Therapy Experiences

[ReturnOfSaddam]

Has anyone here been to therapy? Did it help?

My parents tried to force me to go to it for drug addiction, but I didn't play ball. It's such fucking bullshit cope. I took drugs because they're fun and they pass the time, they legit made life worth living. How the fuck is paying someone to pretend to be my friend going to help me deal with that? Give me a fucking break.

It's treating a psychological, neurological problem like a physical one. If you go to a Doctor he can scan you or whatever, check for injuries and prescribe some medication or physiotherapy. But the same is NOT true for psychology. Laying out your problems for a psychoanalyst to deal with just isn't going to work in the same way.

The idea is to get you to realize that drugs are dangerous, and teach you to pursue other copes.

I am seeing a psychologist for cptsd, depression and anxiety, I have seen two through out my life and all I can say is they are more interested in judging the client and don't really offer anything more than someone to talk to, I only go to my appointments as its the only time I get to talk to someone in person , I don't really like the bloke as he is a bit feminine but it beats sitting in my caravan thinking about ending it and wondering if I am really real or is everything an illusion, I think I am slowly losing it, give it a shot you might find one that maybe able to help you, Good luck with your experience.

Earlier in the year I did, it was nice to have someone to talk to, but it didn't really help that much tbh. I'm just on meds now

 

[TheReaper]

Same.
I do self medication with weed and i told to my parents that i would take antidepressants rather than going to theraphy but ofc they said :that's not the kind of help you need.
So now i'm fucked and there are good chances they will report me if i keep smoking.

I've been to a lot of psychiatrists and psychologists, completely useless. They couldn't even diagnose that I was abused as a child, there was this counselor I met many years later, who was also abused as a child who told me.

Most psychologists and counselors don't even listen to any of the words you say, especially foids, they just read off a standard script to you an take your money. Psychiatrists are even worse, they just zone out then prescribe you some antidepressants or other jew pills at the end of the session.

Man you have to be one of the dumbest most bluepilled users on the entire fucking forum. Didn't you make a thread literallly asking redditors how to regain your lost youth as a 47 year old virgin? Why the fuck are you here?

 

[Gymcelled]

No I haven't. What's the point? There's no fancy combination of words that could fix my problems. Nothing that anyone could say to me would fix anything at all.

He’s not wrong. That's the idea behind therapy in your case. Not to solve your life's problems but to stop you from taking drugs for it. The efficacy of this method is another debate

 

[TheNEET]

I've tried psychologists and psychiatrists, useless shite unless you can get a prescription for benzos to chill out

I took drugs because they're fun and they pass the time, they legit made life worth living

so much this
that's the problem I face all the time: I want to change my life but my life is the way it is because it's logical for it to be that way
normies think that addiction is some external demonic possession, but it's usually a very logical coping mechanism
I can't get socially acceptable sources of dopamine, so I get it from socially unacceptable sources AKA internet, drugs etc. which normies call additive
I've tried to reduce my computer/internet usage many times only to find out, there's nothing else for me to do, LDARing in front of my PC is the most logical action to take given my circumstances

Therapy won't help you get a girlfriend, if you're ugly it's over and that's it. You may find ways to help manage anxiety/depression but it's not a given, obviously.

I had therapy and it didn't work for me, in fact i ended up developing a crush on my therapist. Made me want to go because a hot girl was talking to me every week but it didn't help in the long run. I just ended up more depressed because i realised nothing would happen between us.

Yeah he's not wrong about that in particular. But just an annoying ass poster.

Medication can kill the part that cares but then you live like a zombie, only cure would be having friends and girlfriends but if you are older than 22, 23 damage is already done.

Lol so fucking legit man. I really did feel sorry for my parents tbh. My mum was always like "What went wrong, what can we do to help, who can you talk to" but they just didn't fucking realise it was the logical conclusion. I'm sorry but when life is just wageslave torture for 8 fucking hours a day and women are such utter fucking cunts that they openly mock guys below 6ft/literally admit they are settling for you, who the fuck wants to settle down and get married anyway?

I'm exactly the same way regarding LDARing in from of the PC too. Tried other things...Just end up watching TV all day or whatever else. It's just the world we live in. Before the internet got so big it was PlayStation, before that TV, before that books.

And yeah benzos are pretty much one of the only decent medications on Earth. Those and amphetamines for ADHD. It's pretty hilarious that after so many centuries of medical science the best medications are still pretty the ones which get you fucked up. Literally the most basic "uppers and downwers" there are.

Lol it's a story as old as time. All hot therapists would do a much more worthwhile job if they'd just sleep with their clients.

I've been to therapy, sertraline and xanax for the first month and it felt really good, my mental was way clearer.

The moment I stopped taking those, I got WORSE than I was before I started them.

I guess they are designed to instill some sort of addiction so you keep coming back to buy them. Fucking cucks

 

[Autismus Maximus]

I was in therapy for "depression" for several years. Did fuck all. Turns out that it is perfectly normal to feel despondent if you're an autist and the world rejects you.

To explain to you how therapy works.
