. i thought i understood my behaviour but she saw straight through it and just let me continue acting like a fool.
Similar story. Spent a bunch of time and money to talk to some jackass and never felt better.
Learned later down the road Im HF for ADHD and it made me anxious and I just needed a low dose of Adderall and suddenly so much of my bullshit went away.
I know therapists and psychiatrists are different professions, but come the frick 2 years of opening up and you dont even form a suspicion or inkling as a professional?
Frick outta here.
Therapy is a scam.
i dunno if i would say its a scam. i talked to another psychologist and it was actually pretty helpful. but the way we talked to eachother was completely different than how i talked to my previous psychologist.

i went for two years and had literally zero progress and was getting incredibly frustrated as to why.
later found out i have a personality disorder that makes therapy very hard and they just never bothered telling me about it.
Oh also during my last session because I already told her since she also raised the prices, and I was fired recently from my job I said I woulnd't be able to afford at this point. And I also told her recently that I had pictures of my ex and also use AI porn shit and other degenerate stuff like that and post online. So she also told me since it was illegal and immoral or something I should stop that behaviour before coming back. It was the most Tony Soprano moment of my life.
Because all the nepobabbys who make up 90% of movie/tv directors, writers, actors were raised by school&nannies and sent to therapy when they'd inevitably get fricked up due to lack of parental upbringing.
They want you to be just as compromised as they are. Youd have to be the dumbest motherfricker alive to think your therapist isnt recording all your sessions.
I saw a Harvard grad psychologist and after two appointments I felt it was a waste because she just wanted to discuss movies. Then months later I saw her in my theater for Inception. She waved, and I waved, then about a half hour in she walked out of the movie and didn’t come back.
>harvard grad
Shes either a soulless dumb rich kid who only cares about getting good grades
Ivy league grads are smug out of touch neoliberal buttholes who peaked in college maturity wise
Therapy is both over and underrated. If you're a normie with only standard normie problems like workplace stress, it's over-shilled and there are other ways you could better improve your life, but if you have a serious mental illness it can be genuinely helpful and you would do better to get therapy and ignore mongs telling you to just "get over it"
that's real fricking psychotic to think a professional who sees thousands of people in a span of two months would recognize you after meeting her twice for a maximum of 30 minutes. and to randomly wave to a stranger is the icing on a cake lmao

sure, you got me with her waving first. and i'll admit that i thought it was only two months between each situation. doesn't change the fact she gets rent for free
You're half right. Therapists are useful for normies with the mindspan of a goldfish. The ones who felt suicidal for not being able to drink shitty expensive coffee during the coof lockdowns.
This. Therapy is still only as useful as you let it be, and there are a LOT of useless therapists, so finding the "right" one is half the battle. But they're not there to fix your problems - they're there to help you help yourself fix your problems.
I went to AA and eventually ended up staying with my fellows, made new friends, and got my life together, but that's just for me. Therapy didn't do fricking shit for me either when I was a kid.
Most therapists suck. It took me 7 years to find a good therapist.
A good way to "test" if a therapist is doing anything remotely good for you is if, after 3 sessions, you haven't gleaned anything useful from them, it's a fricking scam. It is unfortunately easy for therapists to just throw textbook bullshit at you that won't help you at all, and trying to tell the difference as someone who just needs help is very difficult. But if you aren't walking away with even a nugget of something useful, find another.

I had a shrink who literally said nothing. I would go in and talk at him and he would listen and offer nothing in response.
Also I just go to church now. Karma keeps me doing it and all the nice people. Once we are dead we are dead, but the fellowship and good morality is what "God" is to me. I'm the only honky in a black Baptist church for 8 years. They sorta got used to me.
if you have a serious mental illness the odds of therapy actually helping you are very slim. Schizoids are rarely ever "cured." Therapy is best used by morons who have zero self-introspection and literally need someone to ask them how they feel about certain things. >I hit my wife last night! >And did it make you happy? >No! >And did your wife feel happy? >...probably not...
I don't see why that is so bad. Obviously someone who is in mental health work would probably lean left. Also would you really want to talk about your fetishes, latent suicidality and possible transgenderism to a pro or your priest?
>Also would you really want to talk about your fetishes, latent suicidality and possible transgenderism
Why would I talk about something I don't have? Bizarre projection.
The priest. For one, he’s bound by religion never to tell on me, which is a bigger deal than it just being illegal. Secondly, because he doesn’t want to discuss it with me, you would just get it off your chest in a complete vacuum of judgement. I don’t need some feminist b***h who’s probably fricked up herself to explain my decisions to me, I just need to state them and move on.
Priests are also bound by religion to not molest and rape kids but they do it anyway.
I fricking hate christcucks so much. You homosexuals put these hypocritical shits on a pedestal just like the left puts trannies on one.
I hope for nothing more than a massive world war between israelites, trannies and troony worshippers, christcucks, and mudslimes that results in the death of every last one of them. Only then can we have peace once the four largest factions intent on subjugating everyone else to their make believe are no more.
It's really strange how more comparisons aren't made with catholics and confession, especially with how supposedly secular therapy is. Something to learn about the nature of religion there.
Confession is for people who already understand that they did something wrong and want to at the very least spiritually own up to it. Therapy is for people who want to be told they can do no wrong, or at the very least the wrong can always be blamed on outside factors and you can get agency-destroying validation pills for that if you pay the right price.
>if you pay the right price
Yeah it's not like the catholic church ever sold indulgences or passes around a plate asking for money when you're sitting in their ornate palatial temple every Sunday. It's all a racket anon
>Therapy is for people who want to be told they can do no wrong, or at the very least the wrong can always be blamed on outside factors and you can get agency-destroying validation pills for that if you pay the right price.
yes, couldnt have said it better.
for normalgays therapy is about validation and relinquishing control. For them it is liberating to tell themselves "I act this way because I have anxiety, doctor said so, I cant control the way I act. I need these pills to control it. If I still act out while on pills well, it only proves my anxiety is that strong!
Having a mental issue is a way to absolve you of resposibility
Confession is free and brief, and the priests themselves don't actually tell you what to think about your actions they just serve as a stand-in for Christ. It's really nothing like therapy.
Twitter freaks and breadtuber simps are the modern day inquisitors/confessor >you did a heckin racism CONFESS >you did a plagiarism CONFESS >you misgendered for CONFESS
And then you have the self flagerators etc etc it's fricking wild
The one time I talked to a psych I brought up how Jung more or less said this and the psych seemed offended. Later he asked me if I had heard the bus metaphor, I hadn't, but I made a guess as to what it was, but he said "no that's not it" then proceeded to recite the elementary school tier shit that I had just guessed.
I would unironically rather go to a priest.
>fierce advocate for trans kids >fiercely anti-white >immediately started 2 wars upon taking office >won’t stop printing money, fricking food is 3x the price it was 2 years ago

