"You go to a personal trainer? Wow, you must be really fat."
That statement doesn't happen. People are usually encouraged by their peers to continue on their quest for health.
So, why are people embarrassed to say that they see a counselor or therapist?
Everyone goes to school. After formal education, most people continue learning through classes, reading on their own, self-help seminars and church. No one thinks they magically get brilliant by themselves.
Yet, there's a stigma against getting help dealing with personal or relation struggles. Let's stop it. Everyone SHOULD see a counselor. We're all freak shows. April 17, 2008

If Jim Carey makes $400 million a year making crappy films, most people are ok with that because they don't have to see the film.
If a CEO of a computer company makes $400 million a year, and the company does bad, people start talking about legislating salary ceiling laws, even though they are not forced to work, take ownership or shop at said business.
Is it because Jim Carey is funny?
