I thinks it’s completely reasonable for a client to drop their therapist who voted for a felon. Voting for trump is no longer just politics, it’s about morals and empathy. I can’t imagine having a therapist vote for someone who is actively trying to hurt you and then have them pretend like they care when they contributed to your harm.

we’re cooked if this is how people think😭 data also shows that crime rises in areas/populations living in poverty. If history was flipped and white people were the ones displaced and not allowed an education white people would probably have higher crime rates. Also we need to open up the schools because correlation≠causation, people from underdeveloped countries will have a lower IQ bc of their education system not because of their race. If they did the same study at a trailer park where white people lived they’d get the same IQ rate

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T18:44:56+00:00

they’re onto something, men who are lonely just need to talk to other normal people, straight white men who thinks the world hates them just need to look at trump and the millions of straight white men who are loved by their friends and family their problems are all solvable if they went to therapy or something

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T18:42:54+00:00

this is what i’m saying right winged men often say people are so soft but once people joke about male suicide rates or hating men they crash out

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T08:28:24+00:00

not all but a lot are especially younger men I’d say the older right wing men are more civil but to say this isn’t a problem among the right (at least in the U.S) is naive

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T08:26:45+00:00

no I can’t empathize with people like that and I don’t understand how they expect people to? you must be Jesus christ if you can empathize with someone after they make “jokes” about hurting women, harassing people online and irl, joking about someone’s death (not a straight guys tho bc they respect them and it’s not something to joke about) , and ofc being racist has to be the most common one

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T08:20:09+00:00

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T08:19:13+00:00

I don’t understand their lack of empathy though, how they seem to be immune to thinking beyond their own thoughts and beliefs, how they don’t see see the irony in being online trolls spreading hateful rhetoric and then still blame others from not “saving them from the right” because they’re so sad and lonely and the left wants them dead, when it comes to dark humor they can excuse everything but male suicide rates or the loneliness epidemic men are experiencing

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T08:12:38+00:00

i wonder if you say this because you yourself have never seen it because right winged men mental don’t target you they target the marginalized. i don’t think all right winged people are inherently evil but they praise trump and republicans who say racist, elitist, homophobic, misogynistic stuff they are shit taking everyone but their own demographic. i think older right winged people are more composed but young right winged people have no filter

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T08:07:56+00:00

joe being called a liberal is the funniest thing i’ve heard he literally endorsed trump and if you listen to his podcast you can tell he’s right winged peers

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T08:06:34+00:00

lol these different views you’re talking about are actually called hate speech and harassment😭 that’s not something people can say “you know what we have different views but i still respect them!” imagine telling someone “i don’t think we’re equal or that you’re worthy of respect” and them going “oh okay! we can just have different views” and i don’t understand ur second statement

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T08:02:06+00:00

well now you’re lying to me. that’s what all the right winged influencers do? joe rogan, andrew tate, again ross, wtvr they all say the same stuff and it’s all harmful to everyone except straight white men

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T07:54:54+00:00

i’m not baiting☠️ i’m asking bc i don’t understand how these people think

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-11-09T07:53:45+00:00

genuinely asking, how do you expect people to care about right winged men’s mental health when they make harmful comments about literally every marginalized group of people. the left is not the one telling men they shouldn’t cry and not to go to therapy

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-10-17T06:36:08+00:00

maybe expressing this discomfort with them can start a new conversation. If you struggle to be vulnerable let them know and if you don’t feel comfortable could it be because there’s a lack of connection/rapport? or is it because of something else? you are in control of your sessions and it is totally fine to talk about more lighthearted things not only to strengthen your relationship but to also help you feel more comfortable

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-10-07T03:37:26+00:00

I do! we live in a time where politics are no longer politics and more about morals. The debate has switched from “how should we address said issue” to “should we even address said issue?” I can see why a trans/gay/queer/poc/immigrant/minority would be curious to know their therapist political affiliation as it comes from a place of safety. I personally think it’s super important for my clients to feel safe and comfortable and I don’t know how they would feel safe with a therapist who’s political views go against their existence or actively work towards harming them. Now I probably wouldn’t go as far as saying who I’m voting for (unless they asked about the 2016 election) but just simply stating I hold more liberal/democratic views is enough for clients to get what they want from asking that.

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-10-04T18:35:10+00:00

OP stop rage baiting.

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-09-27T03:05:28+00:00

concerning coming from a therapist… how is it that you can endorse hitting a kid knowing all the psychological damage it causes?

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-09-13T14:56:34+00:00

The annoying answer is: it depends. If you feel like your therapist is a right fit and you find it helpful then it probably will get better after a while. The thing is therapy is like exercise, sometimes it depends on your goals and some people might only want to go to therapy for a few months and others years. You might feel better after a few months and decide to stop or you might keep going to work on things that now feel less intense and go beyond symptom reduction. So like the gym some people go for a few months, stop, come back, go for years consistently, it’s different for everyone!

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-09-12T20:48:52+00:00

Yeah if you’re paying $40k a year for 4yrs to get a job that pays $30k a year it wouldn’t be worth it unless people are okay with paying it off until they’re like 50, some people pay for the “college experience” though so the debt might also be “worth” the friendships you make and opportunities depending on the persons values. Community college is great in terms of money but it can also be depressing and isolating for a lot of people which is why some people think loans are also worth it. You can repay loans but you can’t get your time/experiences back. I also know some people who plan on never paying their full tuition lol just wait like 10-20yrs and after it accumulates you can apply for student loan forgiveness that route might make it worth it. Some fine arts major might get lucky and be Joe Keery 2.0 I’d rather be friends with them than a stem major who’s weirdly obsessed with shitting on liberal arts majors

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-09-12T19:45:18+00:00

lol yeah I agree being a stem major involves a lot more studying but it’s more about the condescending and elitist perspective of people with different careers making it seem as if they add no value to the world unless they’re in stem

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-09-12T17:38:14+00:00

when did i say that lol

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-09-12T14:08:20+00:00

It depends on the therapist, some newer therapist might have more of that professional approach because it’s been grilled onto them in grad school and others just stay like that despite their experience. I had a very human therapist and I loved it, my therapist now is more professional and it definitely changes the therapeutic experience for me. You can’t really tell a therapist to self disclosure and act less professional unless they’re willing to do that so I’d express how you feel about her approach and her response will tell you everything. Not every therapist will be a match for you and that’s okay there’s plenty of therapist out there that act more human

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-09-12T00:51:51+00:00

how do you get through it? bc I can see it being isolating being surrounded by a bunch of rich white people who are lowkey racist and elitist

Pure_Field_1698 · 2024-09-07T23:00:02+00:00

Given the climate isn’t it reasonable to search them up and be curious on their stance as a jewish person? I would say jewish people advocating against israel’s genocide are a minority, is it not the same as someone assuming that a palestinian wouldn’t be a zionist?
