Deconstructing Psychiatric Diagnoses

Posted on by

Based on my past experience both as a therapist and client in the mental health field, I have learned that when therapists or psychiatrists give you the following diagnoses all too often here is what they really mean: 

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder:  Your obsessive nature is thwarting my compulsion to reorganize your life.

Paranoid Personality Disorder:  The way I perceive you staring at me when I ask you extremely personal questions about the most painful experiences in your life really makes me uncomfortable.

ADHD:  Your teachers don’t understand you, your parents suck, and I am on their side.

Bipolar Disorder:  You’re going through a rough time, and now that I’ve found a biologically inherent justification for it, your insurance company will allow me to bill all year for your sessions.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder:  I didn’t spend nine years getting this damn license just to listen to you blather on about YOU YOU YOU.  How about ME for a change?

Antisocial Personality Disorder:  You sicko — you actually DO the things my husband masturbates about on the internet.

PTSD:  Since I can’t bill your insurance company for just writing “PTS,” I’ll compromise with psychiatry and add that little “D” to the end…

Generalized Anxiety Disorder:  There doesn’t seem to be anything noticeably wrong with you, but you are here so you must be fucked up somehow.

Histrionic Personality Disorder:  If you keep pushing it, sweetie, I’m going to diagnose you Borderline.  So lower your voice, okay?

Cocaine Dependence:  Fool!  Adderall is legal, cheaper, covered by your health insurance, and works on the same neural pathways!

Anorexia:  They’re models on television.  You’re not.

Dependent Personality Disorder:  We both need to accept that psychotherapy was never intended to last indefinitely.  Well….unless of course you can pay full-fee, in which case I can cook up a more serious diagnosis for you…

Avoidant Personality Disorder:  Thank God you pay out of pocket, because your insurance company doesn’t allow me to bill for all your missed sessions.

Alcohol Dependence:  I probably drink just as much as you do, but since you’re paying and I have a degree I might as well pin an extra label on you.

Dissociative Identity Disorder:  I know, everyone else has diagnosed you with schizophrenia, but I want a really juicy case to present at next year’s conference…

Münchausen Syndrome by Proxy:  Finally I get a chance as a therapist to treat someone who’s just like my mother!!

    • And watch out for their “Diagnosing” –
      They can’t see anything worth a damn –
      They’re just sizing you up in a nasty way –
      With their picky-picky-ever-so-sticky DSM –

        • Psychiatry is an insult to science –
          How so?

          BECAUSE IT’S NOT SCIENCE!!!

          So what’s all this talk about them about them having found a genetic link to all their crazy “Disorders”?
          That’s just the latest example of their junk science – where they grasp at ANYTHING they see. And lately they’ve jumped on the Genetic Bandwagon! So now they’re blaring their very own genetic horn – and hitting all the wrong notes, as usual.

          Science is held in high regard, as it should be. Psychiatrists want to be card-carrying members of this deservedly esteemed club; they think this would give them the credibilty they sorely lack.

          But Psychiatry isn’t science, nor is it an “art”, (as the most self-deluded would have you believe). It’s a shitload of wrongheaded psychological theories, dangerous pharmacuetical tinkering, all led by a staggering number of mindless “Psychiatric Diagnoses/Disorders” –

          Psychiatrists should stop pining after science – it’s like an ill-fated romance they can’t get over –
          But their scientific dalliances do serve a purpose; it sheilds them from reality – emotional reality – the kind of reality they’re ill-equipped to handle in any meaninful way. And getting immersed in science is like putting their heads in the sand –

          And what affects emotional reality? Childhood trauma – primarily – as well as horrific tragedy, difficult circumstances, and the vicissitudes of daily living.

          So meaningful answers aren’t to be found in “biological science” – not in any stupid lab test, not in any cruelly indifferent statistic or study, not in any fantastically dazzling magnetic imaging, and ESPECIALLY NOT not in any zombifying psychiatric “drug” –

          Answers are found in the act of living – in serious reflection, valid consideration and fair minded compassion –

                • CLOSE UP SHOTS –

                  People who look at others through diagnostic lenses need to get another outlook on life –

                  And as for why people would want to “diagnose” others in the first place is anyone’s guess –
                  So here’s one –

                  “Diagnosing” is their way of overcompensating for difficulties in their early lives. It gives them a feeling of mastery. But these feelings – while good – have a way of blinding them to the bigger picture –

                  Why are psychiatrists and therapists so hung up on “diagnoses”?
                  Because without them their whole world would fall apart –

                  SUBJECTIVE OPINION –
                  Doubt that?

                  Then trace back as you follow the logic from –

                  What’s your problem with therapy and therapists?

                  The fact that it’s an artificial relationship based on a power imbalance and is established and maintained through financial means are my reasons for concern.

                  I fail to see how these dynamics create anything resembling a healthy relationship between adults. A power imbalance by its very nature only serves to foster a client’s dependence, a dependence intensified by therapists who are trained to view themselves as the experts rather than their clients. This kind of dynamic can lead to clients getting stuck living out a therapist’s narrative rather than following their own instincts and intuition. And while this dynamic is by no means limited to psychotherapeutic relationships, society’s relentless promotion of therapy as the ideal only serves to further such dependence.

                  Another drawback is the mistaken notion that the benefits psychotherapy are the sole province of psychotherapy. This only serves those who stand to benefit financially and professionally, which should be a source of concern, but this is not the case.

                  It seems therapists have had their greatest success promoting themselves more than anything else. Their genius for creating needs where none exist while satisfying their own is nothing less than remarkable. However, in spite of such resourcefulness, therapists fail to see how clients would be best served knowing that therapy is by no means the only way to health. But therapists reluctance and/or failure to inform clients of such vital information can only be explained by the fact that they’ve a financial incentive, which only proves their motives are selfish –

                  And of this I have no doubt –

                • HERO WORSHIPPED –

                  Why is seeing a therapist a bad idea?

                  Because therapists think THEY know you better than YOU know you, because therapists are trained to think therapists know better than anyone who isn’t a therapist –

                  But it’s also because therapists, no matter how thoughtful and considerate they may seem, have the following:

                  Massive egos –
                  Manipulative natures –
                  Exploitive and greedy characters –
                  And harbor an intense but unconscious desire to be seen as “the savior,” or “the hero” –

                  And what does all this mean?
                  That therapists are people to avoid IN EVERY POSSIBLE WAY –

                WRONG TIME
                ALWAYS A CRIME

                “Being vulnerable” is way oversold –

                What do you mean? Therapists say being vulnerable is healthy –

                Being vulnerable is healthy – but only with the right people –

                And who are the right people?

