Yes Jenny, that was what I was implying. Therapy is often pushed as a cureall by us but also the industry itself. I also know part of that responsibility also stems from the self-improvement industry at times as any mental illness related article usually ends with "go see a therapist" and conveniently leaves out how difficult of a process that actually is. It's not all malicious of course, it's more that most people don't understand what therapy has become.

Either way, I'm glad that despite how twisted and flawed therapy has become, you've been able to find one that you get along with and is helping you out.
