Where did I ever say that? I literally just said they’re resistant to changing their thought patterns because of this exact mindset and the number 1 place they’re going to have that mindset challenged its in a therapy office. The reason I know this is how people often respond to professionals is because I’ve had to learn a bunch of workarounds to help people be more open to discussing it (like I said above). Even the resource I’ve been working on for people struggling to afford therapy leads with resources to try to help them find one. But when you get in that room with that therapist, they’re going to try to get you to change your thought patterns, and if you react like you are now, you’re going to waste your copay.
To be perfectly honest it seems like I hit a sore spot and you subconsciously chose to read it in the way that offended you most because like most of my patients your thought patterns are more focused on preserving themselves than they are on helping you, and you’re not ready to admit that. Which is what it is, recovery doesn’t happen until you’re ready. Its the same psychological bug that keeps people believing in shit like qanon; admitting you’re wrong can be 20x harder than just admitting that you’ve been causing irreparable harm to yourself (and in the case of qanon, other people) and that you need to change. The human brain would literally rather keep hurting itself than admit that it’s wrong and that’s a pretty well known fact at this point.