                Well it isn’t therapists –

                Then who is it?

                It’s not people you have to pay, and it’s not people you can’t get to know well personally, which leaves the old standbys called close friends, and if you’re lucky, family –

                So therapists aren’t trustworthy?

                No. Why would trust someone who’s required to label you, or can force you to take “medication”, or maybe even lock you up against your will in some so-called “treatment facility” for an indefinite period of time? And this can happen to anyone –

                Wow…so why do therapists want you be vulnerable?

                Because it sells well and pays even better, in other words, “being vulnerable” makes people vulnerable/susceptible to a therapist’s manipulative machinations. And in case you hadn’t noticed, the word “vulnerable” has proven to be an especially marketable word on the publicity circuit, making the pushiest and most publicity-crazed “therapists” mouth it every time they turn on a microphone –

                • CARRIED AWAY –

                  Therapists love the word “vulnerable”. They’ve even made it a buzzword. They got carried away because they think it makes them sound convincing, when all it really means is being unguarded with the people you trust – which, btw, shouldn’t be therapists. But the word “vulnerable” fits right in with the rest of therapists’ touchy-feely garbage routine, and really adds to their generally touchy-feely brand of creepiness –

                • LIE, LIE OR PACIFY???

                  Hi! What’s new with you?

                  Hi! Well…I just met with the strangest therapist –

                  What? Haven’t you heard?? ALL therapists are strange – it’s a job requirement!

                  Well this one sure fit the bill –

                  Really? Tell me about it –

                  Well, first the weirdo talked to me in the softest voice, almost like I was their kid or their lover, but once they saw THAT wasn’t gonna work, they got angry!

                  Oh yeah, been there – But let me guess – the jackass thought they had you ALL figured out before you even opened your mouth, and once you did, they got pissed!

                  More than pissed – they got pissed AND acted entitled – you’d think I committed a crime or something –

                  Oh yeah – and don’t tell me – they started scolding you with the word “vulnerable” –

                  How did you know?? And I don’t EVER want to hear THAT word again –

                  Got it – but it’s their old standby – they haul it out whenever they realize someone’s onto their shit –

                  But what’s the deal with this “therapy”? All I’m trying to do is be myself –

                  But that’s JUST what therapists DON’T want you to be – YOURSELF –

                  Then what DO they want?

                  Therapists want you to be what THEY want you to be –

                  Wow… I think you’re right…wait – just like my parents!!!

                  I think you’re catching on –

                  Catching on??

                  Yes, therapists are out to be everyone’s parent –

                  Why?

                  Because they’re insecure people who need to throw their weight around –

                  Well who wants that? I just wouldn’t want to be stared at all day –

                  But that’s EXACTLY what therapists want – to be stared at all day –

                  Why?

                  Because it’s something their own parents didn’t do enough of for them, or if they did, it wasn’t in the right way –

                  So what you’re saying is, therapists charge people to be their human pacifier –

                  You got it!

                  But why do people keep going to “therapy”?

                  Because the pacifier thing works both ways –

                  Well I wasn’t put on this earth to be some idiot therapist’s human pacifier, that’s for sure – and I sure as hell can figure out how to be MY OWN goddamn pacifier –

                  Good – and you won’t be sorry once you do!!!

                  Ode to Psych Drugs sing-a-long
                  (Please refer to the song “I Got No Strings” –
                  I got no drugs to hold me down –
                  To make me laugh or make me frown –
                  I had drugs, but now I’m free –
                  There are no drugs in me!

                  Hi-ho! the-me-ri-o!
                  It’s the only way for me –
                  I want the world to know it’s the only place to be!

                • GIDDY-UP AND PITY-UP –

                  Why do “therapists” get so defensive when people criticize “psychotherapy”?

                  Because deep down they know it’s nothing more than an overrated, overpriced, and oversold TROJAN HORSE –

                • WITHOUT A DOUBT –

                  Why in the world do you dislike dyadic psychotherapy and psychotherapists so much?

                  Because it’s an artificial relationship based on a power imbalance that favors the clinician over the client, and that it’s established and maintained through financial means. I fail to see how these dynamics can create anything resembling a healthy relationship.

                  A power imbalance by its very nature creates a dependency in clients that is only intensified by therapists who are trained to view themselves as the experts rather than their clients. Dynamics like these can lead to clients getting stuck living out a therapist’s narrative rather than following their own instincts and intuition.
                  And while these dynamics are by no means limited to dyadic psychotherapeutic relationships, society’s relentless promotion of dyadic psychotherapy as the ideal furthers clients’ dependency.

                  Another drawback is the mistaken notion that the benefits of dyadic psychotherapy are the sole province of dyadic psychotherapy.
                  Add to this the inescapable fact that psychotherapists stand to benefit both financially and professionally from their reckless spreading of this wholly erroneous information.

                  And although discouraging, it seems therapists have great success promoting themselves more than anything else, as their genius for creating needs where none previously existed coincides beautifully with satisfying their own. Their ability to fashion two such brilliant manifestations simultaneously can only be described as truly remarkable.

                  However, in spite of their resourcefulness, therapists universally fail to see that clients would be better served knowing that dyadic psychotherapy is by no means their only path to healing.

                  And it seems therapists’ reluctance and/or refusal to inform clients of such vital information can only be attributed to the fact that therapists have financial incentive for maintaining their status quo, which only goes to prove their motives are selfish.

                  And of this I have no doubt –

                  What is “emotional distraction”?
                  Something “therapists” indulge in to keep from focusing on themselves (i.e. “therapy”) –

                  What is “professional distinction”?
                  Something obnoxious people (i.e. “therapists”) think makes their opinions matter more than others –

                  What are “therapists”?

                  It’s impossible to have constructive conversations with “therapists” –
                  How so?
                  Because every time you disagree with them they give you another “diagnosis” –

                  So what’s the difference between grandiosity and altruism?

                  Well, for “therapists”, there’s NO difference –

                  No difference? How so??

                  Because “therapists” EXPECT PAYMENT – which cancels out their grandiose claims of altruism – but DOES prove their unconscious grandiosity –

                  So what’s the difference between grandiosity and altruism?

                  Well, with therapists
                  there’s NO difference –

                  No difference? How so??

