with more life experience

Because having existed for a few more years, which is called "life" experience, means older people are so smart /s

If having more "life" experience meant being wiser and smarter, then the majority of adults wouldn't be religious, nor would they be following the mob like some robot that is programmed to be a certain way. That's not the case sadly, most adults are less intelligent than literal 12 year olds. I mean, at the age of 10 I knew that there's no such a thing as a "god" or a "soul", and wanted to go against the mob mentality

While you see most adults following the herd with no questions asked, and popping out kids one after another in the name of their imaginary friend, just so they would brainwash them and increase the number of the adherents of their religion (that's the whole reason behind their "be fruitful and multiply", to increase their numbers in the most pathetic way possible. They know they can't increase their numbers via rational discussions, because their beliefs are nonsense. So they resort to becoming baby factories).

They're less intelligent than a 10 year old.

Just because older people existed longer, and worked boring jobs, doesn't make them smarter than those younger than them.

And if you can't get this then you're just proving my point, eh.

This isn't what my therapist tells me to do. Most of this advice is useless and shallow. And don't get me wrong, there are plenty of shitty therapists out there and I had to go through a couple to find the one I have now. She was the first one to diagnose me correctly and get at the root of everything.

I guess it depends on the reasons why someone is depressed for instance. Someone could be depressed because they have financial issues, can't stand university because it's just not for them but their family makes them attend uni even if they don't want to, etc. Therapy for these people is useless, and a waste of time. They may talk and talk about their financial issues, their hating uni, etc, but after leaving the therapy sessions - the issues are still there as always and the therapists can do nothing to solve them, so there's no way to end the cycle of depression.

For the depressed people who are bullied, in homophobic environments, etc, I don't see how therapy helps them when they are still bullied or in homophobic environments, only after the bullies are stopped, and they are given assistance to run away from their homophobic environments, the therapy could help them a bit.

But I think the depressed and self-hating individuals should be willing to change and be helped first. No amount of therapy can help someone that does not want to be helped.

Thank you

Don't know how to feel about the new years, only 5 days left to 2021 and I wish the year wouldn't end so fast, time really flies 😩
