Cool you linked a serial killer's manifesto this is totally the same thing as a (likely) satirical murder fanfic written by a professional writer in therapy

Writing a journal detailing your emotions in attempt to work through them isn't the same thing as writing elaborate torture porn in secret about all the women you are jealous of. If you can find me a therapist who says writing obsessively violent fantasies about real life people for perceived slights is healthy then maybe I'll believe you.

Mirthless posted:Equally understanding because writing therapy is a thing and the poo poo you put in your journal is supposed to be sacrosanct. You don't sit in on your partner's therapy sessions and you don't read their loving journal! You are again expecting people to be psychic. How is he supposed to know it's a therapy journal, he probably doesn't even realize therapy journals are a thing. Again, his wife is a writer, it is normal for him to read things she has written down.

The whole point of writing therapy is dealing with your extreme emotions. Yes, the things she writes in the journal are extreme, revealing, and possibly disgusting. She wrote those things because they were never meant to be read and it is a means to vent her feelings. Do you really think she wants to murder people? Because I have to tell you, fiction books aren't real. The Hobbit is a story about a fictional character. He does not really fight trolls, or kill giant spiders. There aren't actually elves. They don't ride barrels to a river town, they don't sneak into a mountain lair, and Smaug is not a real dragon, he is a fake dragon, he was made up.

He repeatedly says in the comment that he suspects it's a therapy thing. He knows she is in therapy. He immediately identifies what it is. He should know he made a mistake and just let it go. It is not normal to read something somebody stashes away in a hidden place. She clearly kept it somewhere private for a reason. This should have been an easy connection to make, if he was insecure about a hidden diary or journal he should have asked her about it before taking it upon himself to read it. If it had been a stack of love letters we'd all be screaming about what a jerk he is.

JRR Tolkien isn't present in The Hobbit as an authorial insert shoving hot rods up their anuses, either. Obsessing violently over non-issue things other women do is not healthy. Theraputic writing should get people to a point where they work through and get over past feelings, not be something that inflames and reinforces that type of violent, obsessive thinking.

Even for a venting journal, it is pretty weird to put that much effort and attention into the whole thing. When your vent has a narrative, it's maybe worth looking internally at why. E: Hence being in therapy, I suppose! Or Ellen really is a slag.

Oh my god mirthless please. I think it's weird when people obsess over a particular poster but seriously you gotta lay off. Put in your two cents and move on instead of arguing whether or not it's loving weird for an adult to write murder friendfiction (it is). Get out of here with that stigmatizing mental health poo poo and stay in your lane. That you think writing violent fantasies out is a therapy tactic is stigmatizing in and of itself. That isn't healthy.

I'm sure she looks internally at why in the context of therapy, where that journal probably also makes sense. We don't have that context, because we are neither her nor her therapist, and that journal was never meant to enter our awareness in the first place. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

There is a difference between therapeutic journaling, wherein one lays out the difficult thoughts and emotions they struggle to keep in check, and on the other hand channeling these negative feelings into a whole mythology you can return to and tweak where you torture the objects of your (entirely misplaced) rage in vengeful, sadistic ways?

Snooping is bad. Writing detailed fantasies of killing your husband's friends is extremely weird. Nobody is perfect here and there's probably going to be an awkward conversation in their future. Perhaps we can move on without a 69 post Mirthless derail.

Is it a worrisome that a person would keep a fantasy diary of torturing to death their husband's female acquaintances for trivial transgressions? Who can say. At this point I fully expect goons to crop up and attack somebody who's worried when he finds that his wife has piles of butchered children in a murder basement because he was prying on his wife's private therapy, and she needs to feed on their blood to hold the demons in her head from breaking through.

It's stigmatizing, and he never says it's an actual therapy device, he says he thinks it might be therapeutic to her and those are two very, very different things. It is not a normal or healthy way of processing emotion, dumbass. Anyway, done. Over, let's get some new content for mirthless to sperg over incorrectly

Jumping off the theme of "Claims to be therapy:" Wife [36F] is seeing a non-therapist therapist and wants me [39M] to see her too. Do I have a right to be upset here? quote:About a year ago my wife told me that she wants to see a therapist and I was cool with that. She told me that it's mostly about herself and self improvement and when she feels ready, she will involve me as well. This looked all fine to me. We've been married for 13 years have two kids and both of us would say that our lives, while not perfect, is good and we're both happy.
