If you need to see a therapist breh, use psychtoday as a tool to find a therapist in your area.
then google their name and you'll usually find their place of practice and number to schedule a zoom of in person meeting.
not sure what you are dealing with, but I recommend you pick up a copy of "feeling great" by david burns.
Thanks
I have a 7 day free trial on the Calm app. I'm really thinking about just paying the 70 for one year because it's really essential. There's everything from meditation to mindfulness exercises, advice, and audio sleeping aids
Lebron has a playlist on there called Train Your Mind. It's really interesting to me because the way he explains mindfulness, emotion management, and other things he uses to "train his mind" directly speaks to me
I played football in high school and college so he speaks my language, allowing me to see the value of mindfulness through the eyes of an athlete like him. I'm also a fan of his so its amazing to hear him talk about how he uses these tools to stay at an elite level
It's not only relatable to athletes but you can draw parallels from his playlist to any walk of life. You can be a normal guy and get something out of what he says in his audio clips. He said something that may sound corny to some of yall but it's so true
"Before you win the game on the court , you must win the emotional/ mental game in your mind"
The "game on the court" in the literal sense but I also took from the quote that life itself is a game and we can't "win" unless we love and find peace within ourselves. Mindfulness is one of the greatest tools we can use and Lebron made that fact finally click for me. His Calm app sessions are on youtube so I'll post this one if any of yall want to check it out. I highly recommend it to everyone

Wrong thread
What makes you think you have a low IQ?I think I have a low IQ.
I have ADHD, don't really know anything and I can't focus on anything to save my life.
I'm not really that smart, I'm forgetful, it takes me a little longer to comprehend things than other people, I can't get focused when I need to, etc.

That just sounds like ADHD. No need to insult yourself.

I've never had da pleasure of having one. These peckerwood and peckerwoodette therapist can't identify or relate with our experiences. Although, one I had some years back likely help me save my life.

The black man is always targeted.
Just got done arguing with a group of 5 closed minded individuals for the past 3 hours.
Shyt isn’t just worth it. No matter how right you are, once people are set in an opinion, regardless of how wrong it is.
They won’t listen. It’s just a waste of mental energy to try to get someone to accept the truth.
I’m stressed and embarrassed that I allowed myself to be put in such a position
But I’m glad I stood up for what’s real and I stayed firm when being gaslighted by 5 people at once
