i don't think this is how therapy really works though. therapy tends to stir up a lot of painful emotions especially if you have had any trauma in your life. so, it might be waaaay down the road before you will be in a better place to go off the drugs. if you tried to go off your drugs while you were dealing with significant issues that might throw you into a tailspin. i believe the way you are thinking therapy works may be rather unrealistic.
