For what it is worth, I was in my forties when I started therapy, and now in my fifties I am preparing to end therapy. Therapy has changed me. It has been well worth the effort my therapist and I have put into it.
My mother went to therapy for a few years in her sixties and it was amazingly helpful to her. She is much more honest and comfortable in her own skin. She has some issues still but she is so much easier to deal with now. I think she finds the world easier to deal with too.
