Is therapy more or less about accepting how to deal with other peoples bullshit?

[Anonymous]

I'm just now realizing this.

I'll admit in my sessions I feel heard for once. Listened to and a little reassured.

Mst issues revolve around how people treated me being young and growing up.

I had a issue with a girl from work. I know what she did. And I want to confront her about it.

My therapist suggested not confront her at work but tell her something like I double checked my work even someone else did, I was right in my work, can you tell me what I can do to not make that mistake again?

Excuse me.. WHAT!!

Your therapist is right, why do you feel the need to risk your job because of stupid work drama? Therapy is beneficial depending on maturity and the less mature you are, the less you interrupt what your therapist is correctly. Therapy is a chance for you to discover your inner parts on why you react to your certain everyday surroundings. Mature up and instead of blaming your therapist because she didn’t tell you what you wanted to hear, listen to her advice because she doesn’t want you losing your source of income because you want to be immature during clock in hours

It’s important to find a therapist who relates to you and how are you would like to get through problems. Sometimes it’s making suggestions on how to handle a situation, other times it’s teaching you how to handle yourself and the wording you use when approaching others who are creating a stressor in your life.

It’s a good way of how to take a look in the mirror and be able to take constructive criticism and learn how to fix your personal issues rather than shift the blame onto others

Therapy is giving you skills to cope with stress and anxiety in general. It's not about other people it's about you improving you quality of life.

Sounds like a lot, therapy why what I understand is about yourself and identifying areas in your natural and how to work through them, (I may be wrong as I’ve never had therapy)

It's more like dealing with your own bullshit that people have dumped onto your plate.
