@antifahnen @distelfliege oooh that sounds great. i guess i've just had some bad experience with a psychoanalyst ("a", not "my", thankfully) who was super into freud and kept burdening people with shitty and uncalled for / unconsensual interpretations of things they said in friendly and mentor-ly contexts. good to know that that's not a core part of the actual thing :)

@distelfliege @antifahnen yes i also think that's really interesting! i'm drawn to the hands-on aspects but i'm worried about some other things so yes, interested :)

@antifahnen @distelfliege (sitting in a different chair, getting into their posture) and saying what you think they might think about a certain issue. but we only got to that once, and while it did something positive for me at first, i had the impression that what i said then was kind of used against me because the focus seemed to shift to "100% understanding that person" instead of what that meant for me.

@distelfliege @antifahnen mhm, I don't think we actually did a lot of what's typical for it. it's apparently focused on relationships and roles and stuff. for me that meant sometimes choosing stones/little plushies/little figures to represent people in my life or aspects of myself and… pretty much just putting them on the table and talking about them. one typical thing seems to be imagining you're some other person

@distelfliege @antifahnen the therapist that I just stopped seeing does psychodrama x) but I didn't know that before the first appointment (only had her email address), and I liked her so I gave it a try. i don't think the method was the only issue, but I could have guessed that it wouldn't be great either.

@antifahnen ah, ok. that sounds great! :>

@antifahnen oh, psychoanalysis is one of the types i'm not really considering for me. but, thank you. does the .___. mean that you don't like it that much? or is it re answering questions?

@antifahnen maybe! I don't really know whether I'd like something before I've tried it though x) (except for some types that are definitely out of the question :D)

@antifahnen @distelfliege hopefully :) but not right now, I need a break from all that.

@antifahnen I don't see them anymore :/ mostly because they always made a big deal about how good and important it is to talk about issues, but never actually changed anything that I said didn't work for me m)

ah probably because it was never clear to me whether the people who used this word considered it a good or a bad thing

in retrospect i think it was about 60/40 in favour of pure excitement, and I'm not going to judge tbh *is super excited whenever some more or less exaggerated "we live in an actual cyberpunk dystopia" piece appears*

I keep reading "post privacy" not as "the privacy/visibility of the things you post" but as "privacy is a thing of the past" and have to think of 2011 twitter for some reason

tfw you stop feeling terrible, but you know that your reasoning for feeling terrible totally holds up and you actually have a few things in your life that you might want to solve, but you still have no idea how, and so you start to ignore it all again~
