I think this could be a fun and useful thread, but I am looking for serious answers.

Basically, I'm relatively new to therapy compared to a lot of you guys. I feel that maybe I'm not making the most out of my time during therapeutic sessions. I mean, I used to go to sessions and babble about my day, until I realized what I was doing and realized that I wasn't getting anything useful out of it. I wasn't asking the right questions or wasn't asking questions at all. Didn't get much support either.

What is your best piece of advice when it comes to therapy?
