[@rayne6719]

Why have a therapist who doesn't care about me when I can inhale computer duster until the cops do?

Hard to find the good stuff without the bittering agent these days.

The part about substances was interesting. I've been sober for over five years. Before getting sober I had never had anything resembling social anxiety (I had other issues just not that one). Immediately after getting sober I was terrified of talking to people, I walked around horrified that someone might want to have a conversation with me. I've worked a lot on it but even today I feel uncomfortable in public, I don't make friends and I never feel at ease unless I'm alone. I'm still far better off now than I was on drugs but the new found anxiety was and still is very strange to me.

Love the authenticity from you and your staff!

I really like Dr Drew's perspectives on how to approach therapy. I think this is a very good video for mental health awareness.

[@rainbowrandolph5218]

As a social worker I can relate to this guy for sure

Hey Dr Drew, As a person who has dealt with a ridiculous amount of trauma , resulting in life-long self punishment and a lifetime of people pleasing. There are people who feel good talking to a therapist. Not all the time 😮 you, we should all be challenged, but if your issue is genuinely about self worth, is it okay to enjoy therapy?

PhD Licensed Psychologist here--I hate to say it, but I really agree with Dr. Drew on the degree letters, MD, PhD, PsyD, and LCSW therapists tend to be so much better. MD psychiatrists can be bad if they don't take a more psychoanalytic or humanistic approach. I've been disappointed and troubled by so many colleagues or trainees with LPC (licensed professional counselors); they just don't have the rigor in their training programs for selection of trainees or the comprehensiveness of training either.

[@Dee-Eddy]

Well, yeah. I have resistance... Certainly not going to stop now..

[@gavinsmith6108]

I must be a schizophrenic because I love CBT

[@MarkThrive]

6:30 ...LCSW's tend to make the best trauma therapist...

So is everyone that questions therapy a narcissist?
