Are psychologists a meme or do they actually help?
I think I might have depression because I really never feel happy even though I have everything I'd ever need, but I'm too much of a faggot to go see a psychologist either because my dumb-ass brain convinces me they can't help or because everyone I know, who has been to one, has been put on pills that fucked up their life even more.
So I guess this is more like two questions, do psychologists help at all and can I possibly unfuck my brain without one
Concerning mental healty, if you think it helps it does.
Just give it a try.
PS: psychiatrists are the ones that use pills on their treatments. If you are unsure, curious and a little paranoid, you may aswell investigate more about what school does the therapist you'll choose relies on and what is psychoanalysis.

Well, yes and no. I went to therapy when I was suicidal and admitting the problems I had helped me. Basically just stating aloud to other person where I was going wrong helped me realize it myself. The therapy itself didn't do much, so I only went for a few months, but it pointed me in the right direction so I could help myself. I'd recommend trying it, it might help you, it might not. But if you're depressed, you haven't got much left to lose here.
It helps. Really. I've been going to one since almost a year. And i feel so much better. Was pretty depressed and didnt even had the energy to find a job or to go outside at all. I know much about myself now and whats the reason for certain emotions i have. Its still a long way to go tho.
Most people cant comprehend how much control our subconscious has over us.
If you want to get help. Go to a professional who knows what he is doing.

>I really never feel happy even though I have everything I'd ever need
This is just what life feels like, anon. A psychologist can't "fix" this for you. You're mistaken if you think that constant happiness is the natural state of human existence, and any unhappiness is a "problem."
