>they called me the next day but I said I couldn't do it because I started a new job (it was true)
>it was just a few weeks gig and now I'm NEET again
>they just now called me back two times and left a message saying they're concerned about me and wanna talk to me

Fuck, what do I do? I dont know if I wanna go to a therapist.. I know this seems like a blog but I dont know what to do. Anyone else gone to one? Did it help?

i did for a while as a kid

we played mtg and talked about crap idk it wasn't so bad

i don't think i could go now

>>25151182
i feel liike the day my family try and have an 'intervention' for me is fast approaching, idk what to do.
>>
nothing is gonna happen dude and yeah that's a "You should go" i did 2 yrs ago but my mind is fucked up (in a good way) so the psychologist couldn't tell shit about me but that's just me.
>>
helped me when i was a kid even though it didnt seem like it was. I always tell people that psychologists dont seem to work until after youre pretty much done going. People tend to stop going after one session because it seems pointless but a lot of times it can really help if you stick with it.

>>25151275

My mom wouldnt have done it but one day when I was REALLY depressed I just bawled my eyes out about what I felt. So thats why she did it.
Why would anyone intervene you, anon?

>>25151348
>>25151308
>>25151202

Why did you guys go?

I'm not even a kid.. I'm fucking 26. But I do need help. I'm definitely not normal.
>>
>>25151458
my dad is a strong right wing catholic etc, my brother got an apprenticeship straight out of school (in australia that basically means you are set for life and earn 80k+ per year) my mother is sort of on my side but i think she still wants me to get a job and have friends and shit. worst part is i know if i go i will eventually end up being diagnosed with some level of ASD and that would cause a big problem with my dad probably destroy the whole family.
>>
>>25151548

ASD? Is that autism?

I have lots of suspicions that I might be a 'high' functioning autist.. I'm definitely not 100% normal. I can just sort of emulate one.

I dont see how you being an autist would destroy your family.. it's something out of your control.
>>
>>25151620
i most likely have aspergers, as for the whole destroy my family thing my dad isnt real understanding and he would probably try to distance himself from me
>>
>>25151458

I'm >>25151202

parents divorced when I was a kid, idk. Became antisocial. It was about 2nd or 3rd grade I think. I went for maybe a year or two.

I'm not really so sure that it helped me, but I also think I lost a lot of my memories from back then and I'm not even sure that I was that aware of my own consciousness. But I'm also kind of going through a big period of depression and existential crisis right now so that could just be that talking.

Fuck idk I hate myself. A different therapist could be way better. I know people who really like their therapists.

I would go if I was you just because you have nothing to lose by going really. If you get diagnosed and your dad flips out, thats crazy of him and he'll probably get over it. He might even surprise you. But if you're miserable now stagnation is probably the worst move.

I'm a robot that advocates therapy.

Unfortunately for you, you have to really want it to help. A lot of my problems revolved around me thinking negatively about my situations and how I perceive it abnormally

Everyday you write down what went wrong in the day, how you feel. You write down what you need help with.

You read this to your therapist. This saves so much fucking time you'll make the therapy session 4 times as effective and very quickly.

YOU NEED TO BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF. You really have to dig in deep and find out what's wrong with you. You need to objectively find out the best plan for you and think other alternatives. Find out the pros and cons of everything. Question your decisions.

Some female therapists are god tier, but male therapists for the most part seem to understand loneliness and depression. If your therapy isn't going good, then get a new therapist.

I think the 2 problems that robots have with therapy is that they think it works quickly and effectively and therapy is something they need to do nothing and have their therapist have them do everything while effectively resisting treatment.

Could be worse, I had to show my dick to an old man today because I can't retract my foreskin at the age of 24.
>>
>>25151182

Therapy sucks. I've been in and out of it since I was a kid and it never did shit for me. Always the same bullshit "exercises" that don't do a damn thing except waste your time and money.
>>
>>25151830
>YOU NEED TO BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF. You really have to dig in deep and find out what's wrong with you.

I know a big part of it.. and thats why I'm worrying about going to a therapist.

You see the gif I posted in the OP? Lolis... you get the idea.

I need help, but I dont want to fuck myself over either.

