Everyone
Sometimes I feel depressed
Im sorry to hear that crowd x.x i think ive actually heard how bad it is over there
That's why I'm in therapy
im in the U.S. :/
I can't afford it, so I turned to meditation and mindfulness exercises
All I do is sleep and attempt to work on model ships
We get good healthcare here, and its free. Problem is mental health.
Only things that make me happy to any extent anymore
Currently I don't feel depressed
Sometimes I do
graf they wont give you drugs unless you ask for them. You always start off with talk therapy first
imo SSRIs aren't a good idea that young
depends on the person really, but thats true, your brain is still developing
it isnt done growing yet
They've got some sort of trick up their sleeve
I Know they do
You must first consider that you do need help. And it's okay to accept it, lots of people need help
graf thats a misconception
sarai is right again
They're gonna play around in my head and make me dance to their tune
Nope
My therapist is okay tbh
Graf they try to help you see things in a different light, and they LET you have your emotions. they dont tell you its wrong to feel what youre feeling
The self is an illusion anyways developed through habit. It's not worth holding onto if it's making you miserable.
Who here isn't in therapy?
I can tell you with confidence that I'm studying for a doctorates degree in psychology not because I want to trick people but because I genuinely want to help

Basically Graf. They'll help you identify what's fucking with you..... and then help you develop a set of "mental tools" to make it stop hindering you.
thats therapists life goal is to help others
No offense, but if you were it wouldn't be in your best interest to say you were
crowd is right
Most psychologists and therapists get into it because they themselves needed serious help at one point
^
I might become a psychologist
I got about a third of a psych degree for that very reason
I just didn't finish
Many of them know what it's like to be in your shoes. That's why they wanna help
why is there such a stigma with therapy? and whats wrong with saying that you are in therapy? I swear anyone who judges you based on that is a god damn toxic asshole.
