- i_am_a_peasant 3y agoI used to view psychology as a pseudoscience but some of their methods have given some results for me. My therapist has introduced me to ACT to deal with some negative thoughts that come to me out of nowhere that I end up obsessing over. The act of creating a layer of separation between me and the bad thoughts by labeling them actually was a pretty effective way to cope.
