I need to take some time to vent. I’ve been struggling with anxiety and depression most of my life coupled with childhood trauma.

TLDR: Due to life circumstances that left me with very little choice on some major life decisions, I recently ended up suicidal in January. Fast forward through counseling, psychiatry, and life coaching I’m stable but stuck in the same place.

1) My life coach is basically a spiritual coach and I’m finding it increasingly difficult to work with her due to the God / creator focus / spin on everything. The issue is I tend to be atheist / agnostic. Since there is no way to definitively determine the existence or non-existence of a supreme being it cannot be used to justify something one way or another.

Question: what are your beliefs as an INTJ?

2) Much of the anxiety and depression comes from the curse of prophecy and seeing something coming but being unable to convince anyone of it and being powerless to change it.

Question: Does anyone else have the double curse of being able to see things coming and not able to change it coupled with the deep held belief that no matter how perfect something may be it can always be improved?

3) Time is a valuable thing.

Question: How do you deal with time thieves, especially from those close to you?

What would you do in a situation where you love your family dearly but they are holding you back? Wife and kids, not parents.

Last.y has anyone used the Unlocking the INTJ course from Personality Hacker?
