Well, yes, if you think therapy is inherently bad, it makes sense you would disagree. I don't know why you need to call my posts creepy or disturbing though. If that's your idea of venting then fine but it feels mean spirited to vent at someone about their post just because you disagree. I feel like you can easily express an alternate viewpoint without that verbiage because to me it feels hurtful.
Thanks for this!