My dad did bang his patient and eventually married her ( my stepmother). Other female patients were obsessed with him and called him daily so yeah it can happen.
It's not a plot device when you have multiple episodes revolving around it. It's a plot. Him showcasing his suicidal thoughts is a plot device to show that the character isn't well.
>invalidates your hack fake-medicine career >outperforms pharmaceuticals >just the mere act of growing it and providing it tangiblly, noticibly increases the net positivity on earth
They will motherfrick you so hard if you go into a session and say what's really on your mind. Don't fall for it bros, shit isn't like the movies/tv at all. These people exist at the behest of big pharma for the sole purpose of prescribing you everything but what you need(vitamin d and exercise).
If you live near the tropics or equator maybe. Some of us live up north and for 7-9 months a year it's overcast so there's little to no sunlight sufficient for vit d synthesis. I get almost all my d from food but most people supplement. Doubly so if they're darker than lightly toasted bread.

i went to the doctors once for something totally unrelated and for some reason the doctor asked me about my feelings and shit and immediately prescribed me anti depressants that made me worse. they also said i could see a therapist for free and i did and all they could tell me was really obvious shit that i already know. their whole fricking job is to tell YOU about YOUR feelings. this would be a great service if you had absolutely 0 internal monologue.
basically, FRICK big pharmaceutical companies and anything adjacent to it.
Most therapy is bullshit, you'd get as much out of it as talking your shit out with a friend. Problem is most people don't have a friend they'd trust with that shit.
I wouldnt want to hear any of my friends mental frick ups and these are guys I grew up with and would take a bullet for. Some shit you just keep to yourself or do like that wong kar wai movie and tell it to a fricking tree.
I agree about not being your friends therapist, but I disagree about keeping shit to yourself. You should have someone to talk to. If not a friend, then find an actual therapist. Or do what most people do and go to either a bar and talk the bartender’s ear off, or if you’re a girl, go to a nail salon and talk to the ESL employees.

and israeli inversion of confession, you know where you admit your wrongs and get advice and a clean slate to continue living, which is way more useful than having some israelite apprentice telling you "your behavior and shortcomings are all other peoples fault, here take these pills"
I went to AA and eventually ended up staying with my fellows, made new friends, and got my life together, but that's just for me. Therapy didn't do fricking shit for me either when I was a kid.
Aside from lots of psychology degrees needing and the medical industry bolstering itself, a lack of friends/social circle. People have fewer and fewer friends that they can confide in, vent to or get advice from.
it needs to studied how people can become addicted to therapy and never actually solve their problems and just spiral into become an unstoppable thought machine that simply think they are getting better but really they are just becoming obsessed with their own minds
ive seen a couple studies myself talking about the long term negative effects of some israelite in a herman miller mentally jerking off you, i wanna see more so people see how shit this garbage is
Millennials replaced religion with state sanctioned sycophants because they were to weak to live without a moral authority but didn't thier parents traditions
They're just like thier parents but switched out the old institutions with new variations
I laughed and also clapped when this happened. It finally released me from watching that show. It was like the runners pointing a loaded gun at the show and blowing its head off. Kind of if your mom walked into the room while you were playing with green army men, making noises and imagining a whole battle, and ruining the mood by telling you to stop making sounds and pretending, even though she bought you the fricking toys. Same thing, really.
Psychologists are not the same thing as psychiatrists. The latter can prescribe medication because he's a doctor, the former couldn't because he's basically a gender studies specialist.

Normalgays are narcissistic pieces of shit that have actual psychological breakdowns when they look at the night sky and realize the universe is massive and they are very, very small. I know a girl that this actually happened to They need therapy and pills just to function while my KHV ass feels blessed just to exist.
if you live in the era of air conditioning and infinite food readily available in any store and actually have the audacity to cry about it, you don't need therapy, you need to be left in the fricking woods
Everyone here is missing the real reason which is that most writers are hacks and can’t construct a scene where a character organically expresses their feelings.
Give them an emotional outburst or passive aggressive tendencies outside a psychologist’s environment. I think having their feeling be explained out loud and then examined in universe is sort of lazy and not very dramatic.
>yes goy, tell your deepest darkest fears and desires to a federal agent so we can prescribe you mind numbing drugs
SHAN'T, will just tell the boys my blues and move on with my life.
Unmeducated, unvaccinated, unfricking with the NWO.
I met a psychologist at brunch once. I asked her how many patients she cured and didn't need therapy anymore and she looked at me funny and said, "None."
Idiot. A psychologists job is to give patients methods to deal with struggles in their life properly and be more open with their loved ones. Anyone offering therapy who isn't losing clients is a fraud.
perhaps dentist is a more apt comparison. they don't "lose" clients. mental problems are an ongoing issue. they can be mitigated/addressed, but never fully "cured". that doesn't even make sense.
>stop being an butthole to everyone >stop getting mad about things beyond your control
if you can't get a person to do these two things after a year of therapy, you're an awful therapist.
If the person has those issues at all, they are a horrible person and will never make it. Therapy is an attempt to cure a problem that should never be tolerated.
Nah, therapists would first ask why you feel so angry? But your feeling of attractin, your concupiscence to your boy is something we should discuss in the view of your hate of your grandfather!
Sir, you shouldn't have broken my pate with your cellphone so! I'm just trying to dramatize your unconscious!
Sir, please! Security! Security!
>stop being an butthole to everyone >stop getting mad about things beyond your control
if you can't get a person to do these two things after a year of therapy, you're an awful therapist.
Pretty moronic takes tbqh. I agree that a therapist should ideally get their clients to a place where they have tools and resources outside of therapy to be well adjusted and keep their life on an upward swing, but that can’t be the goal for every client. The dentist example is a good comparison, but I think a better comparison is a personal trainer. Some people have little to no clue how to get in shape and others have a fairly solid idea, but there’s no one on earth that shouldn’t be getting a better workout with a personal trainer than without, no matter how much knowledge they already have. After a while you might be able to maintain your health and physique on your own with the nutritional and workout knowledge you’ve gained from the personal trainer, but for some they might choose to just have less sessions with their trainer or have them on call for whenever they need them, which could be in a month or a few months. It’s the same with a (good) therapist. You might go from weekly sessions to monthly, to maybe even quarterly. You might only book a session when you feel like you need them and that might be rare. Or you may be one of the few that built enough knowledge and resources to no longer have formal sessions with them. Either way, you’re not “cured”, because you’re still always working on aspects of yourself. With or without the therapist.
They're not. As many people have pointed out already, using a therapist as a plot device when the character in question would require a significantly contrived situation to put them in a place where they'd be able to convey the character development the writers want, is not uncommon, especially after The Sopranos. The problem and why you're noticing it is instead of using it as a tool to explore a character's inner thoughts and feelings in a literary way that typically isn't possible in TV or film, it's used crudely as a bludgeon to swing at an ideological ball on a tee and facilitate a big gay thinly veiled political monologue.
That seems well put enough. I agree with you. I did watch Sopranos way back then but don't know the show put in question, but it seems you well defined the situation at hand.
I went to therapy for one session after my mom died of an overdose and the therapist basically shit talked my dead mom and painted me as a victim. It was fricking infuriating, I walked out mid-conversation and I'll never do therapy again. I don't know how people do it.
>realest therapist there is >tells normie the truth about how objectively a drug addicted junkie like his mom is human trash >normie finds this imposition of the objective on his subjective experience intolerable >thinks he will get sympathy on a free speech forum like Cinemaphile, because he thinks we think therapists are just randomly evil people
Keep in mind that while therapists have an ethical obligation to keep your discussions private, they also have a legal obligation to report you if they think you're a potential danger. It's a good way to get snared by a red flag law and have your right to own a firearm revoked.
Because modern people are pretty shit. We are funnily at the same time very critical of ourselves and other people while at the same time being lazy, unable to do tasks and lacking life control. Therapy just tries to teach those simple concepts.
It really depends on the therapist. Do they follow Freud? Then they suck. If they follow Jung then they have a chance of being good. Also sometimes it just helps to tell someone shit you don't want other people to necessarily know. They don't even really need to have you do anything about it.
>tfw completely miserable worthless loser at 32 >no life accomplishments and terrified of everything, severely depressed, think about suicide all the time, life is endless shame and humiliation >people online tell n to need to be going to therapy, that I have actual problems unlike all the “normies” who feel sad or nervous sometimes so they go to therapy to get meds for their “depression” and “anxiety” >too scared to go to therapy and have to reveal my pathetic life to some therapist who can’t even relate to me
I don’t know what to do anons.
Just tell a therapist shit, doesn't even matter. It will make you feel better and they may be able to help. As I mentioned above try and gauge what they think of Freud and Jung, avoid ones who like Freud. Don't be a Turbo autist about it though, I feel like I have to say that here.
>try and gauge what they think of Freud and Jung
Buddy, you're going to get a LOT of blank looks and "Uhh I read extracts in undergrad, buuut we don't really focus so much on mr freud and mr jung these days" (read in feminine uptalk voice).
Here's a joke: What do you call someone who graduated at the bottom of their class and hasn't done anything to stay abreast of developments in their field since they graduated, even if it was decades ago?
You call them Doctor.
This. If you're ever unfortunate enough to have a condition that is even remotely hard to diagnose you will quickly find out how inept most physicians are. Every single field is 80%+ trained monkeys running a program and if your problem is outside of that program they get annoyed at you as if it's your fault.
Most ”civilians” are annoyed by random symptoms that don’t really mean anything and shouldn’t be worried about. If it’s something actually serious, doctors will find out what’s wrong with you.
I went to the doctor because my heart rate was way too high all the time and when I would get up to pee in the morning I would nearly pass out.
I was diagnosed with anxiety and given hydroxyzine.
It was dysautonomia.
Go frick yourself.

