ASMR |Court Ordered Therapy 

There's a particular favorite ASMR video by GibiASMR that centers around asking odd questions that don't require too much thinking and won't stress you out(ASMR Therapist Asks You Odd Questions, I think it's called). While not exactly realistic, I highly recommend it if you like this sort of therapist content :D

Damn you are lucky to have psychology knowledgeable parents that don’t just use it to manipulate the fuck out of you!

Wow, thank you. 😊

@@ASMRJeremiah it's the truth 🥺🙏

@@ASMRJeremiah yes sir I agree this is better than prison. Thank you 🤣

"No more tomfoolery, no more ballyhoo." - George Plimpton Man, Robin Williams did such a legendary job in that movie!

Yes, now you've said it, I can certainly see Jeremiah in that role, no discredit to Robin of course who clearly gave a powerhouse performance. Great movie. 👍

What a unique perspective! Honored that I was accurate. ;)

Hi Misha, I think that mental health is for everyone regardless of whether we're in crisis. You can think of it in the same way that we sometimes see a doctor for a checkup even though we might not have a serious medical condition. It's actually a great idea to regularly invest in our mental well-being before we're even in a crisis. A couple of suggestions would be to either journal or make a list of the reasons you are interested in therapy. Perhaps it's to understand yourself better, or to see where you might want to make changes, or to work toward increasing feelings of well-being, find ways to practice self-care, or just process what is on your mind. Your thoughts and feelings are just as valid as everyone else. After you make your list, you could take it to the therapist and even ask them to help you set treatment goals. That is part of their role. Lastly, you might want to look into different types of therapy. There is psychotherapy, DBT, CBT, art therapy, expressive therapy...I would encourage you to find someone who feels like a good match for you. There are even peer support staff at some mental health clinics. There are lots of choices and you deserve to take care of you! If you try again and still feel hesitant, I would encourage you to share those feelings in therapy. Best wishes.

i strongly believe in mental health as a preventative! there is nothing wrong with seeking therapy without crisis or prevalent issues. as for your concern, there are special clinics that do focus on trauma or other specialized areas but since you don’t feel as you need them, you won’t be taking resources away dont worry 👍🏻 maybe even try something like betterhelp which is made for these reasons

Thank you for the thorough responses. My experiences with these services so far seem to contradict, but I will try to take what you say to heart.

@@MishaShivers im sorry to hear that! as mental health case manager, the verbiage you use is important to explain why u need services (essentially they have to diagnose u with something so that they can bill insurance). if you’re feeling lost and “thoughts are muddled” that should be the main narrative you should advocate for yourself for services. dont let them tell u otherwise!

i'd look into cptsd if you haven't, cause even though i couldn't possibly diagnose you, feeling like you're "fundamentally broken" is a huge symptom and the good thing about that being the issue is cptsd IS treatable even though almost everyone with it believes it's not. i hope you find healing and please also talk to a therapist if you want! you're NOT too broken for it and deserve to be happy as much as everyone else ❤
