My therapist is also a senior psychiatrist and he's seen plenty of people respond quite badly to therapy over the years so he's quite ambivalent about it these days. Personally I find it quite helpful but the first year or two I didn't see the point at all. I'm not sure why I stuck at it really. It seems that psychology/psychiatry has a long way to go but we can make the most of what is available to us, give it our best shot and just hope for the best. Good luck on your journey.
