Therapeer - A site I won't recommend for Emotional Support
So I decided to sign up on this site, to see where I can give emotional support to people.
There was this adult female claiming to have been abused as a child...she said she did not want to go to therapy, and wanted to know what is her alternatives.
I told her that she can go on a spiritual journey to resolve her issues, that she can overcome the issues herself if she really wanted to.
I also told her that therapists often times do more harm than good.
I told her I was also a victim of abuse and can relate.
All she was interested in is hearing people telling her what she wanted to hear, she cussed out other abuse survivors who had 10 years more time to heal.
Another user suggested group therapy... I said it would be impossible with people like that, people who like to dissociate instead of healing, people whose peace rely on hearing what other people tell them so they don't have to deal with their own thoughts, people who cuss out survivors of abuse who managed to come to a place where instead of crying over their problems all day, seeking the wrong type of attention to distract them from their problems, some actually learned how to be still and deal with it in a mature way.
Well long story short the little chit decided to report me, and I got banned over this one stupid incident, because of an adolescent who pretended to ask for alternatives for therapy. I wasn't even a member of that site for one week. The admins were obviously very emotionally immature themselves to not be able to see how the reporting was unwarranted.
I was branded as insensitive to people's problems and making a joke of therapy.
If you want to get gaslighted by people who pity themselves every day, all day, go join that site - there is a lot people pretending to be counsellors that distract themselves from their own problems by pretending to know how help others.
That site should be renamed as the "dissociation club" with the slogan: a place where we don't heal, only cry and talk about sitting in therapy.
That site will never see me again, what was supposed to be a helpful open minded community is truly a closed-minded community, with healing on its lowest priority list.
