your questions are too generic, thread hidden and saged

>>34708175So you are experiencing a common problem with therapy that a lot of people go through. The common wisdom is to go through therapists like you’re dating in the 1950's and have the time and money for a new therapist every other day until you find a “good one” that you “vibe with.” Which is a problem when most of them are following the same cognitive behavioral therapy script. And this is a problem because the fundamental assumption behind CBT is that you are self aware enough to understand that you have the agency to consciously determine every reaction you have to any situation and any action you take at all times perfectly. How many anons do you think just don’t believe they can affect those things about themselves? You certainly don’t, you can but something tells me you wouldn’t believe it even if you were strapped into a chair and your eyes speculumed open Clockwork orange style and had it browbeaten into you for 17 hours a day.You can’t go back to a place you’ve never been, and you wouldn’t wheel a person born without legs out to the start line of a sprint with prosthetic legs in his lap and expect him to get up and sprint when he’s never walked in his life.
Did becoming Catholic help you the most? Maybe talk with a priest, get more involved with your church, make friends there or volunteer with church members to feel a sense of purpose

>>34708175Getting more serious about your religious practice will do you more good than any pill or diagnosis. Starting reading things like Boethius's Consolation of Philosophy and Kempis's Imitation of Christ, and spend at least 30 minutes every day in meditation.
