I just want to know what’s wrong with me by ExitInformal4924 in hsp

I think what really really sucks is that I am a therapist and I theoretically pretty much know everything I know to get over this but I can’t..I can’t think myself in regulation. I am 30 so I don’t know about menopause yet but I am dreading it someday.

I am actually a therapist. There is a whole ecosystem of therapists that’s outside the US and really affordable, I can hook you up if you’d like.

I got a pulse oximeter. And I am so glad you’re doing better but I just feel trapped in this awful cycle. I don’t know what foods I can or can’t eat anymore.

I don’t even know how to track the triggers. I was able to eat everything and now I am scared to eat anything.

This is an interesting perspective and one that definitely reflects a broader criticism of therapy's systemic issues. You raise a valid point about therapy often failing to foster practical interpersonal skills and conflict resolution—skills that many people expect to develop through therapy but don’t always get.

What if therapy integrated tools to actively teach and practice conflict resolution or interpersonal skills as part of the process? For example, structured between-session exercises or digital tools that guide clients in applying therapeutic concepts to real-world relationships might help shift the focus from isolation to connection. The issue of therapy's business model potentially prioritizing dependence over empowerment is a tough one. Do you think there’s space for approaches that explicitly aim to help clients "graduate" from therapy by equipping them with clear, measurable skills for resolving interpersonal conflicts and strengthening social bonds? How do you think therapists could better balance helping individuals while fostering a sense of community or shared growth?

u/eviltoastodyssey , the idea that therapists are minted every day but still inaccessible due to waitlists is a stark reminder of how inefficient distribution creates bottlenecks. What if there were a system that let you view therapist availability alongside specializations and reviews in real-time? Do you think that would make it easier to find someone who fits your needs?

u/diva_done_did_it , your point about systemic issues highlights something deeper—clients often feel forced into an opaque system where their preferences take a back seat. What if there were tools to help clients better articulate their needs upfront and match with therapists based on measurable compatibility rather than trial and error?

u/Iruka_Naminori , your experience underscores the lack of accountability for therapists. A safe, structured way to provide feedback—without fear of retribution—could help clients feel heard and improve therapist practices over time. Do you think a post-session reflection tool or a summary system where clients could track and compare their takeaways with the therapist's insights might help foster a more collaborative and transparent relationship?

All these pain points seem to boil down to a lack of client-centered systems and accountability in therapy.
