We still have prejudices about psychologists, like many years ago, but now there are an order of magnitude less of them. Today's generation is less and less likely to seek advice from a girlfriend / friend and more and more often turn to a specialist.
What for?
For support! We are not accepted everywhere; then in the family: “You are no good for anything! Look, others over there can, and you? ", Then the partner:" Where is the money? Is that all you brought? And why did I just marry you ?! Here I am - a fool! ", Then the boss:" Your report is wrong, you do not know how to do anything yourself, you need to explain everything! You should always be supervised to sit with you as with a small child. " The person becomes like a hunted mouse. He has nowhere to hide, nowhere to rest.
Until now, many, instead of timely contacting a specialist, are engaged in "a kind of self-treatment", namely, they go into various types of addictions: alcohol, food, sex, drugs, sports. All this very quickly raises the level of endorphins in the blood and makes us TEMPORARILY happy. And then what?
A person needs a person, and this will never change, no matter how we are assured of this by the mass media and no matter what society (tablets, phones, virtual reality) is substituted for us.
Only live, "supportive and encouraging" communication can truly change life, lives. The key thought is that communication should be positive. You should not be in the company of dejected and tortured people. Such communication will definitely not enrich you, will not help, but on the contrary - it will drive you into depression even more, which can then turn into completely negative thoughts (about the uselessness of being and the "I" itself).
Incredible relief and magical transformations occur with a person who comes to see a psychologist, when, on the phrase: "I feel bad," he hears a consoling one: "I understand you."
