I Think I'm Going To Look For A Therapist (hexbear.net)

I'm going to find a professional out there in my area who can listen to all my concerns about stuff like diagnosing/dealing with AuDHD, talking about dealing with family stuff, and just my general desire to be a better person/communicate better. I don't think I can just indefinitely keep my problems inside the way I've been doing.

Don’t be too humble. Many of them need more help than that patient. So many going to therapy themselves and think “hey I can do that too”.

Idk about anybody else but CBT amounts to some sneering fuck saying “just stop thinking that” for a couple of days wages.

“just stop thinking that”

I hate it when people do that. I could get that kind of service for free at home.

It’s bad when the toxic family and friends give better contextual advice.

Don’t want to scare you off getting help. A lot of Dr Phil’s to sieve your way through.

Yeah, I know. But at least there's no yelling from said family giving advice. 😔
