| It's not okay to lie about mental health. This is a dangerous post. If you are someone who read that post and are about to take what was said as fact at least google the statement that is the most obviously fake: "Did you know that psychologists know how to cure insomnia in a single session?" and in doing so remember the word that was chosen: cure.
------------------------------------------- Red flag: (you don't need help you can help yourself) > The biggest hurdle to overcome is the idea that there exists a magic barrier where your disorder goes from being something that you can cure yourself to something you need a professional for. The barrier is an illusion. ------------------------------------------- To blatantly dangerous and false statements: > You always have the power to change your mood for the better. From another one of this user's posts: > In the last 50 years clinical psychologists have figured out effective psychological treatments for almost all mental health problems and manualized them so a professional can know or easily look up the best way to treat a disorder. and: > I regularly meet patients who are very depressed when we first meet who manage to overcome their depression in a couple of weeks. Which would be like 2 appointments? I would place serious doubt on anything this person claims. |