Wow i guess there are some really shitty doctors out there. You had a rare genetic condition that is in 1/100 000 people, of course the doctor didn’t know that. But he should have put you into some heart monitoring tests at least that would have begun the journey to right diagnosis. Most people don’t have symptoms as severe as you did.

It isn't that rare and the mean diagnostic delay is 5 years. My experience is the norm.
A doctor did an ECG, chest x-ray and blood panel after I insisted my symptoms were physical since they weren't consistent with anxiety. They came back clean because they're the wrong tests.
Only the ECG might have helped reach an accurate diagnosis but they would have to look for something very specific
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12531404/
I only know about this because I do the no no and I do my own research (that's also how I got a correct diagnosis that I had confirmed by le experts)
>Most ”civilians” are annoyed by random symptoms that don’t really mean anything and shouldn’t be worried about
This is the problem. The disorder went relatively unknown for a long time because the symptoms were dismissed as anxiety since they outwardly mimic anxiety, for the patient it is clear that it isn't.
If it isn't in the program/the box it doesn't exist and the patient must be insane. This NPC brained thinking permeates everything (read The Technological Society by Ellul)
Even I started to think I was insane.
Thanks for the (you), and let me amplify, for all anons reading: ALWAYS GET A 2ND OPINION. ALWAYS.
I'd be walking funny today from a "simple" broken leg if I hadn't demanded a 2nd opinion.
This should be obvious but no man should go to a female therapist. Find a Male one, it's just better for you. I feel like a lot of you guys have a bad experience with therapy because of this fact but even then you should be aware that some therapists are better than others and it may take a few tries to find one who can really help you.
I'm literally the same age and same situation. Personally it's not worth it because at the end the results always are the same of them blaming you for your inaction and that all you can do is cope about your wasted youth and try to make something of your lost life.
Oh and its not like the movies, most therapists I had didn't give two shits about your isolated childhood that made you a basement dweller. Only one old guy I had offered some empathy for my past but even then it was the same results that you'll hear from Chads here to just get over yourself and be a normie.
I’m a doctor myself and we healthcare professionals see some really fricked up shit. Like a parent having tried to both molest and kill the patient when the patient was a kid level stuff. Those people get our empathy. Some dude having just a sheltered upbringing and lacking perspective of things because of it and wasting their lives worrying about mundane shit doesn’t really wake up much for obvious reasons. There is no magic ticket, you just have to start taking control of your life now.
I figured as much, which is why I don't waste $100 a session talking to you homosexuals giving the same advise a dudebro on Cinemaphile gives for free.
I’d like to add that at least you have it better than the people who do everything right and work hard but then get a brain aneyrysm that takes their whole good life and everything they worked for years away. But of course due to your lack of life experience, you can’t see that you have it better still than these people.

Lol even this board has people who buy the therapy meme
God we are so fricking finished and we deserve it >aaaa nooo i have to work and i browse the internet all day
Yeah we deserve it.
I’ve never heard of or met someone that was vehemently anti-therapy that was well adjusted and doing well. I don’t go to one, but I see how it can benefit a lot of people.
What is there to “help” you utter moron everyone here is extremely comfortable in life. Also im not such a weak gay I need to pay someone to listen to my “problems” especially some dumb white b***h straight out of her israeliteniversity. Frick off.
Therapy is gay as shit and only women push it. If a man goes to therapy its because he doesn't have male friends to get perspective from. He doesn't have times where he disappears from his family/woman and gets out of his fricking head. Or puts the fricking fiction away and start reading books that'll actually giv him something to thinks about. Therapy is gay. Just find a reasonably intelligent/competent dude that you work with and throw some thoughts at him and see how he responds. Work your shit out like that. Not by sitting up talking to a fricking woman. I promise you; a chick can't fix your problems. This therapist is a stupid fricking character and Rick is actively made shitty by relying on/continuing to interact with this fricking idiot. Harmon clearly doesn't understand what makes Rick work and interesting so he'll just self-insert and ruin the frick from the inside out