                  Because therapists DEMAND PAYMENT – which immediately cancels out any claims of true altruism –

                  And since most therapists show enough temerity to make such outlandish claims, their actions make it very easy to see evidence of therapists’ unmistakable, defining ultimately overriding grandiosity –

                  And after a century, it’s still talking out of both sides of its mouth, determined to continue its Diagnostic Mission Creep, creating its nasty heap of Diagnostic Miasma –

                Amusing…how??
                There was a gaggle of therapists, so many it seemed like a convention, so every other word they spoke were things like “vulnerability”, “authentic”, “empathic”, “healed”, “committed”, “core”, “outcome”, and of course their three favorites: disease, disorder and dysfunction –
                Wow – some party –

                Hey, look over there! The sun’s come up!
                Is it ego boosters? or just crowing roosters?

                There are some people who build careers out of stating the obvious –

                Which goes to show that at a certain point, education begins to make you stupid, and technological advances just give you more toys to play with.

                The “science of trauma” serves as a perfect example.

                The fact that trauma affects you physically (including areas of the brain) should come as no surprise – or haven’t you heard stories about people who, after hearing bad news, lose their hair or drop dead of a heart attack? Or others who literally die of a broken heart?
                Amazing, isn’t it?

                But truly smart people, many of whom have had little to no “advanced education”, already know that no one needs extreme examples, and especially not some idiot’s “scientific proof” to state the already obvious.
                And in any case, I seriously doubt the usefulness of any such “proof”.

                And what are MY qualifications?

                Many people, if left to their own devices, are capable of finding better and safer ways of healing than subjecting themselves to the intrusive, invalidating, infantilizing and soul sucking “process” of “dyadic psychotherapy”, their avoidance of which allows them to protect their privacy, dignity, personal agency and pocketbooks from the prying and stifling grip of a “therapist”.

                So people who say they’re “healed” but still want to be a “therapist” not only have a lot to learn, but should stop and ask themselves just who in the heck needs healing anyway, as having such desires reveals they’re still seeing things through THE WRONG END of a telescope –

                  It should come as no surprise that many people find the very idea of confiding in total a stranger (who not only demands payment, but complete personal anonymity) a disturbing prospect. For them, such arrangements are not only disturbing, but completely untenable.

                  But even more disturbing is the fact that these so-called “clinicians” use “psychiatric diagnoses”, which not only aren’t “scientific” in any realistically meaningful way, but are actually and actively harmful. Their “diagnoses” amount to nothing more than narrow and negative definitions/evaluations which permanently pigeonhole people to negative stereotypes, which negatively affect not only their self-concept, but the very trajectory of their very lives.

                  But not nearly enough, if any, skepticism is ever used in questioning the value or necessity of these so-called “psychiatric diagnoses” and/or “clinical evaluations” which is disturbing because in the final analysis, these “instruments” (i.e. “psychiatric diagnoses” and “therapeutic” “modalities” /“treatments” (i.e. “dyadic psychotherapy” or “psychotherapies” of any kind)

              They live to compartmentalize –
              They do it all day long with their Mighty Checklists –

              It’s what Psychiatry is all about –

              Psychiatrists are more than just Diagnostically Deluded – they’re mentally rigid and emotionally frigid – which makes them ideal Compart-Mentalists –

              And Compartmentalizing is extremely rudimentary – it’s not scientific or biological at all –
              But Psychiatrists fool everyone (including themselves) by passing it off as “scientific”, with their endless array of arbitrarily idiotic checklists and downright bizarre labels –

              So what’s behind psychiatrisits’ obsessive compartmentalizing? What’s the psychology going on in their own hollow heads?
              It’s FEAR – THEIR fear – their fear of expressing, or seeing others express, any honest thoughts or real emotions.

              And more than anything else, they’re unknowingly terrified of showing any of their own dissociated vulnerability –
              Because that would mean the end of their power over you –

                –
                Psychiatrists are hopelessly DISSOCIATED – meaning their terror is unconscious. Their controlling “treatment” of “their patients” is their own disturbing brand of acting out buried conflicts and trauma – the two things which account for their controlling/abusive behavior in their professional role – a role that satisfies their compulsive drive to have so much unreasonable power over others. Their career is one of continuous projection on others – they’ve never faced, been able to face, or been forced to face their own feelings of powerlessness. They may believe they’ve udealt with this – but their pursuing their kind of career points to a different conclusion.
                And their being among the traumatized (as everyone is to one degree or another) should not garner anyone’s sympathy.

                • Psychiatry (and its assorted cousins) attracts people who, both consciously and unconsciously, refuse to face their own feelings of powerlessness. Their being in power, their “having authority” alleviates these feelings of powerlessness.
                  They believe their motivations are altruistic, but the POWER reveals their true motivations –

                • POWER OF ATTRACTION –

                  Psychiatry (and its assorted cousins) are careers that attract people who refuse, both consciously and unconsciously, to face their own feelings of powerlessness.

                  Their job title, which gives them authority and POWER over others, alleviates their feelings of powerlessness.

                  They believe their motivations are altruistic, but their POWER reveals their true motivations –

                • HAVE NO SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL –

                  Psychiatrists are profoundly dissociated – meaning their terrors are unconscious.
                  Unconscious or not, their dissociation nevertheless leads to any number of profoundly damaging consequences – FOR THEIR “PATIENTS” –

                  In their dissociated state, psychiatrists act out their own buried traumas – ON THEIR “PATIENTS” – which explains their controlling and abusive attitudes, behaviors and “treatments” TOWARDS THEIR “PATIENTS” –

                  Psychiatry provides its “doctors” with a unique role – one that satisfies their compulsive drive to always be in POWER –

                  In their dissociated states, they fall into the diabolical practice known as “projection” – the “what I can’t see in myself, I see in YOU” syndrome.
                  It’s the only thing these professional goons ever truly “practice” –

                  Most psychiatrists believe (wrongly) that they’ve long since faced any such uncomfortable feelings – but their having chosen such a toxically power-centric line of work leads to a different conclusion.

                  And dissociated or not, such states provide NO ADEQUATE EXCUSE for their cruel behavior.

                  And while there is no denying that psychiatrists are among traumatized (like everyone else), this does not make them – in ANY way, at ANY time – deserving of ANYONE’S sympathies.

                • LET THE GAMES BEGIN?

                  What happens in those oddly secretive DSM conferences??

