| Eury Damn well maybe I'm just fucked for life than since a life change was my hope. Nice |
| E.T. Eventing |
| Void - Yes! Exactly. Sometimes they are just shit. Sometimes it’s a genetic predisposition out of our control. I think that’s why it’s important to deviate between the two so we address them in their respective ways. |
| Sandy Hill Farms |
| Yep. My mom has been in the profession for over a decade, and she has had patents that have left her because they didn't think she was a good fit for them. Every now and again, though, they come back for another session. |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| void--big same. I was so adverse to trying meds for a while, and in hindsight I wish I'd started sooner. it's been lifechanging |
| Shiecka |
| oh yes, of course therapists are trained to dig deep and read those signs, but I would imagine its a fine line... digging too deep when there really isn't anything there could cause even more issues LOL |
| The Old Gods |
| I've been through multiple years of therapy, got taught all sorts of coping mechanisms, explored potential reasons for why I was severely depressed. And no, it didn't go away when my situation improved. |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| sandy - yeah and if you don't feel comfy, fire them and get another one. sometimes you just have to try a few until you find one that clicks |
| E.T. Eventing |
| Shi - I agree. It is a vast expanse of unknowns whether being patient caused or otherwise. It’s a complicated effort to try and do the best for someone while knowing so little. |
| The Old Gods |
| I'm saying this as someone who's had depression longer than you've been alive. |
| E.T. Eventing |
| Void - The other point I would also agree with however, is that we know that if we supply the brain with storebought chemicals, it will stop making its own, which is equally dangerous. So while it can be used to our advtange I believe it must be used in moderation. Because the coping mechanisms as you said will not work afterward if the brain is now unable to produce them. |
| Sunset River Arabian |
| I wouldn't know if its making its own or not. 'Mental health' isnt real where I'm at and I'm not dealing with the bullshit id get to find out. Water works fine for now |
| Sandy Hill Farms |
| Shi, you make a very good point, but as someone who has studied Mental Health, therapist, if trained correctly, are able to read your body language, and should be comforting enough for you to open up. |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| zrek - ok yeah the idea that you use the degree you earn in a 1:1 match with your job on the outside is a huge myth. I studied languages and barely used that in my job despite having gotten a scholarship to study it, because it's not about the specific skill that made it valuable--it's the exercised ability to reason, plan, communicate, and expand your horizons that gives a degree its value. for that reason college can be a great place to explore what might spark your flame, but it does take money rather than give it in the process. so then you need to consider however much debt you may be saddled with, and whether or not you can apply to or have scholarships, before 100% committing. college definitely isn't for everyone but that's ok |
| E.T. Eventing |
| Void - Yes that is simultaneously true. When I struggled with depression I would say it was more difficult to create a basis of coping skills in the deep of the dark. Sometimes the brain chemicals are wonky, just because they are due to genetics or uncontrollable factors, but I see them beyond this situation as an indicator there is something going on causing that imbalance. |