All millennials are in therapy and take a concoction of antidepressants and antipsychotics because they are terrified of feeling emotions other than fake happiness like in their social media posts. An entire generation of emotionally stunted degenerates who love degenerate sex and sexual content because they NEED 12 inches of BBC to cum when all their meds are designed to prevent orgasms.
make work program for women, that's all it is. it's nothing more than israeli shamanism that probably harms more than helps, but it also generates billions through many rungs of society so who cares
ask a therapist how many people they have cured to the point where the patient no longer "needs" therapy. the answer will be zero. it's a fricking scam for 99% of people who literally just need to become adults and take responsibility.
[...]
I know this is bait but >go to therapy just because
Fricking why? If I had serious mental or emotional problems maybe but even then I'd feel like I was getting grifted. I'm convinced that people that insist everyone go to therapy even when there's nothing wrong are fricking demons
Pharma propaganda. Grassroots, the therapy shit was originally just a scam by people to get prescription pot or xanax as a meme, but then corporate propagandists took over and started convincing people that it actually was a good thing to go to and all those drugs actually helped.
It also exists to be Secular Confession, where you bear your sins and are absolved/chastized by an ordained authority figure.
Therapy is an institution designed to let people, mostly women, off the hook morally for their shitty actions. A woman who cheats on her bf with chad will feel momentarily bad about so she will head to therapy to "heal" and "find herself" which are code words for abaolving herself of her shame and guilt for hurting someone.
Therapy is a way for prostitutes to justify to themselves being prostitutes.
Furthermor3, a prostitute will heat, go to therapy, announce she is healed, and pro ptly forget about ever having cheated, because her guilt has been removed for her.
Its a way for bad people to see th3mselves as victims. >I know I fricked up, I'm in therapy, therefore you cant call me out

No...? Therapy is for people who have depression, or ADHD, or autism, or PTSD, or family counseling. Women aren't just casually going to therapy to dish about their cheating escapades, where the hell did you get that idea? Cable TV isn't real life.
Okay, but they also go out of their way to convince regular people they have ptsd when they are just being pussies. A housewife who has never experienced hardship doesnt have ptsd because her dad made an inappropriate comment about her body when she was 10. It's a grift.
Once you go to therapy there's a mental health related medical record for you that can be referenced and when they finally reinstate the insane asylums anyone with a record like that that they don't like or can't control gets locked up with a reasonable enough excuse.
Really though I think its just the pharmaceutical industrial complex trying its hardest to get every living human being hooked on as many drugs as possible. Doctors of all stripes get kickbacks from drug companies for pushing/prescribing meds to folks.

The more money a culture has the softer the people are. California is full of very wealthy people, but also extremely destitute people. Poor people don’t make movies and shows, nepo-gays do. They are soo soft, they can’t deal with everyday life, and need endless crutches. Meanwhile people in the actual depression buried their kids, and walked to their never ending jobs through sandstorms, without anything but a second world war to look forward to.

sounds like a bunch of bologna bullshit if the quality is so variable among people who supposedly have masters degrees, and passed the examinations for the same licensure, because it all boils down to the "vibes".

Most women are all talk and no action. For therapy to work you need to take steps to improve your situation yourself, your therapist is only there to help you get a different perspective on things and can come with advice for what to do about how you are feeling and stuff.
Pharmaceutical company propaganda
People used to go to church and receive guidance from clergymen or trusted members of the community. Now no one goes to church and no one has a community so they pay a israelite $60/hr to listen to them.
Not all therapists are psychiatrists, but yeah it's an insurance industry grift at the very least.

trying to normalize it, the average person should not be so depressed and mentally ill that they need pills and therapy yet here we are so ((they)) are trying to paint it as “a good thing” and “healthy”
Write what you know. This is what writers think a normal life is.
this. it's the same reason everyone in sitcoms is just a smug west coast butthole instead of funny and wholesome.
Sopranos is based, keep seething
I went to therapy for 5 years and it didn't do jack shit.
I went for 3 and I think I ended up worse
I had for 2 years and then quit because it was getting expensive and I was bored af at that point to attend it. I don't think it did anything. I know a little better why I jerk off to certain things now but I still do.
i went for two years and had literally zero progress and was getting incredibly frustrated as to why.
later found out i have a personality disorder that makes therapy very hard and they just never bothered telling me about it.
>personality disorder
Much like "unconscious bias" this straight up seems insane to me that its a legit diagnosis. Its basically like, "you dont even know how fricked you are!"
yep its a bummer. looking back at how i behaved in therapy with her for two years is pretty embarassing. i thought i understood my behaviour but she saw straight through it and just let me continue acting like a fool.
i dunno if i would say its a scam. i talked to another psychologist and it was actually pretty helpful. but the way we talked to eachother was completely different than how i talked to my previous psychologist.
Similar story. Spent a bunch of time and money to talk to some jackass and never felt better.
Learned later down the road Im HF for ADHD and it made me anxious and I just needed a low dose of Adderall and suddenly so much of my bullshit went away.
I know therapists and psychiatrists are different professions, but come the frick 2 years of opening up and you dont even form a suspicion or inkling as a professional?
Frick outta here.
Therapy is a scam.
Oh also during my last session because I already told her since she also raised the prices, and I was fired recently from my job I said I woulnd't be able to afford at this point. And I also told her recently that I had pictures of my ex and also use AI porn shit and other degenerate stuff like that and post online. So she also told me since it was illegal and immoral or something I should stop that behaviour before coming back. It was the most Tony Soprano moment of my life.
Look at the surname of most therapists.
There's your answer.
Because all the nepobabbys who make up 90% of movie/tv directors, writers, actors were raised by school&nannies and sent to therapy when they'd inevitably get fricked up due to lack of parental upbringing.
They want you to be just as compromised as they are. Youd have to be the dumbest motherfricker alive to think your therapist isnt recording all your sessions.
why would you be afraid of someone recording your sessions? holly shit dude, I'm scared of your guro & rekt collection now.
I saw a Harvard grad psychologist and after two appointments I felt it was a waste because she just wanted to discuss movies. Then months later I saw her in my theater for Inception. She waved, and I waved, then about a half hour in she walked out of the movie and didn’t come back.
It violates doctor-patient confidentiality for her to wave to you first in public. You should report her.
She sounds smart, that movie sucked
> then about a half hour in she walked out of the movie and didn’t come back.
Did you feel abandoned?
>harvard grad
Shes either a soulless dumb rich kid who only cares about getting good grades
Ivy league grads are smug out of touch neoliberal buttholes who peaked in college maturity wise
I bet she had a massive shit on deck.
Was she qt
Therapy is both over and underrated. If you're a normie with only standard normie problems like workplace stress, it's over-shilled and there are other ways you could better improve your life, but if you have a serious mental illness it can be genuinely helpful and you would do better to get therapy and ignore mongs telling you to just "get over it"
that's real fricking psychotic to think a professional who sees thousands of people in a span of two months would recognize you after meeting her twice for a maximum of 30 minutes. and to randomly wave to a stranger is the icing on a cake lmao
this was for
She waved to me dumbass. You must be an autistic to go off on a tangent like that.
sure, you got me with her waving first. and i'll admit that i thought it was only two months between each situation. doesn't change the fact she gets rent for free
You're half right. Therapists are useful for normies with the mindspan of a goldfish. The ones who felt suicidal for not being able to drink shitty expensive coffee during the coof lockdowns.
This. Therapy is still only as useful as you let it be, and there are a LOT of useless therapists, so finding the "right" one is half the battle. But they're not there to fix your problems - they're there to help you help yourself fix your problems.
Most therapists suck. It took me 7 years to find a good therapist.
A good way to "test" if a therapist is doing anything remotely good for you is if, after 3 sessions, you haven't gleaned anything useful from them, it's a fricking scam. It is unfortunately easy for therapists to just throw textbook bullshit at you that won't help you at all, and trying to tell the difference as someone who just needs help is very difficult. But if you aren't walking away with even a nugget of something useful, find another.
mine said "just pull yourself together"
well yeah, if i could i wouldnt be here would i?
I had a shrink who literally said nothing. I would go in and talk at him and he would listen and offer nothing in response.
All of did was play chess with a middle aged guy 3 times a week and talk about sports when I was 11. Bro had like the easiest job in the world.
Also I just go to church now. Karma keeps me doing it and all the nice people. Once we are dead we are dead, but the fellowship and good morality is what "God" is to me. I'm the only honky in a black Baptist church for 8 years. They sorta got used to me.
if you have a serious mental illness the odds of therapy actually helping you are very slim. Schizoids are rarely ever "cured." Therapy is best used by morons who have zero self-introspection and literally need someone to ask them how they feel about certain things.
>I hit my wife last night!
>And did it make you happy?
>No!
>And did your wife feel happy?
>...probably not...
i think people just like the idea that you could go to a professional who can make you think all the things they want you to think
I don't see why that is so bad. Obviously someone who is in mental health work would probably lean left. Also would you really want to talk about your fetishes, latent suicidality and possible transgenderism to a pro or your priest?
>Also would you really want to talk about your fetishes, latent suicidality and possible transgenderism
Why would I talk about something I don't have? Bizarre projection.

