PLEASE GO TO THERAPY
I don't know how many threads I've read where people sound like they might have real psychological problems which a combination of therapy and medication can treat well. I don't want people to suffer, I don't want people to kill themselves, but most importantly, I don't want people with real problems going on the internet seeking advice from randoms who probably have many problems of their own. Please speak with a professional if you have a serious problem and you want to commit to getting better. And also get off 4chan. Thank you.
>>
That is true and is needed.
>>
>>34086764
Therapy is a scam for normies who just wanna rant to some stranger about their petty problems. People with real issues should seek psychiatric help. Or if you're like me, not crazy enough to be committed but too crazy to function in society, you're just fucked.

ok mr goldbergsteinowitz, i'll do that, please dm me your working hours

He's just upset no one justified his reason to stay inside while everyone else is living a life.

To clarify, I don't want people to get on zog medications en masse but the reality is some actually need it to function, and it is simply irresponsible to talk about your psychological issues on a website where literally 50% of replies tell you to consider suicide as a real solution. Either way, even if you go to psychotherapy, the drugs are entirely optional, you have free will, if you express to your doctor that you'd prefer not to take them then they will find other solutions for you. That is, if simply talking with them doesn't help, which I'm sure it will.

I am a dark psychologist myself, I am a rogue therapist who wanders the world without a clinic. Some may call me an armchair psychologist, but this armchair of mine is made of spikes and fire, I am le sigma sycologist.

Hmm... OP you seem to demonstrate an excessive care taking impulse, yes... Perhaps you feel overly responsible for the actions or even inaction of others. You've long felt burdened by this yet you simutaenously feel you would be a 'bad person' if you did nothing. Almost like... You'd feel it'd be your fault if bad things happen around you, am I right? Hm?

I wonder where did you learn this, hm.. where could have little lamby OP gotten lost? Where he was among a group of people, people who caused chaos and he could only but helplessly watch unless he bleated out to get them to stop. School perhaps... No, family? Does my dark sigma psychological vision hit the mark OP?

That will be $100 + tax OP.

You're right, OP, it could benefit many people. But I've been to therapy for more than 10 years, I think I'm just too broken. Not writing this to discourage anyone from getting help though.
>>
OP is not really looking out for us. He is just saying I'm normal you all are not. Had he actually put in the effort he would be giving suggestions not shit talking with the other people here. Absolute elitism.

I understand there is a point and value in therapy for some people and problems but me specifically I’d rather kill the people I hate that are the cause for my hate then pay some liberal money to talk until I agree with them that being angry is wrong and no wholesome

Most do not help, it's just a way to make money. Unless you have something like an adhd prescription then you're better off spending your money on copes.

>Most do not help, it's just a way to make money.
I've never understood this retarded talking point. Do you have any clue what the requirements are for being a therapist? Firstly you have to get a bachelors, then a masters, then depending on the state you have to complete 1000-2000 hours of supervised clinic rotations in order to qualify for your license. This equates to around 60-80k of student loan debt then 7-10 years of schooling and post-graduate exams and clinic work. The reward? A median salary of 59,000 a year. The idea that therapists are all just grifters in it to make money is a dogshit 4chan talking point designed to encourage autists to continue blaming everyone else for their problems and avoiding any mechanism at self-improvement. As long as DA JEWS are controlling therapy you can continue being a dumbfuck autistic loser who makes excuses for why he can never get better.

Then let me clarify, it's a way to make money for the medical industry that has tons of subpar drugs with side effects that need selling. I tried multiple depression drugs, ones did nothing, one gave me permanent emotional dampening, twitches for months, and some brain damage. Lots of psychiatrists are also just taking bribes or involved in trafficking (if they can deem you unable to take care of yourself it's basically jail for law abiding citizens, bonus you get forced drugs. The ward I went to literally did the graping on site.). Just some time ago, lobotomies used to normal, the dude won a nobel prize for inventing it. But nowadays we know that was terrible and unethical and did not work, other than emotionally deadening and making the patient not think about it. Modern psych meds do the same, most just make you numb and dumb. Unless it's something like schizo or adhd, psych meds don't help. Talking about problems 99% of the time does not fix them, only useful if you're a louse who wants attention or confession. Yes anon please tell me how talking about the terrible and unfair things that happened to me will help.

FACTS

>>34088153
Here is what you get with therapy anons
>Cancelled appointments.
>Drugs being pushed as the solution.
>Deflection of guilt rather than addressing.
Every time I have heard of a friend's therapy stories it is never genuine. It's always now someone appeasing some shitty world view, especially while it is unhealthy.
in b4
"Therapists are another human being who cares about you"
BS. You are a cog in the machine, you disappear?
Three million other saps take your place out of desperation to not scream in a void over getting some shitty positive affirmation from a person they think is smarter than them.
Don't fall for it.

Therapy is female centric. If you’re a man you’ll likely find it a complete waste of time.

>>34086764
I've gone to therapy and the conclusion of my psychiatrist is apart than renewing my neetBux every 2 years there is nothing he can do for my case.
>>
>>34087004
>But I've been to therapy for more than 10 years, I think I'm just too broken.

