10 years ago the common belief was that only loonies would go to therapy. Or at least thats what I thought.
Now fucking everyone seems to go like its nothing. Out of a group of 8 friends, 6 of them go to therapy. Only me and another friend of mine dont go.
Have in mind that all these friends of mine are all in their mid 20's, their families have good economic positions, they all drive brand new cars and do whatever the fuck they want. They are literally the top 5% of this shitty country we live in.
Why tf are they even sad or anxious for?? It makes me mad. They are ridiculous weak retards and it seems that its widespreading along my age group.

Their families likely drive them bonkers. If people would just see the benefit of sitting on a meditation cushion or on a chair and confronting the discursive nature of their thoughts. Ultimately what happens is in those sessions of meditation the judgmental analytical component of the Mind becomes disabled and you're just able to be. Pills might be able to emulate that experience to some degree but it's not permanent and we know what pharmaceutical companies are all about don't we. Great book Professor Ann Harrington mind fixers.

If you're stressed out if you're experiencing anxiety learn to meditate it's fucking free and it works. The end.

I think the thought process is that going to therapy helps them develop emotional intelligence. They are better able to understand the way they see themselves, perhaps the ways that they self-sabotage, and also the best way to interact with their families and romantic partners. That’s not completely crazy IMO but I’m not sure if it rings true. I know a fair few people who have therapists that seem to just feed their bullshit and they become more insufferable.
When I was in college I went to the free counseling services and saw 4 different ones over the course of a few years. I have a family history of depression, I was a college athlete and had to drop out of the sport I loved because of a career ending injury, and I had an ex gf who cheated on me, so those were my reasons for going. They prescribed me medication twice but I decided not to take it and pulled myself up with exercise and enforcing strict daily routines. I’m glad I did it that way because I feel it’s made me much tougher and more self-sufficient.

Political tensions, sexual competition, lack of meaning, lack of purpose, cognitive dissonance, etc.

It's almost like demonizing people for having a mental illness is becoming less acceptable and people feel more comfortable seeking help for their mental health even if it's just a little depression or anxiety. Just because you have an outdated perception that mental Healthcare is only for "loonies" doesn't mean that getting help for mental problems is somehow bad now. You've surrounded yourself with mental ill people OP because you're probably mentally ill and definitely a fucking faggot.
Maybe you're the one that needs therapy senpai

Thanks for the reminder leafbro. I seem to conveniently forget that drinking only exacerbates my stress whenever I start. Kind of a shitty cope.
Go find somewhere quiet outside, too.

Therapy was socially popular in the 60's and 70's.

The vast majority of therapists are retarded morons indoctrinated into kikeish bullshit.
Therapy is a meme and a scam.

Not even once, I don't know how the therapy industry is in your country, user, but here, 95% of the fucking therapists are mentally broken themselves. You cannot help others if you are not strong yourself. There was a book in japan that warned young people about never taking advice from people who haven't made it, only from "sages" who have proven themselves, I wish that was a common practice around the world.

I work in the mental health field in a leadership role. Modern therapy should not exist.
>should not
Just like schools and hospitals "shouldn't" exist. Your parents "should" have a library at home and your community teach you what you need for life organically. But we don't live in the ideal world.
A therapist is indeed a friend that you pay for. You pay for them to listen to you and support you and give useful feedback. Talking to someone who has this kind of caring connection with you is de facto helpful. Maybe it "should be" a great uncle, or other community figure who you see time to time and trust to keep your confidence and have your interest at heart.
Many therapists get into the field because they are naturally caring people. And their connection with you is authentic, despite having structure.
Also, many times you get a therapist you don't connect with, and will need to go find another. That should be expected. Therapists are just people, and that's an essential part of what makes therapy useful.

You'll get over this phase eventually brother. Life will get better and meeting about da joooz on the internet will lose its luster and maybe you'll actually accomplish something that makes da jooooz seethe and you can take satisfaction in knowing you've graduated from shitposting on Any Forums to actually doi ng something with your life

Oh yeah, don't be surprised if it's harder for you to get a job because your employer found out you answered "yes" when a shrink asked you if experience suicidal thoughts or something

No way all of them got abused. I know most of their parents, most are good people. I would even consider that sone of them were way too permissive and chill desu