The priest. For one, he’s bound by religion never to tell on me, which is a bigger deal than it just being illegal. Secondly, because he doesn’t want to discuss it with me, you would just get it off your chest in a complete vacuum of judgement. I don’t need some feminist b***h who’s probably fricked up herself to explain my decisions to me, I just need to state them and move on.
Priests are also bound by religion to not molest and rape kids but they do it anyway.
I fricking hate christcucks so much. You homosexuals put these hypocritical shits on a pedestal just like the left puts trannies on one.
I hope for nothing more than a massive world war between israelites, trannies and troony worshippers, christcucks, and mudslimes that results in the death of every last one of them. Only then can we have peace once the four largest factions intent on subjugating everyone else to their make believe are no more.

I thought you were supposed to confess your sins and shit.
just keep that shit to yourself, nobody cares. Plus talking about it only makes it more of a reality

It's really strange how more comparisons aren't made with catholics and confession, especially with how supposedly secular therapy is. Something to learn about the nature of religion there.
Confession is for people who already understand that they did something wrong and want to at the very least spiritually own up to it. Therapy is for people who want to be told they can do no wrong, or at the very least the wrong can always be blamed on outside factors and you can get agency-destroying validation pills for that if you pay the right price.
Exactly. People who DO have a moral compass don't need psychologists to tell them what they already know.
And if it's not about what they did wrong? If it's about an anxiety? A dperession? A lazyness that they don't know what it's about?
I recommend cutting timber with an axe.
And where am I supposed to do that, gay?
Are you moronic? Look outside.
I don’t take advice from people with a more fricked up life than me.
>gets really good advice
>immediately resorts to smarmy ego defense bullshit
You deserve your misery.
Your advice was for people to cut down trees to cure their anxiety and depression. I’m guessing you have issues you’re ignoring.
>are you anxious? depressed? angry? acquire a large sharp object and swing it around aggressively
?
Yes.
Unless you're a woman.
>if you pay the right price
Yeah it's not like the catholic church ever sold indulgences or passes around a plate asking for money when you're sitting in their ornate palatial temple every Sunday. It's all a racket anon
>small optional donations are the same thing as the compelled purchase of psych medications with unpredictable side effects
homie really?
>Therapy is for people who want to be told they can do no wrong, or at the very least the wrong can always be blamed on outside factors and you can get agency-destroying validation pills for that if you pay the right price.
yes, couldnt have said it better.
for normalgays therapy is about validation and relinquishing control. For them it is liberating to tell themselves "I act this way because I have anxiety, doctor said so, I cant control the way I act. I need these pills to control it. If I still act out while on pills well, it only proves my anxiety is that strong!
Having a mental issue is a way to absolve you of resposibility
How do they not hate themselves then?
Confession is free and brief, and the priests themselves don't actually tell you what to think about your actions they just serve as a stand-in for Christ. It's really nothing like therapy.
Twitter freaks and breadtuber simps are the modern day inquisitors/confessor
>you did a heckin racism CONFESS

True
The one time I talked to a psych I brought up how Jung more or less said this and the psych seemed offended. Later he asked me if I had heard the bus metaphor, I hadn't, but I made a guess as to what it was, but he said "no that's not it" then proceeded to recite the elementary school tier shit that I had just guessed.
I would unironically rather go to a priest.
What's the bus metaphor?
Cathcucks are like Black folk in the sense that they think everything is about them or made by them, and are always looking to be offended by it

Serious question, is confession a good place to vent? Don't wanna pay for a therapist, I just wanna talk shit about my coworkers.
That’s the opposite of what confession is for

