Has therapy helped anyone?

[Anonymous]

i contend that in the short history of psychotherapy or whatever they call pyshologist's methods that noone has ever been healed.
That no dysfunction has been rectified ever through talking about it to a pyschologst/pyschiatrist. That the whole pseudoscience is absolute nonsense

it is however a fantastic method for a character in a tv show to reveal their thoughts to the audience.

Sometimes when someone explains things using just the right words with someone that has trouble figuring some things out, BINGO! They finally get it!! 🙂
For instance, take my boyfriend (who recently passed away suddenly) had AHHD he was born with but didn't learn he had it until he was 50. That was a huge eye opener for him. It explained why he was different than other people.
But I used to teach him things that nobody before me could make him understand. For instance. He loved to write on a particular website and he was a genius on there. His passion in life was astronomy and the universe, etc.
But he liked it when I would proofread his work before he submitted it. One day I noticed he wasn't using the apostrophe correctly or not at all. So, I explained how to use it. My words of explaining it to him made him soooo happy!!! My words got through to him and the lightbulb 💡went on! I made it easy for him. He couldn't thank me enough 🙂

Are you a Scientologist, an anti-Semite or simply uneducated? The "88" in your username gives a hint, but I still wanted to ask.

[Asker]

i dont like an religion germanguy, i tried to use nickname davafdo but it said it was already in use so i tapped a couple keys buti know what you're referring to and whilst i believe hitler was a christian hero im not stupid enough to think 88 has any significance to anything but idiocy.
by the way my alternate history question was banned for being offensive Despite never mentioning anyone or any group responible. So who could it offend?
And yes im an antisemite because i have enough sense to protect my own life from those who would end it if they could. Do you?

[DryGermanGuy]

For regular conspiracy nuts I have almost pity, because they are obviously stupid, but for antisemitic conspiracy scum like you I have nothing but hate.

[Asker]

firstly germanguy I've treated you with respect from the outset whilst you call me a nut and scum. So whose the better man?
Secondly any halfwit that has glanced at a history book knows that conspiracies are how historic events happen. People conspire to revolt and you have a revolution or a new king or what have you.
And lastly it is irrefutable fact that the race you refer to has been undermining christian societies for 2000 years.
Subverting/ sabotaging / killing en masse That is their whole agenda.
Of course i hate them. I have an iq higher than that of a potato. Do you?

The Health system was never designed for healing...

Yeah but only by letting me know my Mom is a narcissist..3 different psychologest said it so.. and she still says they are all crazy😂

But it helped cause it made me see reality and now I know how to handle her more.

[Asker]

everyone is a narcissist. It not a mental illness its human nature. As with everything claimed fact by this pseudo science its utter bullshit.
My mother was crazy too. there's no changing it. You just avoid crazy people until they get sick of being alone and are forced to figure shit out or remain a pariah

[Asker]

she was very good looking and vain and her head seemed to have disappeared up her own arse in that wonderland of beauty

[Opinion Owner]

No not true according to science.. but sure

[Asker]

science? pyschology didn't exist 100 years ago and has never been proved factual. Its just theories at best
According to science the world is millions of years old and we evolved from mud.
enough said

[ProbablyClueless]

I'd say it helped me

[Asker]

you were insane then after therapy became sane?

[ProbablyClueless]

I wasn't insane, I just hadn't figured out how to work through some personal baggage. Sometimes people have a hard time, identifying emotions and being okay with feeling them. My upbringing made it really tough to feel comfortable opening up about anything because the slightest emotional expressions were met with instant invalidation.

[Asker]

no idea what that means but im happy for you

[ProbablyClueless]

I know a really big self improvement moment for me was being able to identify the thing I was feeling and why I was feeling it. It takes a lot of work to understand that you don't always need to be able to logically justify a feeling for that feeling to be legitimate.

ok thumbs up
