I regret trusting that psychotherapy could help me when I had emotional difficulties. I had big ones as an adolescent, could have died without some intervention, but then I didn’t really develop a sense of myself to depend on and kept going back to therapy.

Although there were different therapists involved I developed and continued that attitude FROM the attitudes of therapists, and “society” at large. Which because I didn’t have a well-developed sense of myself I thought it was the “thing” to do.

I regret that decision AND don’t see how I could have done things differently. I do have the beginnings of a sense of myself now -- whether from therapy or just "life" I'm not sure.
