Bogus therapy and therapy cows Anonymous 04/27/22 (Wed) 03:23:34 AM No. 1149837 [Reply]

Hello, it has occurred to me that a lot of us really have had horrible experiences with therapists and the psychology field in general. This thread is to discuss exactly that, either from personal experience or the way people have seemingly gotten worse after "therapy" (like Pixielocks). Discuss away.

>What really bothers me is not having connections to find a good career or help me out if I'm ever in trouble.
Some therapists can help with that but you need to find someone that helps you learn to apply the correct techniques for your problems, not just talk therapy. You need to be firm and clear about your goals. My CBT psychologist as an advice told me to never go to anyone that only or mainly does psychotherapy, because that's never as effective as the structure other types of therapies can give you.

Sorry to say this, but: Psychologists trying to analyze art with absolutely zero background or real interest in art and design are complete fucking idiots, specially if they're the type of pushy idiot that thinks an erased line means you're erasing your soul or some shit like that. It feels like magical pseudoscience to me. If you tell them something is blue because you like blue they overanalyze it because everything must have a hidden meaning. It's never that deep, and the meaning you the creator assign to it has more merit than whatever they as an onlooker have to say about it. It's not high art anyway. The worst part is when they think they're absolutely always right and can never hear the other part out because fuck you I'm the therapist here kek.

Why is therapy the only field where nobody dares discuss iatrogenic harm?
If you complain about the chiropractor who wasn't really qualified and ended up giving you hard back pain for five months, everyone will sympathise with you and report the chiropractor for malpractice. But god forbid you vent about how the therapist told you you deserved to be molested as a kid or started giving retarded christtard "forgiveness is the best" advice and you're the villain because "they just wanted to help!!"
Also I don't care if it makes me a negative avoidant narc or whatever new buzzword is trending but anyone who needs to hear "omg fr ur feelings are so valid" is a grade A retard. So what? Just because they're valid doesn't mean you should be acting and thinking on them. You wouldn't tell a schizophrenic who's going through an episode this because you'd be affirming their delusion. If I have some irrational anxiety about stupid shit, telling me that would only make me believe the stupid shit and hence that wouldn't be very helpful, would it?

Anonymous 07/31/25 (Thu) 11:00:53 PM No. 2631127

I wish people would say what they really meant when they say "go to therapy". Just say "you're a retarded faggot" or "kys" like the rest of us. It's the best way of invalidating anyone's problems. Uh huh, going to therapy is gonna totally help with an issue that has nothing to do with mental health

Dutchfag thread #1 Anonymous 05/29/22 (Sun) 03:20:27 PM No. 1201446 [Reply]

I know that threads dedicated to specific countries are technically banned, but the Suomillanka, North Africa and German threads are fine and since I've been seeing a lot of Dutchfags (perhaps summerfags, who knows) I thought a Dutchfag thread could be fun. Especially since we have a lot of cows, whether it's on tv or just social media. Also, feel free to discuss anything fun! Like music, food, Dutch habits/manners. Vent about the housing crisis, overregulation, Americanisation, all of it!

Major cows:

Family de Mol
>Johnny the Mol beats up his wife multiple times, allegedly daddy paid all witnesses 5000 euros and gave his wife a house in Ibiza so she would shut her mouth.
>Knew about the Voice kids scandal (multiple children and teens were molested and some even raped), did not do anything at all.
>John de Mol has control over the public television, does not allow criticism on him or any associates.

Marco Borsato
>Singer, former coach for the Voice Kids.
>Molested 2 girls (if not more), one was 15, the other 13 at his home barbecue (which was for the participants of the Voice Kids).
>Keeps acting like it's all untrue despite evidence.

Millennials started it but I hate how they normalised pop psychology and "therapy" as a shill for every issue in one's life. Of course being a lead brained boomer who says mental illness isn't real while punching walls isn't any better but there's a weird god complex that zoomers have when it comes to therapy. It's like slapping a bandaid onto a gunshot wound whenever they offer it as "advice".
>Omg get help fr
>Go to therapy u have problems babe
>Stfu literally no one does this go get therapy
And the reason is never someone with an actual mental problem, it's just someone disagreeing with their black and white mentality, some person decided to make a rant about their shitty community, or economic issues, or anything literally normal that doesn't fit their worldview. It's always the retarded upper middle class zoomers who use "go get therapy!!1!" as an insult or le owned gotcha.

Omfg the way they answer of they have sex often, they need a razzie for that shit. I love the way that the interviewer kind of bullies her a bit, she deserves it. But it's awful for the second woman who was duped into marrying her gay husband because they thought she could "cure" him. I love her perspective on her ex-husband though, she is pretty based. I honestly have always resented homophobes not just for the fact that they are intolerant, but they don't seem to care about the harm closeted/down low men cause to women. Even now, nobody seems to care how a husband coming out of the closet seems to affect their wives. But i do think a lot of pickmes seem to turn off their gaydars whenever a male is nice to them out of desperation. it just sucks that this kind of thing still happens no matter how normalised being gay is, hence why it still seems fresh even in 2025.

The less I drink, the harder it is to stand people who drink for fun. Nothing against people being drunk, but people who go out to drink for fun somehow have endless money to spend on overpriced drinks, but if you ask them if they want to do something substantial like go to a concert, museum, faire, restaurant etc then they are always broke. Everything revolves around the instant gratification of getting drunk and spending too much money while drunk on drinks, then never having money for anything else. And I'm not talking about people who use it as an excuse to not do other things, just about people with shite handling of money. Like I know they actually want to do those things with me. but whoops, they just blew their whole budget in the bar last weekend so they cant do anything this weekend.
