Sigh, well if you really want to be depressed, I suppose it's a free country. Speaking as someone who used to be depressed, all that depressive realism stuff is total BS. When you completely filter out all the positive aspects of everything and focus on the negative only, you're just not seeing the complete picture.
- Aaargh20318 8y agoI’m not depressed though.
- jm__87 8y agoOkay. What were you doing CBT for?
- Aaargh20318 8y agoI’m not doing CBT anymore. I used to for autism related anxiety issues but I stopped with therapy after my psychologist told me there was little left he could do for me. Basically, psychology is just modern day quackery.
- jm__87 8y agoAs I do not have autism, I cannot relate to your viewpoint. It is possible that psychology is not going to help you - but it did help me and has helped many people, so I wouldn't be so dismissive of it. My advice for you after days of going back and forth on here: you should try being a bit more open minded. I've met a lot of smart people who are right about a ton of things related to their area of expertise who think that this competency carries over to other areas where they are less knowledgeable. It's best to avoid being one of those people.
