RE: Psychology Addict # 27 | Discussing Misconceptions about Psychology

in #psychology6 years ago

I love your post very much, it is very interesting, nutritious and reflective since I change my way of seeing psychology. In the experiment that was done with people who used antidepressants and cognitive therapy was applied, I could understand that antidepressants are not the definitive solution to treat depression, since the people with this affection should go to therapies with specialists in the matter that will help them to leave their depression and teach them techniques that help them face a relapse. The depression today is very frequent, due to our lifestyle and the prejudices that afflict us in our society. A factor that influences us is that of wanting to satisfy others leaving our values, principles and thoughts below, and that affects us directly, first because people are never satisfied with what we do for them and secondly because we leave our essence of what we really are on our side to satisfy them.

Something that happened to me and changed my life was the death of my father, he smoked and died of cancer in the larynx caused by the cigarette, I also smoked and the experience of seeing my father suffer and die because of that disease. He made me think in time and gave me the strength to quit and be able to guide others who have the vice of cigarettes.

Congratulations, am really happy for you, it is very hard to stop habits, you are lucky to have learnt from your father

Hello @urbano579 thank you very much for leaving such a well-informed comment about our mental distress and the harsh reality of today's life style.

I also would like to thank you for the incredibly important message you left about the dangers of smoking. I know so many people who still smoke (can you believe it?) and think they are immune to the terrible effects of cigarettes! So, you comment is a very valid eye opener.

All the best :)

thank you very much @abigail-dantes and we will continue to help all those people who need an orientation to stop the vices or especially the smoking
