Venting Took a break for a while from this site, now coming back to tell you therapy doesn’t work

It's all a big hoax. A scam. Therapy didn't do anything.

I agree. The only thing that could heal us is : a full brain reset. Impossible of course...
That's why I don't want to see any doctors anymore.

 

[Hvergelmir]

That's a very generalized take...

While I've not had it work for me either, I wouldn't dismiss an entire field like that.

I don't even see the point in going to therapy anymore, I'm so glad I quit. All therapy did was make me feel slightly good for an hour and give me a chance to complain. Nothing can rewire my brain, and I don't need to pay $150 an hour to realise that.

Exactly! It's time we wake up and begin to not take bullshit from these miserable little parasites on the state!
Most of them are just mentally ill people in denial anyways, and they think they can get some catharsis from peddling brainwashing and bullshit to others of their kind instead of the thing we really need- the sweet release of death!

Therapy just wants you to become functional again for the system...

It's also so therapists can make loads of money off of wasting your time.

I half agree. I've been to 4 therapists and a lot of them invalidated my concerns and gave me overly simplistic solutions like "dear, why don't you just stop the overthinking before it starts?" Yes Deborah! Idk why my retarded ass didn't think of that!! Crazy how our mind works?

You can't talk or think your way out of mental illness. You cure it by spending time with people you care about, laughter, leaving toxic environments, being your authentic self, and experiencing nature. And even then depression is a normal part of life, the deep empty feeling in your chest allows you to feel compassion and appreciate the moments of joy when you have them. Life isn't always going to be sunshine and rainbows and while you're here you need to take the good with the bad.

No therapist would've ever told me anything like this, otherwise they'd lose their jobs.

Been in therapy for 3 years so far doesn't work. I started emdr therapy recently though so not sure if that's helpful yet
