No, it's pretty common practice to provide support for extraordinary claims. It's actually a normal behavior-- people usually don't respond with gaslighting, but given the level of other responses you've provided, this fits.
- staticman2 3y agoAm I gaslighting you and making extraordinary claims or are you catastrophising, making a selective abstraction, personalizing, magnifying, making an arbitray inference, overgeneralising, filtering, blaming, global labeling, discounting the positive, mental filtering, or jumping to conclusions? I recommend checking with a therapist and finding out.
- thefurdrake 3y agoYikes.
- salawat 3y agoI have a better idea. Get this book series. https://www.amazon.com/Structure-Magic-Vol-Language-Therapy/dp/0831400447 https://www.amazon.com/Structure-Magic-Vol-Language-Therapy/... One of the best reads I've ever done, and for the saavy mathematician/programmer who has a knack for deconstructing mental constructs via linguistic analysis, it'll equip you to be able to do better at handling your own woes, or at least being able to keep tabs on someone you decide you trust enough to allow them to engage in some neuro-linguistic programming. YMMV. Therapists have their uses. But to get the most out of them, you have to spreckin' the lingo. Then again, if you already can, you're more than half way there.
