>>25214734
Why is this bad? If I started going to one I would prefer a female. It would probably help me stop being so antisocial around women
>>25214707
I went to a woman therapist when I was a kid and just starred at her big tits.
>>25214753
Nothing wrong with that I went to a few male ones they were pedophile creep nut jobs.

Many, many women are literally incapable of empathizing with the problems of men. Many things are just so far outside of their scope of experience that it's literally incomprehensible to them. Every pleb girl also wants to become a therapist, and the field is dominated by very mediocre women. However only men who have an extreme interest in the field choose to pursue it and despite women absolutely dominating the field in terms of numbers men still make all the important discoveries and breakthroughs because they're just naturally more competent at basically everything. A female therapist isn't intrinsically shit but most female therapists are shit.
>tfw going to see Tish at harmony healthcare
Just listen to my BS and give me my drugs
>>25214575
So how'd that go?
>>25214836
Well I had already told her about /r9k/ so it went okay I guess, she understood what I was talking about pretty quickly
>tfw AGP faggot and nobody will ever help you being saying "see a therapist" and therapists don't help you because they ask completely useless, see-through, trivial questions

that's fucked up
>>25214872
She's gonna get you put on some sort of of government list if you're not careful. Does she think you're making progress?
>>25214896
Well I am making progress considering I have OCD and thanks particularly to the strategies and techniques I've learned from therapy I've been able to control a lot of the compulsions I have
>>25214575
>parents force me to see a therapist or be kicked out after dropping out of college and NEETing around the house for a year
>hundreds of dollars of my parents' money later, shit isn't working

>the cycle repeats a year later with a more expensive psychologist
>the cycle repeats yet again another year later with an even more expensive psychiatrist
>tries to prescribe me Prozac, don't want to take it
Shit doesn't work unless you're a normie who can magically fix your problems by talking to another normie
>>25214952
Why don't you just be a normie?
>>25214952
>don't want to take it
You're wasting thousands of your parents' money and don't even want to try prozac? That's selfish anon.
also
>not taking every drug you can
>>25214816
Do you have any data to back this up? I fully believe you but arguing this point to normies is difficult.
>OP says "therapy is a meme" as if it is not.
>OP believes that he can be healed or fixed
>mfw OP in fact just wants to unsee and forget because he's too weak to see modern society for what it is
>>25214952
Do what I did.
I just stopped seeing anyone for help and applied for internship, and now have a job.
I still hate myself, want to die, and see no hopeful future for myself, but at least I get so tired from working I don't get the time to think.
>>25214746
I remember when I was around 12 I wanted to see girls my age naked. Idk why I had such a burning desire.(maybe because my dad turned out to be a kiddy-diddler) I got so frustrated that I'd only get pictures of grown women. Ended up literally typing in "c**** p***" and clicked on links, ended up actually finding it.
Now that I'm older I have absolutely no interest in that shit but when I was a kid I certainly did
>all things considered I would say it wasn't a crime on my part
>>25215091
you're not alone anon, I did the same when I was about 14/15, didn't find any though, just websites telling me how illegal it wasProtip: Technically nudist pictures aren't illegal, so actual CP can be found on google by typing "teen nudist"
I can't open up to men and I don't like talking to old people who cannot relate to me at all.
I don't know how to request a younger female therapist without seeming like a creep.
>>25214990
If it was just fucking easy, I doubt any of us would still be here...
>>25215130
I rememberone vid was some Mexican uncle fingering what must've been about a 10 year old girl, entirely hairless and everything, she had a bow in her hair and she was playing with his dick, to her it was all just a game

Robots should become therapists and help the future generations of robots on a personal level because they understand tfwngf
>>25214575
This thread can be summed up in one 30 second video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfmVBmDKLZI
>>25216206
but then we'd have to talk to people on a regular basis and also deal with normies' "problems" as well. there aren't enough robots seeking therapy to sustain a practice
>>25215036
not him, but there's no point in talking to normies about this shit.
Anyway, most of the evidence is seen by the fact that women don't care about men of low status. Many men don't either, but even more women don't.
Dr Jordan B Peterson, Professor of Psychology at the University of Toronto puts it this way
skip to 58:50 and watch for 10 minutes.

more from him
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmjKNGsQG7g

Anyway, therapists are full of shit and don't care about you, and that goes double for female therapists.

