Cock and Ball Torture therapy?

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I think even psychologists cackle about that one now, but it's Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and it's actually quite effective with treating certain personality disorders if the program is adhered to. Compared to "that's all bunk, brain scans/computer comparisons are all you need bro, trust me bro" dismissive claims backed by nothing, one has actually helped millions of people.

It was a genuine question. I am not a native speaker so I know a different set of specialized terms for this type of thing.

It's all good.

Whether or not it may be useful to you, looking up Cognitive Behavioral Therapy may be interesting to you all the same.
