How long have you been in therapy? Sometimes it takes a long time to see change, but what helps is when i mention to my T that I'm not sure it helps he'll go back ver the last 3 years and say this what you were like x years/months ago do you still feel the same way do you think you have changed? Usually the answer is Yes, I have changed sometimes it's a big change and other times the change is small, but I see it all a moving forward. I realised the other day that I thought i was just changing the last 10 or so years of my life but really I have 46 years of my life to change. it doesn't come over night but you will get light-bulb moments when you feel its definitely worhtwhile.
I guess it all depends on your childhood experiences and those of growing up, some of us have experiences that no child or adult should ever have. Not belittling others experiences btw.
