Ive never really been big on the therapy idea. However I have been going to therapy since I was 8 (I am 31 now). Never once have I had any improvement whatsoever. "Why do you still go?" I hear you thinking. I go because I am told to go. I go because medication does not work for me and the only other thing is therapy. I go out of desperation, because there is nothing else to try. Beggars can't be choosers! I just go really because nobody can come up with any better ideas to treat my mental illness, and therapy is the textbook thing to do. So I guess in a way, I go to therapy to keep up appearances.