                  It’s “psychiatry’s” ONE BIG SHOW –

                  Their “diagnostic” Olympic Games –
                  Their “diagnostic” Hoedown-Showdown –
                  Their very own dressed up version of “diagnostic” Horse Trading –
                  Their very own “diagnostic” carnival of dangerously specious Letter Games interspersed amid Big Pharma’s strategically placed cotton candy and other favors (think product samples/swag) –

                  And it’s “secrecy” makes psychiatrists” feel special, (which is why “psychiatrists” become “psychiatrists” in the first place) and it reminds the snobbiest of their college days (think of fraternities/sororities) –

                  But “psychiatrists” primarily rely on their strictly enforced “secrecy” to hide the fact that their “diagnoses” – despite their persistent and long held claims – ARE NOT biologically based – that their “diagnoses” amount to little more than AKGT (ass-kissing groupthink); that they’re essentially picking labels out of a hat, no more, no less, much to the detriment of every “patient” they happen to see –

                  It’s where an especially overweening (but nevertheless confused), klatch of “psychiatrists” get together to unabashedly compete in various tit-for-tat feats of “diagnostic” one upmanship –

                  It’s where “psychiatrists” (depending on their level of “diagnostic” delusion), invariably descend into various stages of DA (Diagnostic Agitation) or DD (Diagnostic Delirium) –

                  It starts when a mess of colluding yet glad handing “psychiatrists” get together in some pharmaceutically sponsored office/convention center –
                  After opening statements, psychiatrists start playing one DFLG (diddly-fart letter-game) after another while excitedly anticipating their next big PDKO (psych drug kick-off) –

                  Eventually, competing factions of the most diagnostically deluded find themselves engaging in fervid and feverish bouts of D-BSBSBW – (Diagnostic BackScratching/BackStabbing/ BrainWashing) –
                  This usually devolves into one massive Diagnostic Grudge Match (characterized by carefully concealed fits of professional jealousy) –
                  The stalemate is broken only after a hefty game of DAW (Diagnostic Arm Wrestling), which, if need be, is accompanied by the reliable echoing of their pharmaceutical cohorts, or more excitedly(!), by the dazzling (but startlingly vacant) claims of neuroscience, “psychiatry’s” newest and latest darling –

                  More civil – yet still confounding – rounds of “diagnostic” letter trades/swag switches continue until “psychiatrists” finally tire of each other, or more accurately of themselves –
                  Whereas they reluctantly agree to vote upon their newest and most stupefying batch of letter arrangements –

                  After announcing the results of their most tawdry letter tally, the majority of participating “psychiatrists” report experiencing varying levels of DE – Diagnostic Euphoria –

                  The evening eventually subsides in due course with “psychiatrists” collectively toasting to their universally supposed “diagnostic” brilliance in a most irritating and shamelessly self congratulatory way –

                  And after an interminable succession of concluding remarks, their “diagnostic” convention summarily ends, with the most enthused bidding their “colleagues” a heartfelt “adieu” as they hastily depart, dreaming dreams of renewed Diagnostic Dominance until their NEXT cherished and long awaited DSM “Diagnostic” conference!

                • The diagnostic acronym D-BB/BW/BS/BS
                  (Diagnostic BrowBeating/BrainWashing/BackScratching/Backstabbing) is a bit much, wouldn’t you say?
                  Yes, so why not call it what it is?
                  And what’s that?
                  DBS – DIAGNOSTIC BULLSHITTING –
                  –

                • What’s all the fuss about neuroscience?

                  It’s a branch of medicine that – unlike “psychiatry” deserves respect –

                  And because “psychiatry’s” claims of “scientific evidence” continue to flounder, “psychiatrists” have latched onto neuroscience, making it it their newest and dearest professional “darling” –

                • WILL LOVE EVER FAIL?

                  What’s neuroscience?

                  It’s “psychiatry’s” newest and fondest “diagnostic” sweetheart –

                • FOR THE LOVE OF GOD –

                  Where can you find the love of God?

                  In the loving gaze of parents seeing their newborn for the first time –

                  Where can you see the face of the devil?

                  In the cold, “clinical”, callous stares of “psychiatrists/therapists” –

                • What’s “psychiatry”?

                  A sick world of “DIAGNOSTIC” SELF INDULGENCE –
                  “Practiced” by a series of self seeking, self important sycophants –
                  Chronically contemplating writing their very own book –
                  Highlighting their own perceived acts of “diagnostic”/“therapeutic” wizardry –

              • If you like trusting someone else’s judgment more than your own,
                By all means, see a psychiatrist –

                If you believe a total stranger is able know YOU better than YOU know YOU,
                BY ALL MEANS, SEE A PSYCHIATRIST –

                  The DSM is written by “doctors” who fanatically insist on plastering over trauma with “diagnoses”, “drugs” and diagnostically infested “psychotherapy” –
                  Just look in their DSM –

                  It all starts with “psychiatry’s” sickeningly long list of “diagnostic” invective –
                  Just look in their DSM –

                  And “psychiatrists” love patronizing others –
                  Yet are fundamentally unable to face their own strategically hidden insecurities –
                  Just look in their DSM –

                  And in order to distract themselves, they project their own insecurities onto their “patients” –
                  It’s a form of emotional off loading –
                  Just look in their DSM –

                  “Diagnosing” is psychiatry’s” chronic preoccupation, an irritatingly twiddlesome task characterized by their inability to see things contextually and objectively –
                  Just look in their DSM –

                  Yet for all their textually voluminous “diagnostic” prattle, they’ve solved NOTHING and helped NO ONE –
                  Just look in their DSM –

                  But “psychiatry” has, of course, managed to help itself –
                  By compounding the troubles and complicating the lives of essentially “normal” people –

                  And as devout followers of their “sacred” DSM, they fervently preach the gospel of illness and disability –

                  They’re forever preaching their “diagnostic” and prescription-filled victim narrative –

                But what’s stranger still is when “patients” DO fart, “psychiatrists” balk at the smell, and THEN assign them the impossible task of producing ONLY odor-free farts from then on, aided (of course!) by “psychiatry’s” large and ever-growing assortment of emotional fart-suppressing pharmaceuticals –

                But strangest of all is “psychiatrists” never admit to farting themselves – to ever having farted AT ALL –
                As such an admission would blow their “professional” fart-free grandiosity into an unmanageable mess of “diagnostically” farty smithereens –

                  For the adventuresome, there’s Pin the Tail on the Diagnosis –

                  And while many people share many of the same personality addictions/flaws/foibles/quirks/kinks/peccadilloes or just plain peculiarities as their beloved “therapist”,
                  the danger remains in the fact that therapists have the authority to downgrade with labels, strip people of their rights and freedom, and that therapy itself is a fundamentally false relationship built on flawed dynamics. No less appalling is the sad fact that therapists rarely if ever inform clients that therapy isn’t their only option.

                  And as to how or why something so inherently skewed as therapy and therapists has managed to achieve and maintain such widespread popularity, only speaks to how dissociated and indoctrinated people allow themselves to be.

