A thread of the posts by @cait.bsky.social. They read as follows:
I had my first talk therapy session with my new therapist and she hit me with the “you’re very self-aware” ☹️
not the “pleasure to have in class” of therapy
that’s right, I know all the tools and have developed countertools so they no longer work. welcome to thunderdome
Ask you doctor if stoicism is right for you.
Stoicism is just sparkling loneliness.
And life is just wasted time before death.
I saw it as the philosophy of the (wage) slave.
I wish the dead could write - I’m sure they’d make a better argument for checking out than trying stoicism.
Stoicism is just dissociating philosophically
And happiness is just your brain misrepresenting misery.
I wanted to smack this one coworker so damn hard. He shouldn’t shut up about it like it was the answer to all my problems, and I’m just standing there like, “You mean the thing I’ve been doing literally most of my life?!”
