But seriously, what did you expect them to "do" exactly? All they can do is give you tools that have proven to work for others and explain to you how to use them.

It sucks and I hate that it hasn't worked for you but it certainly doesn't make them frauds. IF you've honestly tried tens of different techniques and they've failed then you are an unfortunate difficult case

I'm aware. I do get this. I'm not complaining because they didn't "fix me" I'm complaining that they did nothing. I never asked for a solution. Just a path to management. But there was never anything. Just "how was your week..."

Have you ever tried a psychologist or psychiatrist? Ain't no shame in trying different treatments.

I for one would be fine if you moderated talk about boring “heavy” poo poo in the Funny Picture thread. Or we can all agree that this is the PYF Brain Issues And Funny Pictures thread, and then it won’t be an issue.

I just want everyone to know that anyone can pm/email me. I'm not a psychologist, nor have I had any therapy training, but I've been through some poo poo man. So I kinda know what I'm talking about, and I don't charge :)

Anyway, funny pictures, because I forgot what thread I was in:

I am a bit aggressive. I've spent hours and literally tens of thousands of dollars out of pocket trying to seek help and received nothing in return. Not 'nothing of worth' I'm not imply they tried and I felt failed I'm saying no one has even tried. I'm sorry I'm angry. I know it's rude. I'll die soon because I have no other choice. I'm just angry that people say "go to therapy!" "find a better therapist!" and then "well you didn't try!"

I've wasted so much on people who did gently caress all. And I get I'm the bad guy. But I've been let down by the people who have routinely taken my money to help. I dunno. gently caress it. I'm just angry. I tried. I wasted thousands of dollars and seen a dozen or more therapists and psychs and people just will be like "what an rear end in a top hat" I honestly tried. I did what I could I asked for help. And every professional failed me. But it's my fault. I wasn't in the best space to bootstrap. So I'm angry. Sorry.

I disagree. The part you bolded is exactly what the people The Ape of Naples is complaining about would immediately focus on.
Just because someone says they would like to die doesn't necessarily make them suicidal. It's only human to want to be done with life.
And that's all we are. Human.

I wondered when that was coming and thanks for the lock down before I could contribute to the derail. I don't have a funny picture so risking a probe but...

Is there a general therapy thread somewhere in the forums that might be at least semi serious? Not GBS but maybe in E/N or in You Look Like poo poo? I can't find one that deals specifically with this topic and it's obviously worth discussing.

I mean, I have no one. Hence seeking therapy. See my experiences above. Yes, before anyone asks I've taken meds. And meds and meds.