                  But all is not lost. Less well known is the positive fact that many people when left to their own devices manage to find better and safer ways of healing with their privacy, dignity and personal agency intact –

                  There’s not a lot of difference, as most are narcissistic fools, terrified of seeming “ordinary” –

                  But generally, “psychiatrists” are the arrogant fools who think they’re scientists, whereas “therapists” are the romantic fools who think they’re artists –
                  And BOTH have the bad habit of romanticizing themselves and “psychotherapy” –

                • What do “psychiatrists” and “therapists” have in common?

                  Both are intolerable idiots who idealize themselves and that bullshit they call “psychotherapy” –

                  So before sitting down, imagine that “therapist” taking a shit with a simpy grin on their face –

                  Not much, as being either one means you’re dealing with a group of incurably narcissistic fools, wholly terrified of seeming ordinary –

                  Their main difference lies in the fact that “psychiatrists” claim to be “scientists”, whereas “therapists” view themselves as “artists”, whatever the fuck THAT means –

                • VISION CHECK –

                  Many people if left to their own devices manage to find better and safer ways of healing than turning to the insulting, intrusive, infantilizing and soul sucking “process” of “psychotherapy” and allowing their privacy, dignity, personal agency and pocketbooks to stay intact –

                  So anyone saying they’re healed yet still wants to be a “therapist” not only has a lot to learn, but needs to ask themselves just who in the heck needs healing anyway as such a desire essentially means they’re still seeing things through the wrong end of a telescope –

                • EMOTIONALLY DISTURBING –

                  It should come as no surprise that many people find the very idea of confiding in a total stranger (who not only demands payment, but personal anonymity) a disturbing prospect.

                  But more disturbing is the fact that these so-called “clinicians” use “psychiatric diagnoses”, which not only aren’t “scientific” in any realistically meaningful way, but are actually and actively harmful. These “psychiatric diagnoses”
                  amount to nothing more than a narrow and negative “evaluation” that is made without bothering to consider the context of the situation. Actions such as these only serve to pigeonhole people with negative stereotypes which negatively affect not only their self-concept and confidence, but also the very trajectory of their very lives.

                  Also disturbing is how precious little, if any, skepticism is ever used if anyone ever even bothers to questions the value or necessity of these so-called “psychiatric diagnoses”. This should be of paramount concern, because any “psychiatric diagnoses” and/or “psychological evaluation” is, in the final analysis, merely the inarguably questionable result of someone’s inarguably limited cultural and isubjective BIAS –

                  People who use the “mental health” industry as their gravy train oughta get the heck out of people’s lives. They’re parasites who need to quit hijacking the common language with their garbage terminology, which only serves to poison the collective consciousness and dialogue. Take for example one of their favorite words, “depression”. All this means is a pervading sadness which may or may not be life altering. But in either case, it should be recognized that sadness and other painful feeling states are NOT “medical conditions”. Sadness, heartbreak, and grieving are normal reactions to painful events and/or circumstance that ought to be kept away from clutches of the so-called “mental health industry”, something that seeks to pathologize emotions in order to justify catering to itself –

                • “SPLITTING” THE DIFFERENCE –

                  Is there a difference between “psychiatrists” and other “therapists”?

                  To a certain extent, yes. “Psychiatrists” are drug pushers and have the legal might to lock people up, but beyond that minor distinction, meeting either one means you’ve had the good fortune of stumbling across a uniquely dispiriting group of tiresomely narcissistic fools, which, not surprisingly, explains why both types harbor the bad habit of needing to be seen as having some sort of exalted status, which they seem to think is accomplished by referring to themselves as either “artists” or “scientists” –

                • PERSONALITY TYPES –

                  So what type of person becomes a “therapist” –

                  Oh, just imagine the time you met someone you thought you liked, but once you realized what the heck was going on you couldn’t get away from them fast enough –

                  Oh, well that tells me a lot – could you please be more specific?

                  Alright – “therapists” are not only too curious about you, but don’t hesitate to voice their opinions about your life and how you should live it while never doubting the accuracy of their conclusions –

                  So “therapists” are obnoxious –

                  “Therapists” are BEYOND obnoxious –
                  they’ve a massive sense of entitlement fueled by their garbage “education” that makes them think “therapists” know everything –

                  Okay, so “therapists” are nosy, obnoxious, entitled, umm….anything else?

                  Invasive, aggressive, conceited, greedy, dishonest, manipulative, yeah…that about covers it –

                  What a mess….

                  Well, you know what they say, “it takes what it takes”,

                  Apparently so….

                  But I haven’t mentioned the worst –

                  You mean there’s worse?!

                  Oh yeah, the nuttiest will tell you what you’re feeling and browbeat you ‘til they’ve talked you into it –

                  Browbeat you?! Wait – you’re talking about a bully!!!

                  Yep, that’s all a “therapist” amounts to, a bully with a price tag –

                • NAKED TRUTHS –

                  What are most therapists too cowardly to appreciate, too weak to withstand, and too stupid to ever even begin to comprehend?

                  BRUTAL HONESTY –
                  Something you won’t find much of in that circus called “psychotherapy” –

                • EASY QUEASY –

                  It’s amazing how people automatically recommend “therapy” without giving it a second thought. And “therapists” take advantage of this as they’re trained to discredit and dismiss someone’s healthy reluctance, which can make getting sucked into the black hole of “psychotherapy” all too easy –

              • THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING –

                But there is no pudding.

                So whenever some “therapist” tries telling/selling you their “diagnoses” are scientific, ask them the following question –
                What’s the proof???

                And without missing a beat, they’re rattling off their pablum of “studies and stats” that, in the grand scheme of things, mean little to you –

                And if that doesn’t work, they’ll make a galling attempt appealing to your emotions –

                But if you want to get them off your back for good, just say you lost your job, or filing for bankruptcy, or moving to a moon, and before you know it, you’re shown the door –

                Now, what does that prove?

                  “They” say? Okay – “therapists” say a lot of things, most of which aren’t true, and the “power imbalance” is just a bullshit word they use to keep clients in the dark –

                  In the dark?

