like marketing and PR use analytic psychology

sec

Because it actually gives a better roadmap of human behaviour

CBT is just an exercise in conforming to problematic systems

shit maybe i should get some counselling

Yeah the truth is psychotherapy aka talk therapy

works

but it just takes a while

CBT is the mcdonalds of therapy

honestly I've really only started taking more of an interest in mental health because of my SO and her experiences

my last gf taught me a lot about this just by how she approached it

she finally got into psychotherapy and it helped her overcome some serious trauma from being raped as a kid

I don't want to self-diagnose but I struggle to find some happiness in this system we live in

Being labled never helped her

the news is just so fucking depressing

but to stay informed I have to read it

its masochistic

And she got me a good therapist too

who never told me i have anything but some shitty child hood stuff to work through

and to just get some actual discussion I have to hangout in brigaded forums to try and talk about the shit that pisses me off

yeah people are collectively anxious af

My college has a counselling service that I should probably take some time to see

in this era in the west

and my father whos a psych tells me shit that makes my blood boil

Please go on

Like behind closed doors they dont even believe the dsm

I don't think I can get more upset than I already am

@Nicholas91 that's fucked up

dsm?

@Nicholas91 what does your GF have?

They think it at bests describes some patterns that people have in response to trauma and so on

My ex gf was raped repeatedly as a kid

when her mum needed some cash

That's awful

oh man

yah so they would say she has bipolar or whatever

and that went on forever

my so

is in a slightly similar situation

until she figured out that therapy itself has been split into two camps

i hesistate to make comparisons