There really is a sex based disparity in empathy, stemming from the fact most males, in terms of reproduction, aren't worth much.

i dont even like women and think therapists are shit but you somehow manage to be an even shittier human being than the average woman, congrats
I started going to a psychologist because I got fucking drunk and smashed my house up, got charged with domestic violence. I needed to see someone to help with my problem drinking to keep my out of the pen, and she was the only person I could find who worked weekends.
She seemed nice on first impressions, but as soon as you give any woman an indication that you've been charged with DV their face goes sour and they instantly hate you.
We started talking, still in the information collecting stage, 2 weekly sessions, I figured I may as well answer her questions and listen to what she has to say since I'm there.
>At the end of the second session, we still had done fuck all. I offered to pay more for longer stations, she said "I prefer short sessions more often"
> Immediately books my next session three weeks from then
> Text messages me that morning saying shes sick
> Reschedules my appointment nine days later.
There we go, I'm a lost cause, such a low priority patient that it doesn't matter how much I talk about killing myself.
And I can't stop going till at least after my next court date or I'll look bad.
Maybe therapy is a meme, maybe it isn't and I'm the fuck up.
>>25217424

This is why I love reading those wagecuck threads. Because I know this is the truth.

I don't like to think about it desu it was fucking awkward, I said I didn't want to be a wagecuck, she asked what that was, I was like "those depressed people who get like cucked by their job", then she asked what I meant by getting "cucked" and I was like uhhhhh you know like cuckholding and she was like"...yeah, okay, go on" and I was like well they're getting cuckholded and like humiliated by like their job idk it's a /r9k/ phrase and she was like "hm...okay"
Hella uncomfortable to be QUITE honest with you

Loser neet.
>>25214575
I had an appointment with mine yesterday at noon, but she wasn't there when I got there and wouldn't pick up her phone when I called her. She sent me a text later trying to schedule for another day but I said I was busy.
Fucking hoe I don't know how you expect me to open up to you like this.
The only reason I'm going is because my parents want me to, it's a waste of money and she asks me stupid questions and tries to find problems where there aren't any. When I did try to tell her about my anxiety issues she just took it as if I just didn't want to talk to people and told me to just go out more and join clubs.
No way I could have a crush in such a massive normie, and yes therapy is a big meme.
>>25217483
>studies motherfucker,
where? all I see are a bunch of unlabeled links to what could be nothing, and no text from you substantiating or summarizing anything. l2argue, you'll never be taken seriously if you act like this
behaviour like yours is why "the manosphere" is such a feminist meme and why feiminsts and women in general have so much traction. anyone trying to show anything wrong with the situation just ends up chimping out like yourself and making things worse
>>25217590
the difference is that male therapists typically don't puport it as being **SCIENCE**, they just talk your issues out with you as someone with enough experience/expertise to help you find solutions you may not have seen on your own.
it's woman therapists that go to school all I FUCKING <3 SCIENCE LOL and think they're gods when they graduate with a certificate not even equivalent to a BA in social work
>>25217580
she probably thinks you're dumb and have been spending too much time online, and it has poisoned your views
while "I don't want to get a job because most people hate their jobs and I don't want to join their ranks" is a reasonable thing to think (with similarly reasonable solutions) that you used dumbass internet lingo to express it tells more about you and your situation than just that you don't want a job
I wish that i told my therapist about this place, the thought of her reading my posts, or even becoming a robot herself is kind of exciting to me. Oh well one can dream. I doubt she even remembers me now
>>25214753
It's not the best.
Sure they're comforting to talk to, but you have a serious risk of falling for them, forgetting you're paying for their services.
Male therapists tend to identify more with the male condition.
>>25217604
are you the prozac dude?
try st.johns wort or 5htp. also sups like fish oil and tumeric pills
L-theanin (for concentration), vitamin D3/B12, phenibut for anxiety..
do some reading online. theres a shitload of OTC stuff for all kinds of things. its still drugs just cause big pharma hasn't patented it. also smash out really hard excercise (almost to throwing up/pass out) daily, its not a meme, really boosts ur seratonin levels
>>25215505
It wasn't even serious. I was like 16 years old and wanted to look at teenagers naked. I have OCD and freak out at random stuff, worrying I'm a bad person etc.

