A study found that being a parent (or even imagining being one) tends to encourage social conservative views. Furthermore, when that effect is controlled, age does not correlate with social conservative views.

Psychotherapy must consider the external situation that makes people depressed or anxious.
Can some sort of change in your mind help you cope with the external situation? I think it can, because different people respond differently to the same external situation. Some can face up to the bad situation and try to help deal with it, while as others succumb to counterproductive rage, despair, or jealousy.

A Chilean thug shot Fabiola Campillai in the face with a tear gas cannister, and the resulting injuries caused brain damage: she can no longer see, taste or smell. He has been convicted for this attack and is now awaiting sentence.
Such attacks are not unusual in Chile (nor indeed in many other places). Chilean thugs blinded 400 people during the 2019 wave of protests. Thugs anywhere tend to have right-wing views, and may hate leftist protesters to the point of killing or framing them. This thug shot someone who was not even protesting.
Sra. Campillai did not let these injuries crush her. She ran for the Chilean Senate, and I've been informed that she won.
