CBT can be harmful in many cases, including to many neurodivergent people. Just often worth being cautious and looking into alternatives.
That's why I only use CBD.... especially the gummies!
They’re referring to the other CBT acronym
Maybe that CBT is also harmful to neurodivergent people.
I’d guess it’s harmful to about half of the population, though some are fine with that
Interesting. I did CBT for a couple of years and it was mostly about reframing extreme thoughts— eg you catch yourself thinking "I'm unlovable" and remind yourself it's more like "my last two relationships ended poorly".
It wasn't exactly what I needed but I didn't see much potential for harm. Is there more to CBT than what I did, or are there situations where that type of thinking can make things worse?
