Therapy just wants you to be back as a member of society. I don't like society. It just sees me as a part of the economic machine. A stone to be squeezed for blood.
Shameless plug for !Reprieve@lemmy.zip for male identifying people to talk about these and all other issues with other men without any judgement or dumbass alpha male bullshit. It is meant to be literally this - a reprieve from the outside world. All of the people posting here hopeless and alone is why this place exists now.
My best friend spent a week in the hospital with a life-threatening condition. Besides the almost dying part, it was the most relaxing and life-refocusing event of their adult life and they're grateful to have experienced it. A forced reset and some compulsory solitude can be a blessing sometimes.
Were I to ever go to prison, I think I would personally love to get some solitary confinement time.
Solitude? Damn, are your hospitals made out of gold as well?
If you're unlucky over here you get up to 7 other patiens in the same, unventilated room. Including patients who have air-transmittable infections because why not?
Air conditioning doesn't exist in hospitals either by the way. That's a luxury hospitals aren't obligated to (and as such never) provide. Enjoy dehydrating in 30°C+ rooms.
I'd much rather just stay in solitude in my home for a week.

Honestly if I had the means and skills to survive that semi-comfortably, I'd be down for making that an annual tradition.
I’ve always wanted to sail.

therapy might get covered but costs money somewhere along the way. it might also lose you a job for 'unrelated' reasons.
you presumably get paid while lost at sea if you are part of the crew
Therapy, trying to make you seem ok with the absolute bullshit you have to deal with which you know is wrong.
If things didn't get bad, I could absolutely see myself saying the same thing.
So jelly 😌
I think I'd rather be lost at sea than be anywhere near any portion of our current civilization.
Here’s my thing with therapy. I know the issue, i know what’s wrong with me, and I know what I’m supposed to do to fix it, i just don’t. I can’t see how therapy will help beyond what I’ve got
You can talk about why you dont want to fix it. Maybe there's something there. Sometimes there's just a hump you need to get over and wont unless you push yourself.
If not you can kind of live in that space for a while and see if the barrier is even real in the first place.
Depends on which is cheaper tbh.
Have you tried going to therapy?
Of course I've tried going to, there's a sea.
Would pay to "get lost at sea for 29 days".
hey we need a rest from capitalism and zoom meetings.
As someone in n therapy. Sure, yes. Its not great.
I just go camping or backpacking out of data range. But his way works too.
Is this the guy who fell off a boat and claimed he built a raft and ate a stick and befriended a dolphin or something? There was a tumblr post about this a while back that was quite funny, there were a lot of inconsistencies in the guys story.
