A quick definition of risk:

Risk: Risk means that something bad might happen and you might lose something because of it. It's like when you play a game and you might lose, but you still decide to play anyway.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Risk refers to the chance or possibility of an unfavorable event happening, which could lead to a loss or harm.

Examples:

  • Investing in the stock market involves a certain level of risk. There is a chance that the value of your investment could decrease, resulting in a financial loss.
  • Driving a car comes with the risk of getting into an accident, which could cause physical harm or damage to your vehicle.
  • Starting a new business involves taking on the risk of failure, which could result in financial loss and potentially harm your reputation.

These examples illustrate how risk involves the possibility of negative consequences. In each case, there is a chance that something could go wrong, resulting in a loss or harm. It's important to be aware of the risks involved in any decision or action and take steps to mitigate them.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.

I would say yeah, they're helpful. But they can verge on unproductive and stress-inducing if you watch enough of them (especially the application read-through ones)