                  Yes, so they won’t become persona non grata in your eyes –

                  People who use the “mental health industry” as their gravy train need to get the heck out of people’s lives. These “mental health professionals” are parasites who hijack the common language with their garbage terminology, poisoning the collective consciousness and dialogue with words like “depression”, “anxiety” and “narcissist”. One means sad, another means nervous or worried, and the last means selfish and manipulative, which begs the question – what good comes from making up formal-sounding labels that essentially single people out in a derogatory way, and not only a derogatory way, but a mediclaized way? And then these overconfident and ever-so-clever “mental health professionals” try their defend their sanitized mudslinging by saying they’re only “being descriptive”. But this shows how complacently and completely oblivious they are to the real harm they’re doing, which proves the following – that “therapists” are blatantly insensitive and grotesquely egotistical, and incapable of seeing the truth, which is that people’s feelings and behaviors are not “medical conditions” needing “treatment”, but some of the varied reactions to life’s painful events and circumstances. People should be kept away from the clutches of “mental health professionals”, unless they enjoy being pathologized by people paid to pathologize in order to cater to themselves –

                  Is it good judgment to align yourself with those who lives revolve around dollar-driven ideas of “illness” and “health”??

                  That doesn’t sound very nice…

                  Oh, but they make it sound VERY nice, as they’ve been trained to do that VERY well, now wouldn’t you agree?

                  (Reluctantly)…yes…but, but my therapist says it was always in their heart to be a therapist!

                  Ohhh yeah, “in their heart”, if I had a nickel for every time they say that I could open my own bank! People who say things like that need to take a good hard look “in their heart” and ask themselves WHY IN THE HELL “their heart” thinks it’s okay to make a buck OFF PEOPLE’S PAIN, but asking that won’t do you one damn bit a good ‘cause all they’ll do is come up with some half-assed rationalization followed by one of their crackpot “diagnoses”, for which you have to ask yourself WHAT KIND OF HEART DOES THAT???

                Why are “therapists” the worst people to turn to in your hour of need?

                Because just from the outlines of your life they think they’ve got you pegged which tells you right off the bat you’re dealing with an egomaniac and since they’re being paid you can rightly assume they’re doing it for the money as much as anything which makes for some pretty foul-smelling dynamics –

                You know you’re right –
                The whole idea of “therapy” always did leave a bad taste in my mouth –

            • ALL IS NOT LOST –

              And while many people share many of the same personality addictions/flaws/foibles/quirks/kinks/peccadilloes or just plain peculiarities as their beloved therapist, the dangers remains in the brutal fact that therapists have the authority to downgrade with labels, strip away people’s rights and freedoms, and that therapy itself is a fundamentally false relationship built on lopsided dynamics. No less appalling is the sad fact that therapists rarely, if ever, inform clients that dyadic psychotherapy isn’t their only viable option.

              And as for why something so inherently skewed as therapy and therapists has managed to not only achieve but maintain such widespread popularity only speaks to how disconnected and dissociated people allow themselves to remain.

              But all is not lost. Less well known is the positive fact that many people, if left to their own devices, succeed in finding better and safer ways of healing instead of relying on the black hole of dyadic psychotherapy, their avoidance of which allows them to protect their privacy, dignity, personal agency, and pocketbooks from a therapist’s stifling grip –

              To perform the following directives:

              2. Their left thumbs reserved for more prurient activity (jerking off) –

              This satisfies Psychiatry’s three main objectives –
              1. Thought suppression (their own and others)
              2. Self pleasuring (professional and prurient)

                  3. Take it from there –

                  But here’s two caveats –
                  1. Avoid stereotypical “therapy” sites –
                  2. Be ready for people (especially “therapists”!) who’ll try to talk you out of it –

                • PERSONALITY TYPES –

                  What type of person becomes a “therapist”?

                  Oh, just imagine the time you met someone you thought you liked but once you realized what the heck was going on you couldn’t get away from them fast enough –

                  Well, THAT tells me a lot! Could you please be more specific?

                  Alright – “therapists” are not only too curious about you, but don’t mind telling you about your life and how you should live it while never doubting the accuracy of their conclusions –

                  Oh, so “therapists” are obnoxious –

                  “Therapists” are BEYOND obnoxious – they’ve a massive sense of entitlement fueled by their garbage “education” that leaves them thinking “therapists” know everything –

                  Okay, so “therapists” are nosy, obnoxious, entitled, umm….anything else?

                  How about invasive, aggressive, greedy, dishonest, manipulative, conceited…yeah, that about covers it –

                  What a mess….

                  Well, you know what they say, “it takes what it takes” –

                  Apparently so….

                  But I haven’t mentioned the worst –

                  You mean there’s worse?!

                  Oh yeah – the nuttiest will tell you what you’re feeling and browbeat you ‘till they’ve talked you into it –

                  Browbeat?? Wait – you’re talking about a bully!!!

                  Yep, that’s all a “therapist” amounts to – a bully with a price tag –

                • OVER A BARREL –

                  What’s wrong with you? You look like death warmed over!

                  Well that’s how I feel, only worse –

                  Why??

                  Oh, I saw that goon of “therapist”, you know, the pushy one always telling people to “own their stuff”?

                  Oh yeah, “the blowhard” – well what happened?

                  Nothing I said suited the jerk – when I was happy, they said I wasn’t “in touch with my feelings”, and when I was sad, they said I should “focus on the positive” –

                  Well that’s what you get with “therapists”, you’re damned if you do, and damned if you don’t, and either way you’re stuck paying their fuckin’ fee!

              • THE SEARCH FOR TRUTH –

                Science is the search for truth –
                Psychiatry thinks it’s science –
                But it’s not –
                It uses science to distract from the truth –
                And what is the truth?

              It’s so exciting! My therapists tell me they conduct thought experiments! You know, for research and stuff. Doesn’t that sound grand?

              No! Can’t you see what they’re doing?!

              No…

              All they’re doing is “conducting” their despicable MIND GAMES – and don’t be a fool! They’ve undoubtedly been doing them on YOU all this time –

              Heavens no!!!

              “Heavens” yes!!! It’s all those jerks do, by golly, from sun up to sundown – but when you consider the type of people they are, it only makes sense –

              “Only makes sense”? What do you mean?

              It means they’re doing what comes naturally, you know, things suited to their manipulative personalities –

              You mean “therapists” have manipulative personalities?

              Do birds fly??? YES!!!

              Even the nice ones?

              Oh yeah, especially the “nice” ones – those are some of the worst, in fact –
              But don’t get too upset – just know it comes with the territory, and most are so dissociated they don’t even see what they’re doing or why the hell they’re doing it –

              You make it sound like they’re unwitting predators –

              THAT about sums it up –

              Oh my goodness, imagine that! Sound like I’ve made someone unhappy, now doesn’t it! But don’t you worry, if it makes you feel better, you can go tell your “therapist” – I’m sure they’d agree – for a fee –

                So what’s the difference between grandiosity and altruism?