It's just a friendship replacement. Sadly friendship is very lacking nowadays.
Friendship is a 20 year old's thing. That shit goes away once you hit 30. Nonexistent at 40 as a concept. Just get a fricking hobby.
Nowadays? Like every single character in a tv drama had a shrink back in the 90's
They will motherfrick you so hard if you go into a session and say what's really on your mind. Don't fall for it bros, shit isn't like the movies/tv at all. These people exist at the behest of big pharma for the sole purpose of prescribing you everything but what you need(vitamin d and exercise).
>vitamin d
Sunlight? (Specifically; it has a better chance of leading to some social interaction than a vitamin pill)
If you live near the tropics or equator maybe. Some of us live up north and for 7-9 months a year it's overcast so there's little to no sunlight sufficient for vit d synthesis. I get almost all my d from food but most people supplement. Doubly so if they're darker than lightly toasted bread.
How does D vitamin affect your mood?
Positively
Thanks for the broscience
No problem bro
It’s the precursor to hormones like serotonin and dopamine
This is simple biology you fricking moron. Learn to Google, homosexual
i went to the doctors once for something totally unrelated and for some reason the doctor asked me about my feelings and shit and immediately prescribed me anti depressants that made me worse. they also said i could see a therapist for free and i did and all they could tell me was really obvious shit that i already know. their whole fricking job is to tell YOU about YOUR feelings. this would be a great service if you had absolutely 0 internal monologue.
basically, FRICK big pharmaceutical companies and anything adjacent to it.
It's just a good way for bad writers to have a mouthpiece character who tears down the cast.
media is a israeli trade
therapy is a israeli trade
they like it when you purchase services as this limits your ability to acquire assets of your own
Most therapy is bullshit, you'd get as much out of it as talking your shit out with a friend. Problem is most people don't have a friend they'd trust with that shit.
I wouldnt want to hear any of my friends mental frick ups and these are guys I grew up with and would take a bullet for. Some shit you just keep to yourself or do like that wong kar wai movie and tell it to a fricking tree.
I agree about not being your friends therapist, but I disagree about keeping shit to yourself. You should have someone to talk to. If not a friend, then find an actual therapist. Or do what most people do and go to either a bar and talk the bartender’s ear off, or if you’re a girl, go to a nail salon and talk to the ESL employees.
That’s a good movie
big pharma
and israeli inversion of confession, you know where you admit your wrongs and get advice and a clean slate to continue living, which is way more useful than having some israelite apprentice telling you "your behavior and shortcomings are all other peoples fault, here take these pills"
It's a feminist thing. They love talking about their feelings.
Trusting another human, who barely has an idea how to get through life, to explain how to get through yours is fricking apex stupidity.

Well it certainly keeps you going to a psychiatrist.
Feminist power structure. They don't solve or help shit.
>Why is media shilling therapy so much nowadays?
Because a psychiatrist can take your legal rights away from you.
Aside from lots of psychology degrees needing and the medical industry bolstering itself, a lack of friends/social circle. People have fewer and fewer friends that they can confide in, vent to or get advice from.

Same thing, really.

Do you guys realize that therapists can't even prescribe medication? Physicians and psychologists do that.
I don't think psychologists can prescribe medications. At least not where I live.
moronic misspelling on my part
Psychologists are not the same thing as psychiatrists. The latter can prescribe medication because he's a doctor, the former couldn't because he's basically a gender studies specialist.
both professions are gender studies specialists except one has a license to legally deal heroin and meth in the guise of “medications”

because there is none.
There is. Academically, at least. They do need to have their farmacology 101 for example.
nah, it's like the difference between a job and a career. there is none. they're interchangable.

Everyone here is missing the real reason which is that most writers are hacks and can’t construct a scene where a character organically expresses their feelings.
This is still kino though
?si=WoUeprpiB8DieiCi
and what would an example of that be, anon?
Give them an emotional outburst or passive aggressive tendencies outside a psychologist’s environment. I think having their feeling be explained out loud and then examined in universe is sort of lazy and not very dramatic.
you can't think of a specific example? guess you were right.
>yes goy, tell your deepest darkest fears and desires to a federal agent so we can prescribe you mind numbing drugs

I met a psychologist at brunch once. I asked her how many patients she cured and didn't need therapy anymore and she looked at me funny and said, "None."
do you cure your hunger by eating a meal one time? don't be dense, anon.
Idiot. A psychologists job is to give patients methods to deal with struggles in their life properly and be more open with their loved ones. Anyone offering therapy who isn't losing clients is a fraud.
perhaps dentist is a more apt comparison. they don't "lose" clients. mental problems are an ongoing issue. they can be mitigated/addressed, but never fully "cured". that doesn't even make sense.
>stop being an butthole to everyone
>stop getting mad about things beyond your control
if you can't get a person to do these two things after a year of therapy, you're an awful therapist.
If the person has those issues at all, they are a horrible person and will never make it. Therapy is an attempt to cure a problem that should never be tolerated.
No, therapy is an attempt to get people hooked on mind altering drugs for life.
True.
Nah, therapists would first ask why you feel so angry? But your feeling of attractin, your concupiscence to your boy is something we should discuss in the view of your hate of your grandfather!
Sir, you shouldn't have broken my pate with your cellphone so! I'm just trying to dramatize your unconscious!
Sir, please! Security! Security!
it's all sexual shit ain't it? including the delicious nuns...
Pretty moronic takes tbqh. I agree that a therapist should ideally get their clients to a place where they have tools and resources outside of therapy to be well adjusted and keep their life on an upward swing, but that can’t be the goal for every client. The dentist example is a good comparison, but I think a better comparison is a personal trainer. Some people have little to no clue how to get in shape and others have a fairly solid idea, but there’s no one on earth that shouldn’t be getting a better workout with a personal trainer than without, no matter how much knowledge they already have. After a while you might be able to maintain your health and physique on your own with the nutritional and workout knowledge you’ve gained from the personal trainer, but for some they might choose to just have less sessions with their trainer or have them on call for whenever they need them, which could be in a month or a few months. It’s the same with a (good) therapist. You might go from weekly sessions to monthly, to maybe even quarterly. You might only book a session when you feel like you need them and that might be rare. Or you may be one of the few that built enough knowledge and resources to no longer have formal sessions with them. Either way, you’re not “cured”, because you’re still always working on aspects of yourself. With or without the therapist.
tl;dr
Yeah personal trainers are a good comparison because most of them know jack shit and are likely to give ineffectual or even harmful advice.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
They're not. As many people have pointed out already, using a therapist as a plot device when the character in question would require a significantly contrived situation to put them in a place where they'd be able to convey the character development the writers want, is not uncommon, especially after The Sopranos. The problem and why you're noticing it is instead of using it as a tool to explore a character's inner thoughts and feelings in a literary way that typically isn't possible in TV or film, it's used crudely as a bludgeon to swing at an ideological ball on a tee and facilitate a big gay thinly veiled political monologue.
That seems well put enough. I agree with you. I did watch Sopranos way back then but don't know the show put in question, but it seems you well defined the situation at hand.
I went to therapy for one session after my mom died of an overdose and the therapist basically shit talked my dead mom and painted me as a victim. It was fricking infuriating, I walked out mid-conversation and I'll never do therapy again. I don't know how people do it.
>I went to a shit therapist
>I can’t fathom how others that don’t have my shit therapist do it
They probably don’t have your shit therapist
To be fair, wasnt your mom a drugsaddict? How is that not a worthless human being?

