I definitely think that prescription drugs, like antidepressants, are prescribed so cavalierly, anyone can get anything, but I need it. I do think that it needs to work hand and hand with therapy.
Shopping at any level is a bit of therapy for my medulla oblongata.
To go into therapy is an adventure, not really to iron anything out.
I recommend the same therapies for all humans with HIV. There is no reason to believe that physiologic responses to therapy will vary across lines of class, culture, race or nationality.
I have therapy. Every day. I read a bit of Freud; I try to be a better person. Every day.
Couples Therapy’ is pretty big for me because it’s opening the door to a new audience – a hip-hop following, which I feel is a bit more judgmental toward the LGBT community.
There’s almost an element of selfies that is like photo therapy. People look upon themselves in a picture and then they critique themselves without knowing so, and that’s what’s happening on mass on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.
In Sept of 2013 I was diagnosed as having an aggressive form of stage 2 endometrial cancer. I underwent a rigorous treatment program that included a radical hysterectomy followed with chemo and radiation therapy.
Dancing is my therapy. I also try to meditate every morning and take several two-hour yoga classes a week at my favorite yoga studio, Urban Flow.
Therapy is so personal but it can be a really amazing tool so long as you are not forced into it.
Writing a book about yourself is like therapy, and you go ‘Oh My God, that’s the reason that happened.’ Writing about it, you’re forced to really examine things.
I like to dabble in different things, but music is my first love. It connects to me in a way my side projects don’t because it’s so personal. I write the words. Music is like my diary. It’s my therapy.
I definitely don’t need therapy in life because I have gone through every little corner of my life.
I’m not really gay, and I can’t sit here and say that I am, because that’s not real and that’s not genuine. But I also can’t sit here and say that I’m straight. This is something I’ve come to the conclusion through therapy and from being honest with myself. I am bisexual.
Therapy can help you grow. Fears will just disappear.
I am always thinking about writing music; my wife is constantly asking me: ‘Is there any way you can turn off the music part of your brain for a minute?’ but I really can’t! It’s my form of therapy.
I think therapy can be very revealing and useful for actors. You start to dig deep and understand certain mechanisms that you hadn’t been aware of before and, you know, meanings behind things.
Growing up sucks, doesn’t it? I understand why people wouldn’t want to get old – but it’d be one thing if we became a culture obsessed with eating right, doing yoga, going to therapy and becoming at one with ourselves. That be great. But we don’t do that. We seem to be obsessed with all the wrong ways to stay young.
I think everybody I’ve seen has come from some other therapy, and almost invariably, it’s very much the same thing: the therapist is too disinterested, a little too aloof, a little too inactive. They’re not really interested in the person; he doesn’t relate to the person.
If I were in the middle of some kind of legal issue, I would get in my car and drive to Fenway. I’d get to the game early and sit in my seats and say, ‘I’m home, I’m happy, and I love it here.’ It was my therapy.
Show business is the best possible therapy for remorse.
How many times have we seen reality celebrities fall from grace – often through no fault of their own – and then go on a show like ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ and say, ‘I want to show the public a different side of me.’ And I’m screaming at the telly going, ‘This is not therapy. This is voyeurism!’
Anyone who sets foot into the ‘Watchmen’ universe and isn’t just a little nervous should be given a few days of electroshock therapy. I’ve always considered ‘Watchmen’ to be one of the best graphic novels ever written, and when it came out back in 1986 I was as blown away as everyone else. Just masterful.
It is like therapy to write and have people connect with it. That’s the kind of music I connect with most.
I had a year of therapy and I swear to God, I went in that with a certain level of self-love, but not enough to keep me out of bad relationships, not enough to try and save people who were toxic for me, not enough to recognise when something was bad, to walk away.
I hope that the image of gene therapy is changing. It seems to be.
Artificial intelligence, machine learning… cell therapy, immunotherapy. There’s just a constant stream of investment ideas we could pursue better in that fashion.
All of my problems are rather complicated – I need an entire novel to deal with them, not a short story or a movie. It’s like a personal therapy.
A lot of families with kids with autism can’t afford speech therapy for their children and can’t afford to get them in the best schools for autism. We’re trying to help make a difference in those communities.
I won’t say that writing is therapy, but for me, the act of writing is therapy. The ability to be productive is good for my mental health. It’s always better for me to be writing than vegetating on some couch.
Before any decision is made on proposals for ending conversion therapy we must understand the problem, the range of options available and the impact they would have.
I go to therapy a lot. And I’m – I’m open about that, and I try to get the help so that I – so that I can cope and – and make my way in life and with my family.
Songwriting is like a therapy, it’s a connection that you have with another person, and I’m not scared of it at all for some reason.
My love songs are very personal and quite weird. They don’t really have the big radio hit choruses because basically they’re my therapy, stuff I have to get off my chest.
Acting is probably the greatest therapy in the world. You can get a lot stuff out of you on the set so you don’t have to take it home with you at night. It’s the stuff between the lines, the empty space between those lines which is interesting.
Encouragement to all women is – let us try to offer help before we have to offer therapy. That is to say, let’s see if we can’t prevent being ill by trying to offer a love of prevention before illness.
I think when tragedies happen a lot of people go to therapy, psychiatrists, whatever, because they need to have someone to talk to. There’s thousands of people a night that I get to talk to, by way of my music.
You have to believe in a placebo or it won’t work, but if it works, it’s obviously working in some indirect way, through feedback in the immune system, let us say, or in the willpower of the patient to take a more strenuous exercise in their own therapy.
We are committed to bringing forward proposals to end the abhorrent practice of conversion therapy.
The wilderness is healing, a therapy for the soul.
Every patient tends to bury the most important story inside some other story, just the way new writers often ‘bury the lede.’ ‘Burying the lede’ is an old journalism term for when you only find out the real point about halfway into the article, but it also applies to therapy.
I came out publicly as transgender and began hormone replacement therapy while in prison. When I was released, however, there was no quantifiable history of me existing as a transwoman. Credit and background checks automatically assumed I was committing fraud.
I enjoy painting, cutting the lawn and working in the garden when I have time. That’s therapy for me. I enjoy working with my hands.
Well, I have no time for therapy.
Perhaps the CDC should quit spending money on things like jazzercise, urban gardening, and massage therapy and direct that money to where it’s appropriate in protecting the health of the American people.
The show has become my therapy.
Music is like my secret garden. It’s where I heal myself from every pain that I feel. It’s like a therapy.
Music is just such… it’s not therapy, but it’s a release, it’s a joy, it’s a pleasure. And it’s a job – which is weird, because I don’t think of it as a job.
The analyst’s psyche operates as a kind of… something to hold on to while somebody’s going through therapy, if they’re deconstructing their own psyche, if that’s cracking up in some way, or dissolving.
When you’re singing, you’re using extra muscles, and it requires a lot of exercise and breathing. You can’t do that if you’re a sissy. If I have any fitness advice for people, I’d tell them to sing more. It’s good therapy, too.
For me, there have been times when an action movie, even a ‘Tomb Raider,’ has helped me get out of myself and be physical again. It’s like therapy.
If you are writing a story and trying to draw an audience to come and hear you tell it, it’s got to in some way relate to them. Who wants to come and hear about your specific problems? It’s not therapy – it’s supposed to be a communal piece of entertainment.
I graduated with a degree in musical theater and no skill in anything else to make money; I wish I had gotten a massage therapy kit or something where I could have made my own money.
Many people tried to find the therapy for cancer, but all failed. And myself, I never expected my research, working on the immune system, would lead to the cancer therapy.
