Gaslighting, Narcissist, Triggered: Therapists React to Therapy-Speak 🚩
<p>Everybody's ex is a "narcissist." Everybody's been "gaslit." Everyone's "so OCD." …are they, though? 🤔</p><p>Two licensed therapists put the internet's favorite therapy-speak on trial. Every term gets a verdict — misused, sometimes fair, or a full-on hard NO. 🚫</p><p>Dee (she/her) and Dr. DJ (they/them) — your new best friends who happen to be licensed counselors — break down what these words actually mean in the therapy room vs. what the internet has turned them into, why the difference matters, and yes… DJ confesses the intrusive thought they once had about their dog on a boat ramp. 🐶</p><p>Because when we water down words like "trauma" and "gaslighting," we make the real thing harder to name — and harder to get help for.💬 Which therapy word grinds YOUR gears — or which one are you secretly guilty of misusing? Drop it in the comments and we'll put it on trial next.</p><p>🔔 Like, subscribe, and share this with the friend who calls their ex a narcissist.</p><p><br></p><p><em>Available on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube</em></p>