>thinks he will get sympathy on a free speech forum like Cinemaphile, because he thinks we think therapists are just randomly evil people
Keep in mind that while therapists have an ethical obligation to keep your discussions private, they also have a legal obligation to report you if they think you're a potential danger. It's a good way to get snared by a red flag law and have your right to own a firearm revoked.
Because modern people are pretty shit. We are funnily at the same time very critical of ourselves and other people while at the same time being lazy, unable to do tasks and lacking life control. Therapy just tries to teach those simple concepts.

It really depends on the therapist. Do they follow Freud? Then they suck. If they follow Jung then they have a chance of being good. Also sometimes it just helps to tell someone shit you don't want other people to necessarily know. They don't even really need to have you do anything about it.
Both are horribly outdated dude, its been more than a hundred years...

Just tell a therapist shit, doesn't even matter. It will make you feel better and they may be able to help. As I mentioned above try and gauge what they think of Freud and Jung, avoid ones who like Freud. Don't be a Turbo autist about it though, I feel like I have to say that here.
>try and gauge what they think of Freud and Jung
Buddy, you're going to get a LOT of blank looks and "Uhh I read extracts in undergrad, buuut we don't really focus so much on mr freud and mr jung these days" (read in feminine uptalk voice).
Here's a joke: What do you call someone who graduated at the bottom of their class and hasn't done anything to stay abreast of developments in their field since they graduated, even if it was decades ago?
You call them Doctor.
This. If you're ever unfortunate enough to have a condition that is even remotely hard to diagnose you will quickly find out how inept most physicians are. Every single field is 80%+ trained monkeys running a program and if your problem is outside of that program they get annoyed at you as if it's your fault.
Most ”civilians” are annoyed by random symptoms that don’t really mean anything and shouldn’t be worried about. If it’s something actually serious, doctors will find out what’s wrong with you.
I went to the doctor because my heart rate was way too high all the time and when I would get up to pee in the morning I would nearly pass out.
I was diagnosed with anxiety and given hydroxyzine.
It was dysautonomia.
Go frick yourself.
Wow i guess there are some really shitty doctors out there. You had a rare genetic condition that is in 1/100 000 people, of course the doctor didn’t know that. But he should have put you into some heart monitoring tests at least that would have begun the journey to right diagnosis. Most people don’t have symptoms as severe as you did.
It isn't that rare and the mean diagnostic delay is 5 years. My experience is the norm.
A doctor did an ECG, chest x-ray and blood panel after I insisted my symptoms were physical since they weren't consistent with anxiety. They came back clean because they're the wrong tests.
Only the ECG might have helped reach an accurate diagnosis but they would have to look for something very specific

