• Hey Guest,

    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

What would you need in a therapeutic setting to be able to benefit from it? I'm not referring to fully healing or aiming for (being able to) staying alive. But could you imagine a specific scenario or a setting where you feel therapy could help alleviate some of your suffering and help you to get a little bit better?
What would you need in such a space, and what factors would make the difference for you?

I used to find my creative job the most therapeutic thing in my life. It's not working so much now though.

I suppose in a make belief world though, I'd have this job but in a more suitable working environment and with a lot less pressure. Somewhere in a beautiful natural setting I could live and work. Reasonable amounts of time to get things done in. Generous budgets. A self cleaning space! Some of my meals prepared for me and all my domestic needs taken care of... by robots maybe. I don't think I'd be comfortable with people. I'd like my creative friends to be thriving too in their own businesses although, I prefer working alone.

Really though, maybe even that wouldn't be enough. I'm just tired of life. I don't even have the same excitement I used to have about work.

Honestly, for me, just being able to talk to somebody that actually understands me and my struggles is therapeutic enough for me. I also find it somewhat therapeutic as well when people say that it's unethical to force me to stay alive (because it really is). Therapists right now can't ever understand my issues and situation because they have a massive pro life bias to them which means that they automatically see life as good and death as bad. Of course it takes more than that to understand me but I'd say that the baseline is to at least acknowledge that death can't be bad for the one who dies and that life is absolutely horrific. Most people aren't able to understand me though. If even a lot of people here can't understand me, a pro life therapist has no chance at all

Bare minimum, the number one thing I'd need for therapy to work for me would probably be a 100% ironclad guarantee that no matter what I do or say then I'm not going to have my rights as an adult citizen stripped from me just because people are afraid I might kill myself.

Secondly I would probably need someone who can handle my anger because I feel it is a repressed emotion of mine that when it comes out, gets pretty ugly. Whoever is on the other side would have to be impossibly patient while somehow also able to be that way without escalating me further since that could just make me more mad.

But this is all way too much to ask for just one person so I figure it's just easier for me to be dead anyway.
