Hard determinism helped me big time with my anxiety disorder because choices compose a large share of stress. Yes, traditional physics and cognitive neuroscience supports determinism but that doesn't make it to be absolutely right.
Free-will could exist but that would mean there is a force in the universe called chaos. And confusing having control over life with random chaos won't solve anything but giving one a sense of self-worth yet creating doubt, guilt and judgment as a result specially for the people that struggle with low self-confidence, anxiety and depression as myself.
Hope I helped clarify why I empathize so much on hard determinism. It may not work for you but there are some people out there struggling with their choices in life making life a living hell for them and the idea that they are actually feathers in the wind might help lift some of the weight from their shoulders.
JUST BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY ONE ROAD AND YOU'RE WALKING THROUGH IT WITH OR WITHOUT YOUR CONSENT DOESN'T MEAN THERE WON'T BE A BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE OR SOME MORNING GLORY FLOWERS BY THE ROAD TO MAKE THE JOURNEY BEAUTIFUL... IT DOESN'T MEAN THERE WON'T BE JOY AND BLISS ON THE WAY.