I only know about this because I do the no no and I do my own research (that's also how I got a correct diagnosis that I had confirmed by le experts)
>Most ”civilians” are annoyed by random symptoms that don’t really mean anything and shouldn’t be worried about
This is the problem. The disorder went relatively unknown for a long time because the symptoms were dismissed as anxiety since they outwardly mimic anxiety, for the patient it is clear that it isn't.
If it isn't in the program/the box it doesn't exist and the patient must be insane. This NPC brained thinking permeates everything (read The Technological Society by Ellul)
Even I started to think I was insane.
Thanks for the (you), and let me amplify, for all anons reading: ALWAYS GET A 2ND OPINION. ALWAYS.
I'd be walking funny today from a "simple" broken leg if I hadn't demanded a 2nd opinion.
This should be obvious but no man should go to a female therapist. Find a Male one, it's just better for you. I feel like a lot of you guys have a bad experience with therapy because of this fact but even then you should be aware that some therapists are better than others and it may take a few tries to find one who can really help you.
I'm literally the same age and same situation. Personally it's not worth it because at the end the results always are the same of them blaming you for your inaction and that all you can do is cope about your wasted youth and try to make something of your lost life.
Oh and its not like the movies, most therapists I had didn't give two shits about your isolated childhood that made you a basement dweller. Only one old guy I had offered some empathy for my past but even then it was the same results that you'll hear from Chads here to just get over yourself and be a normie.
I’m a doctor myself and we healthcare professionals see some really fricked up shit. Like a parent having tried to both molest and kill the patient when the patient was a kid level stuff. Those people get our empathy. Some dude having just a sheltered upbringing and lacking perspective of things because of it and wasting their lives worrying about mundane shit doesn’t really wake up much for obvious reasons. There is no magic ticket, you just have to start taking control of your life now.
I figured as much, which is why I don't waste $100 a session talking to you homosexuals giving the same advise a dudebro on Cinemaphile gives for free.
I’d like to add that at least you have it better than the people who do everything right and work hard but then get a brain aneyrysm that takes their whole good life and everything they worked for years away. But of course due to your lack of life experience, you can’t see that you have it better still than these people.
youre the exact reason therapy is shit
cant get any empathy if you only got beaten and neglected as kid
Women writers. b***hes love therapy.
>someone just listens to a woman yammer on and on
>nothing really changes
>woman pays money
>see you next week, lady
It is basically like a pay for friendzone scheme, isn't it?
This. It's just women writing their own experience which is wine and therapy.
women
Cognitive dissonance is a b***h. Leftists need therapy to justify living a life that contradicts biology and nature
>Why is media shilling therapy so much nowadays?
Women fricking love having someone to just vent all of their bullshit to, which is basically what therapy is.
>Join Manyvids
>Buy a video from a chick that does dildo fricking
>Get a thank you PM and somehow it became a full on daily chat
>Got essentially a daily pen pal who is fine with dirty talk
I think I love this woman, she's not grifting me trying to advertise her videos. She responds to my what I say with actual depth. I never expected to get the social stimulation I longed for from a cam prostitute.
Holy grim
I hope you realize literally any girl who is into you is "essentially a daily pen pal who is fine with dirty talk" ya sperg
>any girl who is into you
Haha oh wow
>any girl who is into you
Yeah, never has happened.
Seeing a therapist tomorrow, what should I say to her that'll get me an adderall prescription other than the obvious im lazy, live life procrastinating, adhd,moronic, unmotivated,etc...
I just like adderall
bump
Most writers have psychology degrees. That's why the smartest, cleverest and most sex-havingest geniuses in film and television are psychologists.
because only women watch modern goyslop and women are the ultimate cash cows
Society is collapsing and the ruling class wants to keep the commoners from rebelling.
Give your money to a israelite to listen to you rant, goy, it'll surely fix your problems. Take some zombie meds while you're at it.
Fricking idiot b***h thinks she's part of a club. Just a dumb neurotic c**t.
Jesus christ how horrifying. How do people live like this?
I despise white leftoids so fricking much
will never get over the fact she takes her night time insomnia meds with surgar laden coffee
Lol even this board has people who buy the therapy meme
God we are so fricking finished and we deserve it
>aaaa nooo i have to work and i browse the internet all day
Yeah we deserve it.
I’ve never heard of or met someone that was vehemently anti-therapy that was well adjusted and doing well. I don’t go to one, but I see how it can benefit a lot of people.
Thats probably because you live in a left wing homosexual filled bubble. Being around your worthless pieces of shit would drive anyone insane
Oh does building a headcanon around who I supposedly am make you feel better? Go for it then, doesn’t change how right I am.
Youre arguing about therapy with strangers on Cinemaphile. The irony is palpable.
Not every response is an argument, anon. And yeah I post on Cinemaphile. So?
probably the highly congested thread of schizos refusing to help themselves i've ever seen. holy sheeeeeeit
What is there to “help” you utter moron everyone here is extremely comfortable in life. Also im not such a weak gay I need to pay someone to listen to my “problems” especially some dumb white b***h straight out of her israeliteniversity. Frick off.
Therapy is gay as shit and only women push it. If a man goes to therapy its because he doesn't have male friends to get perspective from. He doesn't have times where he disappears from his family/woman and gets out of his fricking head. Or puts the fricking fiction away and start reading books that'll actually giv him something to thinks about. Therapy is gay. Just find a reasonably intelligent/competent dude that you work with and throw some thoughts at him and see how he responds. Work your shit out like that. Not by sitting up talking to a fricking woman. I promise you; a chick can't fix your problems. This therapist is a stupid fricking character and Rick is actively made shitty by relying on/continuing to interact with this fricking idiot. Harmon clearly doesn't understand what makes Rick work and interesting so he'll just self-insert and ruin the frick from the inside out
>be stressed at work
>go ask doctor for help, maybe access to a stress handling course
>sorry kid, can't do that
>try youtube, they got plenty of guides :^)
If talking about your problems solves them I'd argue it wasn't a real problem to begin with
>nowadays
Sopranos came out 25 years ago
Ill save you multiple installments of $150 to some moron leftist woman
>stop smoking weed
>workout
>get a job
>get right wing male friends
Wow so hard
All millennials are in therapy and take a concoction of antidepressants and antipsychotics because they are terrified of feeling emotions other than fake happiness like in their social media posts. An entire generation of emotionally stunted degenerates who love degenerate sex and sexual content because they NEED 12 inches of BBC to cum when all their meds are designed to prevent orgasms.
make work program for women, that's all it is. it's nothing more than israeli shamanism that probably harms more than helps, but it also generates billions through many rungs of society so who cares
ask a therapist how many people they have cured to the point where the patient no longer "needs" therapy. the answer will be zero. it's a fricking scam for 99% of people who literally just need to become adults and take responsibility.
Read the thread, you unoriginal moron.
Yeah, you should definitely get therapy for your anger-issues.
Stop being mad online.
Who are you calling "angry" schizo?
Meds. Now
Those SSRI prescriptions don't sell themselves.
Pharma propaganda. Grassroots, the therapy shit was originally just a scam by people to get prescription pot or xanax as a meme, but then corporate propagandists took over and started convincing people that it actually was a good thing to go to and all those drugs actually helped.
It also exists to be Secular Confession, where you bear your sins and are absolved/chastized by an ordained authority figure.
Therapy is an institution designed to let people, mostly women, off the hook morally for their shitty actions. A woman who cheats on her bf with chad will feel momentarily bad about so she will head to therapy to "heal" and "find herself" which are code words for abaolving herself of her shame and guilt for hurting someone.
Therapy is a way for prostitutes to justify to themselves being prostitutes.
Furthermor3, a prostitute will heat, go to therapy, announce she is healed, and pro ptly forget about ever having cheated, because her guilt has been removed for her.
Its a way for bad people to see th3mselves as victims.
>I know I fricked up, I'm in therapy, therefore you cant call me out
Typos are my phoneposting shitty fingers my bad
>absolve
>cheat
>promptly
No...? Therapy is for people who have depression, or ADHD, or autism, or PTSD, or family counseling. Women aren't just casually going to therapy to dish about their cheating escapades, where the hell did you get that idea? Cable TV isn't real life.
You have a woman’s brain
I think therapy is overused but is legitimately useful for some people, like my friend with PTSD
Okay, but they also go out of their way to convince regular people they have ptsd when they are just being pussies. A housewife who has never experienced hardship doesnt have ptsd because her dad made an inappropriate comment about her body when she was 10. It's a grift.
You aren’t disagreeing with me. Some people out there do have deep seated issues
Your friend probably is just a pussy too.
moron
No.
My schizo conspiracy theory take:
Once you go to therapy there's a mental health related medical record for you that can be referenced and when they finally reinstate the insane asylums anyone with a record like that that they don't like or can't control gets locked up with a reasonable enough excuse.
Really though I think its just the pharmaceutical industrial complex trying its hardest to get every living human being hooked on as many drugs as possible. Doctors of all stripes get kickbacks from drug companies for pushing/prescribing meds to folks.
I know this is bait but
>go to therapy just because
Fricking why? If I had serious mental or emotional problems maybe but even then I'd feel like I was getting grifted. I'm convinced that people that insist everyone go to therapy even when there's nothing wrong are fricking demons
Americans seem to need it.
The more money a culture has the softer the people are. California is full of very wealthy people, but also extremely destitute people. Poor people don’t make movies and shows, nepo-gays do. They are soo soft, they can’t deal with everyday life, and need endless crutches. Meanwhile people in the actual depression buried their kids, and walked to their never ending jobs through sandstorms, without anything but a second world war to look forward to.
>Meanwhile people in the actual depression buried their kids, and walked to their never ending jobs through sandstorms, without anything but a second world war to look forward to.
KEK what the frick are you talking about?
Is this AI generated?
>you just went to a bad therapist
sounds like a bunch of bologna bullshit if the quality is so variable among people who supposedly have masters degrees, and passed the examinations for the same licensure, because it all boils down to the "vibes".
Oddly high number of opinions ITT from people who have clearly never been to therapy.
The confession responses are particularly telling
We are rapidly approaching a time where you will be considered a minority if you *arent* taking psychotropic drugs
>Spends all day jerking to virtual disgusting hyper stimulating degenerate fetish porn
>Plays bibeogaymes still
>full of hate
>No life
>Muh medicated people are the problem!!!!!!
>full of hate
What is this cope? You take a pill to accept that youre a worthless piece of shit or something?
lay off the HRT moron
Because a lot of people need it.
what would therapy do he was right
wanting to run over Portlanders is a sane and natural feeling
So why exactly do women like therapy so much, anyways?
Most of the time women just use it to absolve themselves of their responsibility for being a piece of shit
therapy allows you to be the victim. narcissists love that.
Most women are all talk and no action. For therapy to work you need to take steps to improve your situation yourself, your therapist is only there to help you get a different perspective on things and can come with advice for what to do about how you are feeling and stuff.
>you're a homosexual loser and probably poor, so pay someone money to pretend to be your friend lol that'll definitely help
no
