You have to be your own barometer on this. Is what you are talking about and working on in therapy moving you towards what you need and want for yourself? If so, then you are probably on the right track.

Personally, I found therapy to be hard work. Yes, we laughed and I really enjoyed my therapist as a person, but the bottom line was that I was working really hard on myself and my goals, working through some very painful past, etc. I wouldn't call it "fun." I wouldn't call it torture either. It was a bit of a job actually, something I really worked at because I didn't want to stay stuck where I was. I needed change.
