Putting beauty in your life can be an amazing therapy. I love harmonies and a good melody.
There’s a lot of black men running around with crazy trauma scars, and they should be going to therapy. They should be sitting down and talking to people. But they can’t. If you’ve got the armor of being a man, and the armor of being a black man, that hyper-masculine thing can make those scars deeper.
Food is a lot of people’s therapy – when we say comfort food, we really mean that. It’s releasing dopamine and serotonin in your brain that makes you feel good.
I went to college for, like, a year and a half with the intention of doing some kind of art therapy or some kind of teaching of art, because I feel like art is a more free area in school than music is. I feel like music is too mathematic for me. Music school’s so hard. It’s math.
What’s worse – loneliness or a relationship that inevitably leads to costly therapy sessions?
Like all parents, my husband and I just do the best we can, hold our breath and hope we’ve set aside enough money for our kid’s therapy.
Because of my bipolar disorder, I tend to these mixed states, which are depressed but loud and agitated. So I can be terribly irritable. I go to cognitive behavioral therapy in order not to yell at my children.
I think therapy should be part of everyone’s preventative medicine.
I’ve struggled a lot with therapy because it’s got a stigma to it, and also, it’s really gotta work for you, I’ve found.
Standup is a form of therapy. It is OK to tell problems to your audience as long as you are being honest and not boring them. I tell them that I am saving $75 an hour when I talk to them instead of a therapist.
I was awake for the therapy, it was documented by a film crew. I am proud to have taken part of helping millions of people even if it has bad results.
I don’t journal to ‘be productive.’ I don’t do it to find great ideas or to put down prose I can later publish. The pages aren’t intended for anyone but me. It’s the most cost-effective therapy I’ve ever found.
Material things are not helpful after a certain degree of saturation. So you turn to other products. I think that therapy is a product that can transform you. But why does it need to be packaged as a product? Why can’t I work on myself with my friends and family?
I think blogging, by and large, is basically therapy. And I’m sure, and I know, that there are some terrific bloggers and some legitimate bloggers. But I think, by and large, a huge percentage of people who are blogging are doing it for self-therapy.
I injured my neck in training, but did physical therapy and thought everything was fine, but when I fell against the cage everything went numb, I couldn’t feel my body.
In therapy I have learned the importance of keeping spiritual life and professional life balanced. I need to regain my balance.
Psychoanalysis is that mental illness for which it regards itself as therapy.
Stem cell therapy has the potential to treat a multitude of diseases and illnesses, which up until now have been labelled ‘incurable.’
When you’re involved with someone for a while, and they decided to express their feelings to the public – that’s not my personal way of therapy, but I guess everyone takes split-ups differently.
I don’t think physical therapy is part of most people’s wedding routines.
In retrospect, I have devoted my scientific life mainly to the question to what extent infectious agents contribute to human cancer, trusting that this will contribute to novel modes of cancer prevention, diagnosis and, hopefully, later on, also to cancer therapy.
Music for me is an emotional necessity. It’s therapy. It’s what I live and breathe.
No amount of therapy will take care of a chemical imbalance of the brain.
I always find out after the fact that the books I’ve been writing were actually some sort of therapy, some sort of, you know, self-examination that I had to write the book in order to complete.
Iconic jobs are interesting to deconstruct through therapy.
If you get into Scientology, you will go to auditing. It’s like therapy except that there is an E-meter between you and your auditor. That’s a device that actually measures your galvanic skin responses. It’s two metal cans that you hold. They used to be Campbell’s Soup cans with the label scraped off.
Therapy is really good, so I’m kind of sticking with therapy.
Those artists who say that somehow therapy or analysis will thwart their creativity are completely misinformed. It’s absolutely the opposite: it opens closed doors.
I love therapy. I talk about it a lot because I feel like, especially among black people, it’s stigmatized.
The culture is just so coarse that you have to take it to that level and people will be like, ‘Whoa!’ And then you can make people think about stuff. It’s kind of like shock therapy.
I don’t really write for catharsis; I get that kind of work done in therapy.
I’ve had a lot of cognitive behavioural therapy, and am having a family now.
I didn’t learn about depression or anxiety at school. So when I had to go to my parents to say ‘I need help, I need to go to therapy,’ I felt like this weird, messed up kid. And I wasn’t, but I felt that way.
I had severe PTSD and anxiety, but it was the ’80s, and I didn’t have a name for it. I don’t think my mother even thought, like, ‘Maybe I should take her to therapy.’ I thought I could handle it because I’m tough.
I’ve always just talked to my family and my friends. I’ve never been a person that’s gone through excessive therapy at all. Some people might say that I should.
I was fortunate to have a grandfather who was an optometrist. Vision therapy was something that we routinely did to strengthen our eyes and give us better focus. I was fortunate that he could teach me techniques that are still paying dividends for me to this day.
As open as you can be about it and as willing as you want to kind of experiment with therapy, you still have to find the right person that speaks to you and feels like a good fit for you.
Singing becomes a form of therapy.
All of these guys who went through rehab have done so much therapy and so much work on themselves that they’re totally open to talking about anything because they’ve done a lot of healing. You have to respect that.
Well, my brother says Hello. So, hooray for speech therapy.
Oh yeah, I’ve been in therapy in and out of my whole life.
If you are not happy with something, you should change it. So I went to a lot of therapy, and finally, I am able to speak up for myself: You are going to hear me roar!
Through therapy and a lot of thinking and writing my memoirs, I’ve been able to use my life as a lesson.
I’ve had therapy, because as much as I have people around me to talk to, speaking to someone I don’t really know just helps me to deal with emotions and put things in the right place.
Nothing good could ever have come of my life if I hadn’t been able to get therapy and overcome my addictions.
I realized going back and writing and explaining in details the difficulties I had lived actually became emotional again. It’s like therapy but sometimes therapy can be painful. But it’s part of life and part of the autobiography so I’ll have to finish it sooner or later.
If I don’t take estrogen hormone replacement therapy, I can get osteoporosis.
I know it’s fashionable to blame your childhood for everything nowadays – thank you, Freud. The thing is, though, I really don’t feel scarred by mine. But perhaps if I’d been in therapy for 10 years, and you were able to read the records, you’d disagree.
Tapping therapy is absolutely brilliant. Stephen Gately from Boyzone, God rest his soul, told me about it. It’s just a little tap that focuses the mind away from that wave of panic and adrenalin that shoots into your body.
Gym became my therapy. Gym became the thing I looked forward to. And, not only was it helping me emotionally, but it was physically changing my body and making me feel better.
My work is often a therapy for myself – a working out of these issues as a black woman. And a way of allowing other black women to work through this kind of stigmatization as they look through the images and feel how distorted or contorted they might be in the public eye.
Just putting my uniform on keeps me going. Being able to get out there keeps me going. That’s the best therapy.
Comment threads are the new therapy for people. They just go and post the worst things they can think of because they feel bad, and then other people start attacking them, and then they attack back.
I quit therapy because my analyst was trying to help me behind my back.
Biocon is on a journey of making impact on global healthcare. I have to make sure that I have one in five persons who needs insulin therapy to use a Biocon product – that is my dream.
I’m very scheduled; like every hour, I’ve got to do this, I’ve got to eat here. The facial’s at this time, the trainer’s at this time, the electro-muscle therapy’s at this time… it’s like every day is a whole thing.
I think therapy interferes with the creative process. It takes off the edge.
If you can’t control your tweeting habits, then stop tweeting. Go seek therapy.
I’m too conceited for therapy.
When I power-walk with a couple of mates, it’s like a men’s club. We talk about what it’s like to be, well, men. It works as exercise and therapy.
