    I literally think you might need help though. It’s not uncivil nor an insult to suggest someone go to therapy unless they mean to belittle people with mental health issues which I certainly do not. It’s not something to feel ashamed about either especially given the world we live in.

      Do you, Dr. Freud? Based on a few text-based interactions?

      Amazing. Psychiatrists take more time, but you’ve figured out the shortcut.

        I think it’s generally good practice to go see a therapist every once in awhile if you can afford it and even if you feel fine. I’m not trying to diagnose you and therapists don’t really do that either. But yes, seeing the way you’ve interacted with me and others I think is enough for me to give you that advice.

          Based on what, exactly? My refusal to concede to something you demand? You’re not that important.

              And yet your whole psychoanalysis is apparently based upon my refusal to do what you demand.

                I actually recommend going to someone who specializes in CBT and not psychoanalysis. That said if the latter is all that’s available to you it’s generally better than nothing.

                  And what, specifically, are you diagnosing me with that requires CBT? Not following your orders?

                    CBT helps plenty of people live happier and healthier lives. You don’t actually need to be diagnosed with any mental illness to find it useful.
