No need to be sorry! Your thoughts are welcome.

I understand that resentment of antis. They are burdened with a poorly calibrated sense of purpose, and art and fandom suffer for it.

[dani_phantasma]

Yeah. Also art is very helpful in mental health and therapy which is another reason it's important. People write and draw to cope with things .

I had a therapist some few years ago who really thought my writing hobby helped me understand myself.

She was really good and really understanding in a lot of things and really empathetic .
I'd had some really toxic therapists in the past that harmed me and did almost lasting harm to my relationship with my mother .

That's why I get mad when antis talk about therapy like they understand anything about it and talk about how they want to become a therapist. It scares me bc i know the lasting damage a toxic therapist can do ..

[anoldsmudge]

That's very true, and people who aren't as inclined to create read and view things in order to cope. Fiction and art are safe venues to process our anxieties and experiences; it's part of what is meant by catharsis.

I think of the drama in the Sherlock fandom years ago, where a panelist at a convention was verbally attacked in person by a group of antis. She was an abuse survivor working through her trauma via fanworks, and they heaped their own sort of abuse on her. Really shameful behavior. I wonder sometimes if people like that are afraid of looking at something in themselves, and that causes them to misunderstand what it is that others are up to, and lash out at them.

I'm glad you found a good therapist who you were able to work with, but sorry that you had to wade through some toxic ones to find her.

Yes, and that group of antis were using anti rhetoric because shipping John/Sherlock one way was good and the other way was pedophilia and evil. Really appalling and I would like to think that at least some of them look back and are ashamed of themselves, even if the ringleaders aren't.
