Every negative emotion I have, I’m told to go to therapy.

Negative emotions are human!

Why have we, as a society, grown to fear them?

      Yeah, a toxic system that is coloring my perspective on that toxic system?

      I think therapy can be very helpful for people. If it’s helped you, that’s great!

      However, nothing is above criticism, and to put anything above criticism is really dangerous.

        Maybe start with that the next time and think about what can happen when you just open your mouth and spew general falsehoods.

          Can you state the general falsehoods please?

          Edit: I think your view of therapy might be a little bit irrational if you’re responding this emotionally to any criticism.

            I think you are reading into things and getting information that’s not there.

            Implying I’m being emotional is quite the projection.

              I explained my argument and I also provided a link to demonstrate it’s happening. The information is literally there. And I’m not saying EVERY therapist is profit-maximizing reality denier, just stating there is a definite pull in that direction.

              I also respect that your experience in your country might be very different than mine. Yet you assume your knowledge of what goes in your country puts you in a position to definitely disprove my experience in my country.
