I think one of the reasons therapy doesn't help me is because i have anxiety and stay busy analyzing my problems, thinking of what caused this and what caused that and wanting to understand why i feel the way i do. So I think in therapy i indulge in analyzing and it makes my anxiety worse. I do however love counseling. There is nothing better than getting to talk about your problems for an hour and try to find the root causes of things! Unfortunately for me, it seems to be counterproductive.
