Comment on Is Therapy-Speak Making Us Selfish?

Comments

Therapy-speak is exhausting and patronizing and so are the people that use it, no thanks.

It's useful when you're dealing with an abuser or know someone who is.

Other than that it's pretty exhausting. It's especially exhausting when someone is using it to hide the fact that they themselves are in fact, the abuser.

The male feminist who's actually a rapist, the person "Working on themselves" and posting about going to therapy while continuing to do very awful things, etc.
