How can a stranger teach you about yourself? It seems like a gift to me.
@Dimitris_Half
July 10, 2024 at 6:07 pm
@angryhairpeice They don’t teach you anything. You basically talk, and talk and pick up on the inconsistencies of your arguments and what you are trying to hide, and ask you clever questions.
And you later reflect on them on your own, and reach new conclusions

I don’t feel like I need therapy so I won’t either spend tons of money on it which would make me more sad than happy afterwards OR take precious spaces for therapy from our public health system that other people really need way more than me.
Just go out into the world, into nature, feel the sunshine and the wind and really enjoy this and all the other little things in life. If you can’t do that, then you might need a therapy indeed. As long as you can, you’ll be fine. :-)

@angryhairpeice hahahahaha, that was a good one
But all jokes aside, that’s the point. A mechanic asks about the problems of your car to get an overview. The doctor asks about your injury or illness to get a first idea, and the therapist asks you about your inner turmoil. That’s literally their job

therapy is the capitalistic replacement for the need of authentic social relationships. Capitalism is growing like a cancer killing everything we had and were happy with.
