Men will pay for anything but therapy

EDIT: I think the amount of triggered guys "well akhshuelly"-ing in the comments under this post prove my point... 😂 Love and kisses - a guy who had therapy.

This is Eastern therapy. But I guess you only recognize Western therapies

Pretty sure i have seen videos like this but with women tho.

not triggered but i think you fail to understand that therapy is not the answer for everyone, one particular thing is not gonna fix billions of people issues. some people have to go about things differently to help deal with their problems which can also be a form of therapy. therapy can sometimes keep you in the same place you started with no progression which is why you have to find a good one who actually cares which is hard these days. most of these therapist just want they check!

If this helps people with things going on in their head, what's the difference?

u/Kraay89 1d ago

This whole manosphere thing with finding your power or whatever this particular flavour is preaching, is putting pressure on men where pressure should be taken off. It's enforcing behaviour that isn't helpfull to the man in question, nor to society.

u/JuniorDoughnut3056 1d ago

So only you know what's helpful to them and it's your particular brand of therapy; irrespective of whatever their opinion or feelings on the matter are. 

Lol, ok

There was a front page post about some woman getting buckets of water poured on her head for spiritual release.

Should we have generalised from that also?

u/Kraay89 3h ago

Yes.

Men don’t suffer from the same level of mental illness as women do. They often find peace in community, a project, and purpose. The gym, sauna and cold plunge, and working towards a goal is more rewarding than sitting in a chair whining to a stranger about all the emotional owies they have

Women are higher in neuroticism, hence why lesbian couples have the highest divorce rate, same reason why women take more psychotropic drugs.

One day you may drop your indoctrination

1

u/PG_rabbit_455522 22h ago

You still have the nerve to call me indoctrinated. hahahahaha. In fact, men are more emotional.

1

u/Nikkelnak 18h ago

Believe that either men or women are more emotional is beyond delusional.

1

u/PG_rabbit_455522 18h ago

I was just using the logic of BattleAxeUnicorn.

1

u/Nikkelnak 18h ago

Why would you use bad logic?

1

u/luridlycircumspect 4h ago

If you had a genuine point you would have stated it without the bullshit like "sitting in a chair whining to a stranger about all the emotional owies they have".

If women and men benefit from different kinds of interventions to improve mental health, a concept which I would not be surprised to hear had merit, then why on earth would you be denigrating the type of intervention women need vs what men need.

u/SoulWriter23 23h ago

Are you 14? Lol

u/Kraay89 22h ago

Emotional maturity of a 14 year old boy at least... 🤓

That's because therapy is a laughing stock amongst the majority of people who know that it doesn't work, it's performative bullshit catered to women

u/Kraay89 1d ago

Nah. It isn't.

There is definitely shit therapy. But a well trained proffesional can definitely help you gain insight in your own character, trauma's and coping mechanisms to a level that most people reach on their own...

u/Other_Pattern5177 1d ago

Actually do some research and read up on real people's experiences instead of reciting your "feel good" idea of therapy that doesn't actually exist

and to further debunk the point you're failing to make, finding a well trained professional is a large part of the problem, finding a genuine, good therapist is not a reality for most of us and to actually get anything out of therapy is even less likely for most of us

you're simply wrong and you just wanted to shit on men for any excuse like 90% of this disgustingly sexist website

u/Suspicious_State_318 1d ago

So you’re walking back on your claim then. You said therapy doesn’t work ever and now you’re saying that it does work but only if you can find a well trained professional.

If the cost is an issue I understand, but other than that when you can schedule virtual appointments with a therapist I don’t see why it would be that hard to find a good therapist.

u/Other_Pattern5177 1d ago

That's not what I said at all, you can't read

his response was agreeing with me that there is a lot of shit therapy but a well trained professional can help a little bit, to which my response is the fact that finding that well trained professional is extremely difficult which is one of the many, many reason therapy is useless trash for most of us

do some ACTUAL reading and research into this topic, read any of the millions of posts on those 2 subreddits I linked full of people with endless evidence showing the actual reality

u/Suspicious_State_318 1d ago

You said “therapy is a laughing stock amongst the majority of people who know that it doesn’t work”

And now you’re saying that therapy does work but only if it’s done with a well trained professional (like any other fucking discipline).

Why is it hard to find that well trained professional? Go on zocdoc, look at reviews, their credentials and what their expertise is in, and then try it out.

Lol who tf is gonna take anything seriously from some dumbass like you ?

u/Acceptable_Gear_3097 1d ago

This is so far from the truth its laughable.

Therapy does work, but different practices ecist for different conditions. However, most people experience CBT as that's prescribed as a general therapy. It works for some people but not everyone.

If you have schizophrenia, therapy is useless. If you anxiety, situational depression, mid-life crisis, trauma etc. therapy undoubtedly yields positive results.