                Well, with therapists, there’s no difference –

                No difference? How so??

                Because “therapists” EXPECT PAYMENT – which cancels out their claims of altruism, but proves their unconscious grandiosity –

                “Therapists” look at “clients” in two ways –
                1. As a feather in their cap –
                2. As money in their pocket –

                There are some people who build careers out of stating the obvious –

                Which goes to show that at a certain point, education makes your stupid, and technological advances just give you more toys to play with.

                The “science of trauma” serves as a perfect example –

                The fact that trauma affects you physically (including areas of the brain) should come as no surprise – or haven’t you heard stories about people who, after hearing bad news, lose their hair or drop dead of a heart attack, or others who literally die of a broken heart?
                Amazing, isn’t it….

                No one needs some idiot’s ooh la la “scientific proof” to state the already obvious –

These “mental health professionals” are parasites who poison the common language with their garbage terminology with words like “depression”, “anxiety” and “narcissist” – which begs the question – what good comes from making up formal-sounding, medicalized labels that objectify people in a negative and electronically permanent way?
              And then these overconfident and ever-so-clever “mental health professionals” add insult to injury by defending their nasty habit of name-calling/sanitized mud-slinging by saying they’re “only being descriptive”. But this shows how completely and complacency oblivious they are to the harm they’re doing, which proves the following – therapists are grossly insensitive and blatantly egotistical people unable to see the truth which is that people’s feelings and behaviors are not “medical conditions” needing “treatment”, but are varied reactions to life’s difficult experiences, events and circumstances that need space, time, privacy and patience to heal on their own. People should avoid the clutches of “therapists”, unless they enjoy being pathologized by people paid to pathologize in order to cater to themselves –

            So whenever some “therapist” tries telling/selling you their “diagnoses” are scientific, ask them this question –
            What’s the proof?

            And without missing a beat, they’re rattling off their pablum of “studies and stats” that, in the grand scheme of things, means little to you –

            And if that doesn’t work, they’ll make a galling attempt appealing to your emotions –

              But it’s also because therapists, no matter how thoughtful and considerate they may seem, have the following:

              Massive egos –
              Manipulative natures –
              Exploitive and greedy characters –
              And above all, harbor an intense but unconscious desire to be hero worshipped –

            • PEOPLE ADDICTS –

              It seems in order to get through life, a lot people stumble into one addiction after other, and “going to therapy” is just one more addiction. Indeed, “therapy” is frequently touted as not only “the best” answer, but as “the only” answer to any if not all life’s problems –

              But an important distinction needs to be made, and it’s this –

              “Clients” aren’t the only ones addicted to “therapy” –
              “Therapists” are the ones addicted to “therapy” MORE THAN ANYONE –

              But it’s nothing less than amazing how creative therapists have proven themselves to be in their invention of therapy at all – something so special, so uniquely artificial, so peculiarly one-sided, and so perversely “intimate”, (not to mention grotesquely expensive), it can literally make ones’ head spin –

              But being a “therapist” is just a socially acceptable way for socially aspirational (and unconsciously insecure) people to soothe (but not heal) their own unmet emotional needs while potentially meeting their financial obligations in a potentially lucrative way –

              Now this would be a dandy arrangement if it weren’t for the sad fact therapists are just acting out their own repressed childhood traumas on people simply seeking a healthy way to heal their own –

              But the truth of the matter is that “therapists” are PEOPLE ADDICTS –
              They’re addicted to seeking and experiencing unhealthy (unhealthy on their part) human connection which only goes to prove the following:

              “Therapists” are addicted to being seen –
              “Therapists” are addicted to being heard –
              “Therapists” are addicted to being needed –
              Therapists” are addicted to being looked up to –
              Therapists are addicted to feeling admired –
              “Therapists” are addicted to feeling important –
              “Therapists” are addicted to being seen as “the expert” –
              “Therapists” are addicted to telling people what to do and how to live –
              “Therapists” are addicted to one-sided relationships where they call the shots –
              All of which means one thing –
              “Therapists” are addicted to POWER –
              Looking at it this way, it would seem the word “therapist” could take on a whole new meaning –
              A meaning that if widely known and widely accepted could mean the beginning of a healthier world –

              • ALL IS NOT LOST –

                And while many people share many of the same personality flaws/addictions experienced by therapists, the danger remains in the fact that therapists have authority to downgrade with labels, strip people’s rights and freedoms, and that therapy itself is a fundamentally false relationship built on flawed dynamics. No less appalling is the sad fact that therapists rarely if ever inform clients that therapy isn’t their only option.

                And as to how or why something so inherently skewed as therapy and therapists has managed to achieve and maintain such wide popularity only speaks to how dissociated and indoctrinated people allow themselves to be.

                But all is not lost. Less well known is the positive fact that many people when left to their own devices manage to find better and safer ways of healing with their privacy, dignity, and personal agency intact.

                  Many people when left to their own devices find better and safer ways of healing than enduring the insulting, invasive, infantilizing, soul sucking “process” of “therapy”, and have therefore managed to keep their privacy, dignity, personal agency and pocketbooks intact.

                  So anyone saying they’re healed yet wants to be a therapist not only has a lot to learn but needs ask themselves just who in heck needs healing anyway, as such a desire essentially means they’re still seeing things through the wrong end of a telescope –

                  And just what ARE people’s options to “dyadic psychotherapy”???

                  Well, there’s something called “self-therapy”, which is another way of saying “look within”, which essentially means becoming aware of not only your present feelings, but where those feelings may have come from, which most often is sometime in the distant past, the results hopefully being a greater understanding and appreciation for a newfound (or rediscovered) sense of self, which hopefully has a newfound ability to speak up for itself, and hopefully an ability to set boundaries with others to protect the newfound self.

                Why is it a bad idea to see a “therapist”?

                Because “therapists” are trained to think THEY know you better than YOU know you, and this because therapists are trained to think they know better than anyone who isn’t a “therapist” –

                But it’s also because therapists:
                Have massive egos –
                Have manipulative natures –
                Are exploitive and greedy –
                Harbor an intense but unconscious desire to be worshipped and seen as “the hero” –

                So what does all this mean?
                That it’s wise to steer clear of any and all “therapists” –

          • EMOTIONALLY DISTURBING –

            It should come as no surprise that many people find the very idea of confiding in a total stranger who not only demands payment but personal anonymity a decidedly disturbing prospect.

