It’s really easy to say “go to therapy,” but that ignores the realities of accessing it.
It’s not cheap. There’s long waits involved. It’s very likely your first therapist or even first few therapists won’t be a good fit and you’ll need to shop around. Sometimes you get lucky and you find a good fit on the first try. And sometimes you find a hundred bucks in a gutter, too.
I view “get therapy” as a mid-term goal. It’s something that you should be working on but it’s not something that fixes things right now.
No yeah I’m doing actual cognitive therapy, not “therapy” as in finding myself as a late teen early 20’s with my first trips.
I don’t care about people being spiritual, but when they claim their spirituality is superior to actual objective medical science, without being able to reason how or why, then they’re just being religious.
Guys need to learn how to deal with their emotions. Repressing them does not make them go away.
Go to therapy. It saves and improves lifes.

I’ve had a therapist for >3 years.
I think MDMA is far superior.
(I would enjoy combining the two, but the law doesn’t allow that yet so.)
((Also it’s been almost 10 years since I took ecstasy, so it’s not like I’m an addict or anything.))
(((In fact, some serotonergic drugs actually have anti-addictive properties, believe it or not.)))
just got to find the right therapist (to combine it woth pyscedelics)
Sometimes it’s a “church”

It is therapy, not “therapy”. There’s a reason I put the word “church” in quotes.
