I can't believe the scientific community of Lemmy is unfamiliar with the literature behind therapy.
laughs in Lacan.
This would be a great setup for a dark comedy.
Or a straight-up horror film. Just think about the incentive this creates.
Can't leave is hanging we need to hear it too!
A moth goes into a podiatrist's office...
Going to therapy is like going to shaman or crystal-ball damme: you don't know why but sometimes it works. Near to "always" you waste your resources and time and reveal shameful secrets to an unknown person.
I don't think those are therapists you've been seeing...
No, I've had similar experiences. If your experiences/perspectives are considerably outside the norm, many "shrinks" - who likely are among "the norm" - just don't get it. Never mind there's always some who are just there for the money - my mother was quite happy with hers because he told her what she wanted to hear, which ultimately caused more harm than good.
EDIT: Political/religious leanings also often play into how things go.
Absolutely this, I had one assigned therapist/* who really turned my life around and it was all because she'd been through the meat grinder when she was younger too.
I mean, maybe a bad therapist...Which I will fully admit there are A LOT of bad therapists out there.
Some of those crystal doms are real good, hot wax, rope, the whole bit. All my mommy issues were resolved in 6 sessions
Damme, dama, lady... I believed that "damme" was right (a game manufactured by Chinese used "Damme" in english)
Therapy? Seudoscience?

Well boys, it was worth a shot. Smile and wave, smile and wave.
Pretty much covers the entirety of the "thought" processes behind the current administration.
It's cute that you think "science" is what I do...
Well... if you get really good at what you do, then it's often said that you "have it down to a science."
Sadoscience*, it is what my maid does
This is an edit and not a footnote. Therefore the * comes before the word and not after.
^ This is a pe~~n~~dantic person doing their thing.
EDIT: fix erroneous spelling. I'd say it'll teach me to do this stuff when I'm too tired, but we all know that wouldn't be true.

Also I wonder is that spelling intentional pedant bait? Probably not, but it is in my head canon :)
Also I wonder if you're so deeply insecure that you spend your time trying to find ways to look down upon others to momentarily make yourself feel smug and superior. The problem with that approach is that it's like being addicted to drugs: the effect doesn't last, and becomes weaker every time - so you wind up doing it more and more in a pointless effort to regain the same high as the first time you did it, which only serves to make you seem like more and more of an asshole.
^ This is a person using OCD as an insult and helping to spread ableist language.
Oh, get over yourself. It was in no way an insult unless you're looking for it to be one. We all have our challenges - some more significant than others, of course - which makes being able to laugh at ourselves an important means of relieving the stress of those challenges.
I have ADD, depression, & some other mental challenges of my own. My spouse has several physical health issues (which cause additional mental health issues). Nobody understands or cares & we just have to deal with it.
I get the sensitivity to an extent, but you need to learn to distinguish between malicious intent versus those just trying not to take things too seriously (or in this case, trying to encourage someone else not to). None of us are perfect, and that includes you.
The important thing is that we try our best to not only get through this crappy excuse for a life ourselves, but also to help others do so when we can. My attempt to inject some mild humor into a situation where someone was being a bit overly condescending, while also having fun with the accidental double-post of a comment was just that - some light-heated poking of fun at something being taken too seriously.
Why would she say no she doesn't hear it all the time, and then say it's in the top 5 things she hears? I'm sure i must be misreading this somehow
I think it's like top 5 craziest beyond anything else they've heard thus far type of thing.
Huh, i suppose that's probably what they meant, but even with that interpretation already in my mind it's really hard for me to see how that's actually conveyed through what they wrote. Thanks for the info
The denial of the patient's assumption indicated by the word "no" should have steered you towards the proper/intended interpretation.
I swear, some people have failed so hard to raise their children that "no" remains a foreign concept in to adulthood... It's so utterly insane. (no I don't assume that over autism/etc usually but in this context?)
The fuck are you talking about? If anything i took the word no MORE directly than op was intending
No, you didn't. "No" meant, "no, your presumptive train of thought was incorrect." The rest of the text should've clued you in as to what was meant so long as you properly exclude what was assumed before the "no".
If this is still difficult for you, there are many resources out there to improve reading comprehension.
'I'm sure you hear this kind of thing all the time" ... "NO, ..."