            Even more disturbing is the fact that “clinicians”/“therapists” use “psychiatric diagnoses”, which not only aren’t scientific in any realistically meaningful way, but are actually harmful. “Psychiatric diagnoses” are nothing more than narrow, negative labels most often chosen without considering an individual’s current and/or past circumstances, situations, events, and experiences (i.e. traumas). But whether or not this be the case, such labels permanently pigeonhole people to negative stereotypes which negatively affect not only their current self concept/confidence, but the trajectory of their futures lives. And such frustration becomes elevated to the level injustice when the “psychiatric community” wrongly asserts that such “disorders” are universally lifelong conditions.

            And most disturbing of all is the fact that little if any skepticism is ever used if anyone ever even bothers to question the validity and necessity of these so-called “psychiatric diagnoses”. Such a blatant lack of critical thinking only adds to “psychiatric diagnoses” already substantial lack of credibility. And finally, this lack of credibility is further enhanced because in the final analysis, these “diagnoses” are merely the result of someone’s cultural, subjective and therefore undeniably limited biased opinion.

                the personality component made up of unconscious psychic energy that works to satisfy basic urges, needs and desires –

                the impulsive (and unconscious) part of the psyche which responds directly and immediately to basic urges, needs and desires –

                the set of uncoordinated, instinctual desires –

                the id remains infantile in its function throughout a person’s life and does not change with time or experience as it is not in touch with the external world –

                the id is not affected by reality, logic or the everyday world, as it operates within the unconscious part of the mind –

                the id operates on the pleasure principle (Freud 1920) which is the idea that every wishful impulse should be satisfied immediately, regardless of the consequences –

                the id engages in primary process thinking which is primitive, illogical, irrational and fantasy oriented. This form of process thinking HAS NO CONCEPT OF OBJECTIVE REALITY and is selfish and wishful in nature –

          • HAVE NO SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL –

            Psychiatrists are profoundly dissociated, which means their terrors are unconscious.
            Unconscious or not, their dissociation nevertheless leads to any number of profoundly damaging consequences – FOR THEIR “PATIENTS” –

            Psychiatry provides its “doctors” with a unique role – one that satisfies their compulsive drive to always be in control –
            In their dissociated state, they fall into the diabolical practice known as “projection” – the “what I can’t see in myself, I see in YOU” syndrome.
            In their dissociated state, psychiatrists act out their own unconscious traumas ON THEIR “PATIENTS” –
            and this explains their controlling and abusive attitudes, behaviors and treatments TOWARDS THEIR “PATIENTS” –
            It’s the only thing these professional goons ever really “practice” –

            Most psychiatrists believe (wrongly) that they’ve long ago faced such uncomfortable feelings – but their having chosen such a toxically power-centric line of work leads to a different conclusion.

            And dissociated or not, such states provide no adequate excuse for their cruel behaviors.

            And while there is no denying that psychiatrists are among the traumatized (like everyone else) , this does not make them in ANY WAY, at ANY TIME, deserving of ANYONE’S sympathies –

              • WITHOUT A DOUBT –

                Why in the world do you so dislike dyadic psychotherapy and psychotherapists?

                Because it’s an artificial relationship based on a power imbalance that favors the clinician over the client and is established and maintained through financial means. I fail to see how these dynamics can create anything resembling a healthy relationship.

                A power imbalance by its very nature creates a dependence in clients that is intensified by therapists who are trained to view themselves as the experts rather than their clients. Dynamics like these can lead to clients getting stuck living out a therapist’s narrative rather than following their own inclinations, intuition and instincts. And while these dynamics are by no means limited to dyadic psychotherapy, society’s relentless promotion of dyadic psychotherapy as the ideal furthers this dependence.

                Another drawback is the mistaken notion that the benefits of dyadic psychotherapy are the sole province of dyadic psychotherapy. Add to this the undeniable fact that therapists stand to benefit both financially and professionally from their irresponsible spreading of this wholly erroneous information.

                And although discouraging, it seems therapists have great success promoting themselves more than anything else, as their genius for creating needs where none previously existed coincides beautifully with satisfying their own. Their ability to simultaneously fashion two such brilliant manifestations can only be described as truly remarkable. Yet in spite of their resourcefulness, therapists fail to see that clients are better served knowing that dyadic psychotherapy is by no means their only viable option. And in any case, it seems therapists’ reluctance and/or refusal to inform clients of such vital information can only be attributed to the fact that therapists have a financial incentive for maintaining their status quo, which only proves their motives are selfish.

                And of this I have no doubts –

                  It should come as no surprise that many people find the very idea of confiding in a total stranger (who not only demands payment but complete personal anonymity) a disturbing prospect.

                  But even more disturbing is the fact that these so-called “clinicians” use “psychiatric diagnoses”, which not only aren’t “scientific” in any realistically meaningful way, but are actually and actively harmful. These “psychiatric diagnoses” amount to nothing more than narrow and negative definitions/evaluations which permanently pigeonhole people to negative stereotypes which negatively affect not only their self-concept/confidence, but the very trajectory of their very lives.

                  And not nearly enough skepticism is ever used if ever questioning the value or necessity of these so-called “psychiatric “diagnoses”
                  and/or “clinical evaluations”, which is disturbing because in the final analysis, any of these so-called “instruments”
                  (i.e. “diagnoses”, “therapeutic modalities”
                  (i.e. “dyadic psychotherapy”, or “psychotherapeutic” “treatments” of any kind), are merely the inarguably QUESTIONABLE results of someone’s inarguably CULTURAL and inarguably SUBJECTIVE BIAS –

                  Many people, if only left to their own devices, are capable of finding better and safer ways of healing than subjecting themselves to the intrusive, invalidating, infantilizing and ultimately soul sucking “process” of “dyadic psychotherapy”, the avoidance of which allows them to protect not only their privacy, but their dignity, personal agency and pocketbooks from the undoubtedly half-assed “interventions” of some undoubtedly half-assed “therapist”.

                  So anyone saying they’re “healed” but stills to be a “therapist” has a lot to learn, and needs to ask themselves who in the heck needs healing anyway, because having such desires only means they’re still seeing things through the wrong end of a telescope –

                Oh! I just met the most wonderful therapist today and I know they’re good because they said being a therapist was always in their heart, and I can tell they’ve a BIG one –

                Well how nice, but did you ever stop to think that – just maybe – their heads might be twice as big and their fees ten times bigger???

                No, I guess not…

                Well, then I think it’s time you ask yourself WHAT KIND OF HEART DOES THAT???

                  There’s something called self therapy, which is another way of saying “look within”, which essentially means becoming aware of your feelings and where they may have come from, which is often some time in the distant past, the results hopefully being a greater understanding and appreciation of who you are and how you want to live your life.
