I frequently wonder about the value of therapy. On a personal level it has been incredibly valuable. It has helped me interact with friends and family better,to feel good about the things I do well, understand a little better about how became the person I am at the moment, and has helped me be more open when faced with a new challenge. The downside of this is... I've invested a lot of time and effort into exploring myself, childhood, etc...This exploration unfortunately hasn't yielded tangible things yet. I haven't finished my degree, haven't secured a promotion, haven't really advanced myself in a way that others might recognize as improvements.
