Now that I’ve caught you with the clickbait title,

Basically every post has included some form of toxic self-hate, minus one or two mentioning exercise. While I do like being able to confront these in the first place, the purported goals and name of this community gives people who are giving the exact wrong advice far too much credibility, and the last thing these people need is a comment with the most upbears regurgitating individualistic self-help concepts at them.

If we’re going to keep this sort of community around, I suggest doing some serious research and basing it off of DBT, and integrating serious critiques of CBT style mental healthcare and improvement.

I am just some random nerd who is terrible at self-improvement at general, so I understand taking this with some serious doubt. But I just had to get this off my chest.

Thank you, WithoutFurtherBelay

    Some incredible self-victimization here. Giving good advice requires tact, which a lot of people lack. Not all advice is worth listening to.

      I just think that hexbear is not a place where you shit thoughtlessly on people like reddit or facebook comment sections. Considering we're all leftists and are #goodpeople, this place should be different to you and if it's not, maybe leave?

      Be the bigger person if it's bad advice or alternatively don't ask an internet forum if you're going to be picky.
