To think therapy culture has gone too far?

Not every bad day is trauma. Not every disagreement is “toxic.” Some people just need to toughen up and stop pathologising normal emotions. AIBU to think the rise of therapy speak (“boundaries,” “gaslighting,” “narcissist”) is turning everyone into self-obsessed armchair psychologists?

Oh look. This thread again. It's been, what, four times over the last week or so?

I didn’t know that? Jesus it’s hostile here.

Another post about this last week...

What difference does it make, unless your AIBU is because you're on the receiving end of accusations.. and pissed off because you're being called out