Hey anon I hope you are still around. I’ve been there and know the feel. The big secret for that problem is wanna share is because your mind isn’t broken, thats why the psychiatrist or psychologist cannot help. It’s your spirit that’s broken, that’s why issues persist even after working on your mind. Broken spirits require spiritual assistance. Do with that information what you will. God bless

I get what you mean, but most thinkers agree faith is a gift of God, not something you earn by your own volition. I'm no longer gifted it.
>>
i can tell based on who's getting replies itt that this thread only exists to troll. do better.
>>
>>34086764
I don't need advice, I'm here to hammered in reality with no lube, therapy won't tell you how fucked you are, it's all "If you better yourself, face your demons, you'll get what you want in life"
No, some people are fucked and need to work with what they got.
>>
>>34088640
>I get what you mean, but most thinkers agree faith is a gift of God, not something you earn by your own volition. I'm no longer gifted it.

Correct, it's gifted. And the thing about gifts and gift giving is in order to get the specific gifts you seek is you need to ask for them. Otherwise no one knows which gift it is you want. And God knows all, so He may know yet He won't give it. Because He's waiting for the question, and while that might seem trivial to man it is not trivial to God. Because asking is a choice, and by choosing to ask Him, you choose Him. Because God is one of free love, and that is only something that can be chosen, never taken or imposed. Because your free will has immense value to God and He's rather see you keep that, because that too was a gift, and God never takes Gifts back. So you've one gift, free will. All you gotta do is use that one to ask for the second, the gift of faith.

The only whisper in yourself that may prevent you "I don't deserve it". It comes from the enemy, it can be safely ignored. Truth is, none of us do. Yet God gives it anyway, because it's the antidote to the poison we often find ourselves drinking. Give it some thought brother, and again God bless.
>>
No and no, no thank you :3
>>
>>34088702
I grew up in a religious family, I've long asked for faith. Of course there were things distracting me from it (wordly pleasures, rational thinking), but bottom line, it didn't really workout for me. I appreciate your kindness though.
>>
>go to therapist for self hatred and mild suicide ideation
>try to explain my problems but I suck at expressing myself
>therapist just makes up how he thinks I feels and gives me bullshit advice
>just go outside and talk to people bro
>just read the 12 rules to life bro
>just talk to your family about your problems bro
I am of more help to myself, reading Nietzsche is better than spending $10k on therapy a year.
>inb4 bro you have to go to 30 different therapists to find the right one
>>
>>34088775
No problem. And I'll leave you with a key piece of info that may help, my intent isn't to bark and yap until you are somehow magically converted (faith never works this way lol). Just wanna leave at your feet every took you may use it may not use or may remember for later simply because I would like to and wished I knew back in the day.

I have faith in God. I also have worldly pleasures and rational thinking too. Yes even the worldly pleasures you and I and God understands to be sinful. My weaknesses did not vanish when gaining faith, I still have the enemy's hook's very much in my being. What I fell for, was my own pride. That I thought it impossible to have faith & sin in the same court. Turns out that's exactly what is supposed to happen, problem was I was too restless waiting for the trial to end, I thought I had to be 100% sinless otherwise it's all for nothing. That's not how it goes brother, the trial is life long. But the second you put yourself on the side of the aisle where faith rests through conscious choice (no feelings or thought required), that's it. You gain untold spiritual strength. You will still fall, just as Christ fell carrying the cross. But instead of laying down and staying down, you receive the power to get back up and keep going. That's the one thing that takes the broken spirit and rejoins it back to wholeness. That whole spirit will still suffer from the rain of sin, but never will it break again. And there exists no therapy or psychological model that can come close to giving this to people, only God can.

Thank you for the kind thoughts.

I spent 6 months in therapy and all it did was put me in to massive amounts of debt. I fucking wish she was god damn dead.

>>34086764
I spoke with a therapists for 3 months. I got told what I already knew, and got a massive bill.
Would you be able to offer me a refund OP?

Never go to therapy anons, the people shilling this shit are often "therapists" themselves, which are grifters. These parasites need to get a real job, starve them out.

IGNORE THERAPY POSTERS AS THEY ARE MOSTLY THERAPISTS SHILLING THEIR GRIFT
>>
>>34086771
Nah they're both scams and one needs to go the introspection + interfacing with society route, trial and error, til they understand themselves and society. Sometimes therapoo or shrinks can catalyse the process but often it's a false positive and one needs to learn the hard way to get real results
>>
great more astroturfing from therapists.

EVERYONE ONLY GO TO 4CHAN FOR HELP, WE CAN SOLVE EVERYTHING. THERAPISTS JUST WANT UR MONEY
>>
>>34086764
Yeah, I probably should go. Or more aptly I should've gone years ago, I feel like I wasted years of my life in the same mental ditch (which led to many life issues) which only now I feel I'm getting myself out of.
I wasn't even afraid of going since I think they're trying to scam me or the rest of the FUD people say, as I truly think they could've helped me. But that's kinda the point, right? They'd have been helpful, but I was somebody who just was focused on making that ditch bigger and bigger. The few times I did reach out I'd have self sabotaged.
I now, well, don't feel the need to do that anymore. I see I worried about some things too much, and overall for the position I'm in that I didn't warrant doing that to myself.
But, now it just feels like the only time I can get myself to go is the one time I don't actually need it
