I had heavens reward fallacy for sure. I was just a martyr suffering in a shit job for years

If you don’t look out for yourself no one else will

You need to be an agent for yourself

bernie sanders will look out for me

I have a TERRIBLE problem with filtering

If I think of my performance at work/school I ONLY see my failures my successes are invisible to me

I will hyper focus over any mistake or problem and gloss over 20 successes and forget them

@fuguer I used to, desensitization defeats catastrophization like rock paper scissors

Which makes it harder to stand up and demand to be paid fairly

Nerth you mean emotional numbing?

I have 0 styles of distorted thinking. 😎

yes DBT/CBT stuff is unironically good

Black and white thinking is common too

just pick up a DBT workbook

Labeling people as 100% good or 100% bad not seeing the true complexity

its good for everyone

Yeah nerth

I see my psych once a month

When I get prescription

Honestly it’s pretty worth it. It’s covered by insurance and it’s like having a free life coach

Definitely helpful for me

I see my drug dealer once a month

Can talk about anything you want to accomplish or do better. Work on fears, do better at work, relationships

It's pretty worth it

My Jewish boss covers the cost of my being on peds

Well if your drugs increase your salary 2-3x go for it

Cbd oil ? @Nerthulas

no

Lol

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy...

Oh lol

Nerth you should do the talk therapy in addition to meds

when people tell people with mental disorders to just get over it, that's basically what CBT/DBT is

its just getting over it as best you can

Going cold turkey ?

I have numbing/disssocistion as an adaptive response to stress

You have an mental illness goy

Pay me

Yeah CBT is really great. Everyone has cognitive biases and it’s amazing to understand you’re always seeing a slice of the world or through a filter and you need to really examine your perceptions

That’s one reason why drugs that induce altered states of consciousness are so great. Once you understand how radically differently you can see the same world you will be much more understanding of the need to calibrate your perceptions
