Hey /r9k/. I guess I need some help and perspective. I'll just spill it, in a sense.Whenever I'm upset about anything, I remind myself: my life is better than most other people's. Everyone on earth feels sad sometimes. So really, my problems aren't a big deal. Everyone has them, and everyone deals with them. So I should just fix them on my own, and not make a deal out of them, or annoy people.But when I tell this to my therapist, she says I should give my problems more weight, and that I should have people to talk to. Whenever I talk about my problems, I feel like I'm being arrogant. My life is better than most others.So why should I have the right to feel sad?What do you think?
>>83668560therapists make money off u having problems, so what do you think?and do u see any negative consequences from maybe bottling up your feelings? if not, then you're just smart and don't allow fickle issues to ruin ur lyfe like the average person
>>83668560i guess i dont know how mentally handicapped you are but how do you view the world like this
>>83668560this >>83668570 anon is right, and furthermore, your therapist will always try to disagree with you. i can assure you, if you didnt do this and gave your problems too much importance, they would tell you to do what you're doing right now
>>83668586youre really so cute anon
>>83668560I have some superficial problems that I know are meaningless in the bigger picture. I don't worry about them much because so many people I know have much more serious and impactful problems. I try to keep it in perspective and not let my dumb stuff bother me.
>>83668602i really am not
>>83668625why would u say such a thing about my favorite boy???
>>83668628i am not cute and i am worthless, but what i said about therapists is true
>>83668633you are wrong. you are a sweet boy. and i know because only sweet boys are so worried about being "worthless" and what not.
>>83668658ummmmmmmmmm hmmm i would like to think i will be sweet one day again, after i get back on my feet
>>83668669what needs to change before you think you're back on your feet again?
>>83668671i need to become a functional adult
>>83668560>>83668560just FYI, this guy, or now girl, trooned out years ago.
>>83668691why aren;t you? are u a neet
>>83668717yes, i am right now and its killing me inside
>>83668731its okay. job market sucks but keep applying. i hope u are very proud of yourself once employed, even if ur just some poverty wagie
>>83668746im not, thats what hurts me the most. but thank you anon, you sound very nice...
>>83668765sorry i'm kinda drunk u just sounded so based and i hate that u self loathe cuz ur better off than 99% of retards on this site
>>83668560Suffering is not something that should be compared. You as a human are allowed to suffer. There's an old phrase people used to repeat, "children in africa are starving so what right do you have to complain?" And I've always found that to be retarded because if you prick you finger and bled for example, your first reaction would be to say ouch, not to think about the idea of someone else's problems that you don't know.The fact to me that you feel arrogant shows that you really aren't on the inside, so vent away anon. That's what r9k is for
>>83668779op's therapist / 3 letter agent trying to affirm his shill:
>>83668769anon, ill tell you something. most of the time, if a person has to deal with lots and lots of suffering, they will have to make a choice. they can either hate the world or they can hate themselves. some hate both, but people usually choose one of those. i would rather hate myself for not being able to stand up for myself, for not chasing whatever dreams i had, for living in inaction. drink some water and eat a piece of bread so you dont get a hangover.
>>83668560>What do you think?If you want to solve your problems you need to acknowledge them first.Why do you go to therapy in the first place? Court order?>So I should just fix them on my own, and not make a deal out of them, or annoy people.Help helps. This is why anonymous acholocics etc exits. I know people who solved such problem themselves, I know people who admitted the problem and asked for family help and support and dried up, I have close one who died form this problem.Help helps, no harm from asking to solve problems if you aim to solve them. You though may have another goals and game around problems.
>>83668696Is he still alive, or did he rope himself?
>>83668560Man I miss this guy's videos. It's a real shame he trooned outAnyways OP, I think what you say is only half true. Yes, there's a lot of problems to be had that are just minor inconveniences. But you need to learn the difference between a minor inconvenience and something that you would legitimately benefit from getting help about. You have a right to feel sad. Everyone does. Life is not a suffering olympics where only the gold medalist deserves help. We are put on this earth to help each other, and you shouldn't feel guilty for needing to reach out every so often. Bottling things up only ever leads to more suffering.
