Isn’t some therapy just counter productive, because they insist in treating BAD emotions like social anxiety and depression’.
These fundamental assumptions about these emotions are implicitly considered bad and something to ‘get rid’ of. Therefore, a psychologist for instance, only reinforcing the thought about the emotion? Unless he states there is absolutely nothing wrong with you. You are perfectly Oke. Do not even try to get rid of these emotions. Look at what they tell you.

Isn’t it partly a cultural aspect that we live in a culture of individualism and status that breeds these kinds of assumptions about social anxiety and depression and creates a form of toxic shame when you even experience these?!

However, my social anxiety etc. is a result of childhood emotional abandonment. I aware when it happens, Yet I want to get ‘rid of it’.

But I have been thinking about your enlightenment videos. If that is true, it means this whole social anxiety is a fiction? Something I bought into. Though I suffer from it. haha. this is very tough to see.

thx in advance,

Kev