This, holy shit, you go from having almost no positive interaction with the opposite sex to suddenly having a cute girl who seems super interested and caring and kind and on your team and just wonderful in every way and they are so good at pretending they care about you, no man is strong enough to resist that kind of fake affection and attention, you'll be sucked in and then feel even more pathetic about it
>>25217792
haha I never thought of it that way. My only therapists have been dudes and an old woman
>>25217792
>no man is strong enough to resist that kind of fake affection and attention
why are straight men so weak?
Therapist here. I troll the Chans to stay abreast of the latest developments in psychopathology.
>>25214575
My therapist just spent my first session telling me how charming I am, how amazing all the things I've accomplished are and how shocked she is I managed to survive my childhood to turn out this well-adjusted.

Do you think they do that? My therapist laughed a couple times at stuff i said in what seemed to be about an inside joke, she refused to explain why she laughed. I wondered if the joke was directed at me or at clients in general

>>25217954
what exactly did you say? I would have walked out if my therapist laughed at me.
>>25217921
Yep. Take your money and get a massage or something. Therapy is huckster bullshit.
>>25217954
yes they are laughing at the things you say, usually they wait to laugh after the session but you must have said something that she found too funny not to laugh at. you are literally supplying them with comedy gold
>>25215037
This. I'm always tired from work so depression really only has time to stew in my brain now when I get a couple minutes to myself. That being said I developed a horrible alcohol problem and now I have so many legal problems for it I wish that I would get killed at work. I'm probably facing some jail time in 2016.

I sort of want to see a therapist for my OCD. It's getting awful. Technically that behavioural cognitive therapy thing but I'm really worried I'll just be a burden.
I'm negative as fuck, and even if I feel like I'm making improvement I wouldn't be able to shake the feeling I'm just annoying my therapist. Like, I hate being at work, I can have the nicest customers ever but I give 0 fucks about them and just want to leave. I'm afraid they'll see me the same way, and I can't open up to someone who almost certainly won't give a shit about me and just wants my cash.
I need this before I finish med school.

>>25218814
As someone who has been seeing a therapist for a couple months now to get help with my OCD, you need to start that shit right now. You can't let OCD stay unchecked, because by its very nature you will keep responding more and more to more compulsions which snowballs into your condition getting progressively more shitty. I've been doing ERP and it's been working very well for me so far. Since utilizing the techniques I've learned in therapy, I've successfully stopped responding to a lot of the compulsions I had been having. For the first time in years I feel like things are getting better instead of worse with my OCD. My mental state is so much healthier. And I haven't needed to take any medication or anything, as I expressed my hesitation about medication and she has completely respected my wishes so far. Being able to talk about your problems with someone who understands the condition on the clinical level is also super stress relieving.
You need to stop thinking about whether or not the therapist cares about you, because that doesn't fucking matter; what matters is getting better. Do you worry yourself over whether or not a Doctor truly "cares about you"? Probably not. Just think of your therapist less like a counselor and more like a trained medical professional who you are paying, yes, but paying to help you.
>>25217899
I live there, do you think that I could go to you maybe?
>>25220798
Sure. It's actually in aurora and we take most private insurance, HFS medicaid, and most managed care medicaids. Self pay would be something like 40 or 50 per session
>>25220798
Or if aurora is far I can suggest somewhere closer if you give me an idea of where you are.
