EVERYONE IS A PROFESSIONAL

Has Therapy Speak Gone Too Far? "You're gaslighting me." "That's a trauma response." "I'm protecting my peace." "I'm setting boundaries." These phrases are everywhere—from therapy offices to TikTok comment sections—but are they helping us communicate, or are they becoming excuses to avoid accountability? In this episode of Men Don't Know, Chris and the guys call up friends to get honest, unfiltered opinions on whether therapy language has gone too far. They explore how social media has turned everyday people into self-proclaimed relationship experts and whether psychological buzzwords are being used correctly—or simply weaponized during disagreements. The conversation dives into the difference between healthy boundaries and avoidance, accountability versus blame, and why everyone suddenly seems qualified to diagnose someone else's behavior online. This isn't about criticizing therapy. It's about asking whether the internet has changed the way we communicate—and whether that's helping or hurting our relationships. In this episode: Has therapy language become overused? Are terms like "gaslighting," "narcissist," and "trauma" losing their meaning? Is social media creating better communicators—or better debaters? When does setting boundaries become avoiding difficult conversations? How do we separate real mental health awareness from internet psychology? Where do you stand? Has therapy speak helped us understand each other better... or has it gone too far? Join the conversation and let us know your thoughts. Subscribe to Men Don't Know for honest, entertaining conversations about dating, relationships, modern culture, and the questions everyone is already thinking—but few are asking out loud.
