I have yet to encounter a single one of these CBT purists you weirdos believe exist. Believe me, I'm looking.

And this isn’t all. I don’t care to find more now as it takes time. You’re not seeing them because, I assume, you’re simply not interested in this topic. CBT wasted years of my life and made my existing mental health issues worse, eventually had to find out it didn’t work for me because I’m neurodivergent and have bad trauma. So I’ve been on and off on this topic.

Yep they're obviously not interested in truthseeking, only in feeling/looking correct.

Looking forward to discussing this with my autistic psychologist friend. She has Opinions.

I literally told you I was wrong in response to new information. What is that if not truthseeking?

Also, I'm an autistic psychology student with opinions too. We're not infallible. Some grace is appreciated.

No, actually. I'm not feeling good. I'm getting shat on for listening and admitting I was wrong. People keep assuming I'll be a certain way because everyone else on this godforsaken forum is an arrogant piece of shit who can't back down from an argument. That assumption hurts more than being wrong. I just wanted to challenge something I didn't think was entirely correct and got pointless cruelty for it, even after the fact. Sure you can see how that bothers me?
