"How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of heaven! Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven."

    Stocisim is related to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (the less fun CBT) which is not only touted as the gold standard for psychological treatment, but fits in perfectly with neoliberal subjectivity of "you must be mindful and resilient under late capitalist hellworld"

      I used my works counseling support (cause it's free and I felt like it'd be a good step) and this is essentially what they pushed. She actually recited the AA prayer in my last one and I broke and kinda snapped at the councilor. Never went back. When I told her it wasn't working for me and I think it's actually making things worse, she implied I was uncomfortable with opening up with women and should use a male councilor...

      I've been hearing all my therapist friends talk about DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) - so I think this might be changing? I'm not really familiar with either, though. I've avoided psychologists for my whole life.
