lf you see a Christian therapist you have to get past their ignorance and bias. No small task.
I recommend reading - it's always been my best therapy (followed pretty closely by writing, as my many posts here attest).
Read people that challenge everything you've ever thought. Then, read the people that challenge THEM. Get my drift? Then the two-bit, tin-horn wanna-be satraps like Nee and Nee can't rule your mind.
Challenge yourself. Be willing to challenge everything you've ever thought. Overturn all the shopkeepers' tables in your brain. Drive out the sheep & the pigeons. Throw the money on the floor.
There is writing out there that will challenge everything that once seemed real. Find it & face it - don't be afraid. Then- important - go to the writings that critically challenge THAT writing.
Lee taught us to be passive; the Minions' One Publication Policy chained us to inertia and fear. A nice, safe cage.
