The kind of resentment you’re talking about is universal. Found in any field of discipline—from doctors to teachers, construction workers to bloggers. Anyone who is a slave to their pride will resent another person telling them what to do.
It’s all over the place. The antidote is humility, and true humility has only one source.
As far as LCSW’s and psychologists being the backbone of mental health—I’ve heard of these kinds of therapists practicing necromancy during the session. Psychiatrists wouldn’t touch this kind of thing. And many if not most therapists impose on their patients Buddhist religious tenets disguised as standard therapy (known as “mindfulness”).
I spent 5 years in therapy mainly for PTSD and secondary with my G.A.D. The therapist got me through the PTSD but even as a long time experienced in anxiety disorders I had him stumped LOL. It was a learning experience for both. I taught him about Vestibular Disorders induced anxiety. Oh he was a skeptic at first. Then I had him do something to humor me. He had a group session elsewhere of anxiety patients. I had him ask them how many of them had feet pain? About half did he said. How many avoid TV, places like Walmart, Home Depot, etc? Same ones did. Vestibular Damage {Inner ear} usually comes early in life pre teens caused by genetic defect, sinus allergies, chronic ear infections etc.
Most Vestibular patients have balance and coordination issues. Some obvious some are not. I can go to a little league or sandlot baseball game and likely tell you which ones have the damage. They swing early, late, duck away, or don't swing at all and it is consistent with no improvement.
Poor mom and dad could not understand how I could destroy any shoes they bought me in less than a month by breaking the sides over. But by age 7 they knew I was only one eye functional. By age 12 the coordination issue became serious enough to require therapy. The reason the shoes wore out is I walk off balance. Now I have to have special made insoles. That's also the reason my therapist other patients feet hurt. In the mean time They also thought I had ADD ADHD and this was before the Ritalin craze began. That was in the mid to late 60's.
In my adulthood at about age 36-38 I put it all together and linked the allergies, Inner Ear, coordination, vision issues, the misdiagnosed ADD ADHD and the anxiety all together. All are of the same origin.
Look up Central Auditory Processing Disorders aka C.A.P.D. There is the ADD/ADHD epidemic LOL. Some a very small percentage of kids have true ADD/ADHD. A high portion have C.A.P.D. and the cognitive behavioral symptoms are very close. But the ADD ADHD meds won't help. A hyperactive kid with ADD given a strong cup of coffee will calm down. A kid with CAPD won't change. But why the epidemic?
Monetary pressures factor in certainly. But up till recently as in less than the past decade kids were not being tested by audiologist or speech pathologist for CAPD. The epidemic trigger due to one simple word. "Technology". I grew up on black and white TV. Only board games and played outside. I really didn't start getting bad till in my thirties when things like store alarms, back up alarms, constant cranked up in store paging etc. It's simple. It's sensory bombardment and the overload in a damaged processing system trigger Cognitive responses. The extent varies greatly. I'm in the worse case scenario category. These things also trigger myoclonic seizures in my shoulder blades and neck as many as a dozen a minute on a bad day. The good news is I'm now at over 50% hearing loss LOL.
Kids today are bombarded everywhere they go with intense auditory and visual input is where I'm coming from.
The PTSD hit at the same time my sensory processing system finally reached a breaking point and that complicated it considerably. Some consider PTSD to be B.S. In a years time my first wife died age 23 of a heart attack. Months later a woman I had began dating went quadriplegic while we were at the mall. She nearly died as well. Three months later we were married and she had three more months spinal rehab. A few years later my step daughter was in a bad wreck I went to the scene of. I saw the RS and paramedics covering her body still entrapped in her car and I assumed the worse. My wife twice afterward had close calls health wise. The straw that broke the camels back was my wreck. A small fender bender for my old Chevy K-5 but it totaled a Honda Civic that rear ended me. No problem till I was checking the driver and saw a baby in a car seat up front eyes closed. Believe it of not it slept through it.
I began have sight sound sensitivity and concentration issues plus the severe spasms/seizures. Retirement came at age 37. The twenty years since have been a learning process. BTW there is no pill for CAPD except possibly a mild antihistamine.
