“Talk therapy was useful for me to escape a similar mind set.”
“I've also tried life-style changes and positive activities to counter these problems, with likewise little to no improvement. Diet improvement, running, working out, meditation, talk therapy, to name a few. And zilch.”
“+ 3 talk therapies going to the root of my issues and 3rd one treating cognitive-behaviorally. Well it did a shit, for real, nothing.”
“I spent 10 years in talk therapy (not super helpful)”

- Social anxiety - Phenibut not helping, something else? ↗
