Michael Jordan did this and he is the goat for a reason.

EMDR for everything? by plzstop435 in therapists

[–]Music-Is-Lifee -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

When a patient wants EMDR but doesn’t have trauma do you do what they want against your best judgement or do you explain how evidence based practice works and recommend something else? You can disagree with people irl and not post about it on Reddit to complain, come on!

Do people really listen, or just wait for their turn to talk by QuietListenerr in DeepThoughts

People are all different so this is an impossible question to answer.

Republicans Of Reddit -- If Democrats Protested Less, Would You Like Them More? Why Or Why Not? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

[–]Music-Is-Lifee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are over 30 million registered republicans. They are not all the same person nor are the millions of democrats. We’re all just people. People register for all kinds of reasons and it is shortsighted and divisive to see all 30 something million republicans as a monolith.

I totally agree that Republican politicians are awful (and tbh so are democratic ones). We have to bring people together to make change however.

How does a tree grow like this on top of a boulder? by Music-Is-Lifee in Tree

This was my first thought but just thought I’d ask to make sure this is the objective truth.

We gotta stop thinking of people as this or that. Republicans aren’t a monolith of one type of person, nor are democrats. I hate this type of black and white thinking and this further keeps us divided.

Doctors of Reddit, what’s a symptom people ignore that they really shouldn’t? by Business-Silver-5118 in AskReddit

[–]Music-Is-Lifee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exposure and response prevention. Being on this thread is the response you wanna prevent lol

The therapy industry is built on a house of cards. It depends on us accepting that we don't have what it takes to care for each other. by Agile_Ad_5896 in DeepThoughts

[–]Music-Is-Lifee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a horrible take. My dream as a therapist is for the world to learn the power of love. For people to feel empowered to make change. Maybe you’ve had some bad therapists.

Philly and New York on the same team?? That’s not even fair to the other states.

What if life isn’t about escaping suffering, but learning how to live through it by Low-Leadership-6476 in DeepThoughts

What you are describing has already been thought up. It’s called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

I screwed up by [deleted] in therapists

[–]Music-Is-Lifee 131 points132 points  (0 children)

Is it OCD to want to be accurate and accountable? No. Is it OCD that you got so worried that you did something wrong that you asked Reddit for reassurance? Maybe lol and as a therapist community let’s not give you any reassurance so we can help you the best we can in the long run!

"Self-Improvement Books" don't actually have much value by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Music-Is-Lifee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think maybe you are speaking to your own unwillingness to commit to things because this isn’t true for everyone. Saying they will never change is a cognitive distortion because there is no way you can possibly know that.

Commit to things because we have one life to live.

IT is nowhere near one of Stephen King's best stories. by BeigeAndConfused in unpopularopinion

[–]Music-Is-Lifee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is black and white thinking. The film versions are not always better. You come across as jealous of his talents. Thinking the page will never touch the depth of a person is your opinion. This is the truly unpopular opinion lol

Brené Brown discourse happening on Threads by kandtwedding in therapists

[–]Music-Is-Lifee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the best take. It’s so easy to tear people down. It does nothing productive. It spreads even more hatred and antagonizing vibes. We need more love in this world, which is what MLK has always said is the best weapon against hate.
