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
Yea let's not have a bunch of internet strangers posting about stuff they're not qualified to talk about. People can always easily read about this online elsewhere from actual scientists
If the internet took this to heart, it would instantly collapse to 1% of its current usage
edit: not trying to be snarky or anything, I don't instantly disagree, I just think that it's okay to develop this sort of nuanced understanding of how to best approach self-development and community-development as, well, a community, using the theory and advice of people more learned than us, rather than dismissing the concept of the comm out of hand
