       I feel really disappointed in therapy. The modern methods are just self-help plus, they are an extension of depression and they perpetuate it, not relieve it. Journaling about some bs, creating schedules, morning pages, afternoon pages, evening pages, whatever pages, overwhelming yourself with a dozen petty tasks like monitoring your thoughts and overanalyzing your reactions - these things are not supposed to cure you. they are supposed to distract you and drain you of your energy so that you don't start asking actually important questions

       @ohgodpls Depression is caused by capitalism, therapy can't fix the problem of wage slavery, patriarchy and alienation, if anything you have a good chance of being gaslighted that these things are okay and that you will be happy if you accept them

       @Mynona yeah, therapy often feels like the blind leading the blind. therapists are trapped in the same system so how they help me cope or escape it?
