Of course you can only work on yourself, but therapy doesn’t exist in a vacuum and frequently you’re just learning coping mechanisms for the status quo.
I doubt this is true. This feels like something that I would have told myself before therapy so I wouldn’t have to deal with myself
I don’t have any experience with CBT, isn’t it mostly for dealing with specific traumata?
What you need to realize though is that you can only affect so much. Mostly if you need help you should help yourself first. Then if you’re happy and capable, you need to help others. Not the other way around. So get with it and don’t hang yourself up on “shit is fucked”. It is, but it has been worse and it also can get worse. But that doesn’t really matter for now, help yourself first if you need to.
Like ofc it’s not wrong to also help others.
The situation is hopeless and has always been. But that’s not as bad as it sounds and it frees you and me from the burden of the world. Do what you can, that’s enough.
I can highly recommend this video for reflecting on hopeless thoughts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJaE_BvLK6U
Yes, but you’ll just develop a tolerance and just have the effect of someone that consistently drinks 2 per day
Caffeine tolerance is fully gone after 2 weeks without it. Stop drinking energy drinks at all for two weeks, then don’t start again. They’re nice for special occasions, but I don’t think it’s good to drink them every day. Maybe drink a set amount of cups of coffee per day or sth like that.
Never happened to me
Most US-american families haven’t lived in the US for 100s of years, but they’re still US-americans, not Irish, Spanish, German etc.
Why would you be?
Omg he must be amazing if he did that
I wish but nothing’s gonna happen
It’s just not my experience.
