“I hate reality just as much as the next guy, but it’s still the only place to get a decent meal”
- Groucho Marx
Generally speaking as someone who has a psych degree, therapy coping techniques also operate on the assumption that what ever you’re going through is temporary, or already over. As a whole psychiatrists really don’t know what to do with people who can’t escape their situation. I think, personally, this is why so many people come to hate therapy after they’ve tried it. Everyone around you says these people can help you. Then the best advice they can come up with is “well, have you tried just not being stressed\in an abusive situation?”
