Mine just said, "You're right, but thinking about it isn't helping."

I countered with, "People not thinking about it is why we're here."

They replied with, "Yeah, probably."

"So what do I do?"

"What can one man do?"

"That's what I'm paying you for. What can I do?"

"🤷‍♂️ Maybe stop listening to Democrats."

Fucking hate Kentucky.

Also, I filed a complaint and didn't go back; their practice is now closed, but I don't know if it's just because they moved to a different location or if they genuinely had to stop practicing. Haven't really thought about it much.

    So does shitting in a hole in the ground.

    I don't know what I mean by this; I just let the universe guide my fingers when I'm on here.

    Circle of influence vs circle of concern. The answer still lies within you to be able to calibrate your mind to be able to live through a shit situation, and do what you feel able to improve it.

    Wow, ok, I don't know what I did to make you attack me with logical philosophies like this but I'm sorry, Christ.

    make you attack me

    Oof. Totally not an attack.

    Isn't this the point of therapy? That we can change out own world by working on how our brain perceives and processes it.

    I'm not 100% certain but this looks like one of those cases where a commenter jokingly says that they feel personally attacked but mean that they agree with what was said. Playing at oversensitivity for comedic effect.

    Getting more involved with community movements has helped me in this respect 100x more than my therapist did.

    It's not their fault, there's not that much they could've done for me anyway and they were very much on the same "were fucked this is all hopeless" boat as me.

    It's almost like the entire thing is some sort of scam to trick us into thinking that feelings of injustice is a sickness or something. Like someone somewhere would rather us just be okay with bad things happening around us to the point where they'd spend a significant amount of effort pushing pharmaceuticals and illicit substances to replace the chemicals we produce naturally when things are going well.

    I know that sounds crazy, but that's just how it seems sometimes. It's really weird.

    I mean, it's not like they're keeping track of people who have these disorders or anything.

    LOOKS AT U.S. GOVERNMENT

    I mean, why would they do that?

    LOOKS AT ALCATRAZ

    I'm sure it's fine, haha
