And I think that many would disagree with OP's assertion, especially given the forum's focus.

But absolutely, if someone wants to say "all shrinks are x" and doesn't see a problem with that point of view, why would they want to or need to seek help from a therapist? On the other hand, if that kind of attitude prevents someone from seeking out a source of help that could be beneficial, that seems less of a good idea. But as always, it's up to the person in question to decide.

As I said before, different strokes...
Ocourse i have had bad shrinks or i wouldent post the thread, you can go see a shrink as many times as you like , you never get any real answer,s . This is how it goes// try this med ssri , 6 weeks later try this snri usually effexor the suicide king of meds, so lets say zoloft is comeing out your system an meets effexor comming in. BBBBBBBOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM your twice has bad as before you went to see him . Go to your gp an pick a med yourself , at least he remember,s your name.
