I can tell you. Therapy has changed that. I'm a fully functioning person now. I have interests, lijes/dislikes that I'm now aware off.

Now what was that? Therapy is insufficient?
Of course I speak only for myself and my experience! From what other standpoint could I speak.

But I also spoke to someone whose situation I felt I could understand. Perhaps I was wrong? Or at least incomplete?

I tried to speak to her(his?) pain and, perhaps, feeling of aloneness. I could of course been wrong in what I thought I perceived.

Therapy for me has been insufficient and has brought its own sorts of (additional?) pain.

I'm glad therapy has worked for you.