This is something I dont think can ever change. Then from that stems depression, anxiety and other things.
>>
>>25151673
Friend if he's not willing to spend time with you due to something out of your control then he can fuck right off. If it does happen, it's not your fault.
>>
>>25151673

Maybe it's for the best. If your dad cant love you for who you are, then fuck him.
Not like being an aspie is wrong in itself.

>>25151687

I wish you good luck anon.. I think we all can benefit from therapy here.

>you have nothing to lose by going really

I think I do actually. :\

>>25151972

I am not an expert on this topic however therapists cannot disclose anything about their patients to anyone unless

1)it endangers the life of an individual/yourself
2)it is asked in court for a case.

Do some research depending on your country or state. this is based on the usa laws

Is it 2D lolis or 3D lolis?

If 2D lolis, state explicitly you don't want anything to do with 3D lolis because they turn into roasties. Be completely honest, but don't suggest to them you are a danger to others or yourself. Act like you really want to get help or change your person.

3D lolis, tell them your whole life has been dedicated to get rid of your pedophilia. Mention you're a Christian who wants to badly get rid of their sins. Mention you are not related to anyone younger than the age of 18 or come into contact with them in any way shape and form. You can lie to them if you do, just make sure no problems arise from 3D lolis from your life or your story doesn't conflict.
>>
>>25152156

Yes, it's 3DPD. :\ I have no children in my life, so I wouldnt be lying. Still, this is something I dont tell anyone outside of 4chan.

I think I might just tell them about the depression, anxiety, etc. There's nothing they can do about sexual attractions anyway.

There can be no 100% honesty in my opinion.. especially if it's a fucking woman. I dont think I can do a female therapists.
>>
All of the psychiatrists I've been to turned out to be frauds. The therapists I saw were better. One was okay-ish but the other helped me get over my problems. Like he actually helped me get through it all, which is pretty amazing because I was convinced that good things don't happen.
>>
>>25152326

It was difficult but I told my therapist that I masturbated 6 times a day.
>>
>>25152439

To normal porn I assume?

Theres nothing wrong with that.. I would tell him too, if it was normal porn.

Cheese pizza though, no way in hell it would ever come out of my mouth.
>>
>>25152352

Yeah, stay away from psychiatrists. They are there to sell you pills and nothing more.

Unless you got something like schizophrenia that needs actual medication, tell them to fuck off.. you dont need anti-depressants to be happy. It just means that theres something wrong with your outlook of life. It can be fixed mentally, not with pills.

I'm seeing a therapist right now. He immediately saw that I'm a beta fuck-up, so he keeps forcing me to make decisions and be my own independent person. He notices things I don't notice about myself, and they're usually pretty helpful.

As an example, I told him I wasn't ever feeling motivated to do anything, and he like challenged me, saying "What's wrong with that?" I thought he was being like some stupid liberal therapist who thought there was nothing wrong with doing nothing all day, and that made me angry. But what he was actually doing was making me realize my reasons for wanting to do things, and those reasons are what push you to do stuff in the first place. He made me feel something, where usually I just accept whatever comes and try not to feel anything. That was the root of why I don't do anything, I don't feel anything and I don't believe anything. Once I realized that, I was able to pick up my hobbies again and start doing shit.

Self-therapy is really good too, there are a bunch of techniques. DBT has been helping me the most, but a lot of people like CBT too.

>>25152489

Your choice, anon.

>>25152662

I'm glad you're doing better now, anon. This is what I like to hear, as oppose to all the self-defeatism on /r9k/.

>>25152719

What I'm asking is, you masturbate 6 times a day to normal porn or cheese?
>>
>>25152662
Cock and ball torture?
>>
>>25152739
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Fairly self-explanatory.

Now I'm borderline suicidal and I don't know how to stop thinking about it. It's not like I live a hard life, I've got my license and will be attending community college in February, I don't feel like I have the right to be suicidal. My older brother died years ago so now I'm too pussy to actually kill myself since I don't want to let myself down and make my family cry.

afraid of revealing yourself? got some secrets you don't want to confront huh?

>got some secrets you don't want to confront huh?

Yes. Read the rest of the thread.

I just made the appointment but a part of me thinks this is a bad idea.
>>
>>25153721
>>Therapist says my career choice is boring

Why would a therapist say this?

Surely there was a reason for it.
