I guess I'm just old and expected to go in lay on the couch and get help to work through all this. I didn't realize that I had to bring an issue to the table without help to work on, not knowing if it's the right one or not.
I've been through several therapy programs DBT, PE and now CBT as well as private f2f therapy, and online counseling. I guess collectively I have gained some ground but I can't say for sure that therapy was was therapy that got me here. To me therapy is like putting a band aide on an abscessed wound, yes it looks pretty and covers the ugly, and the right thing to do but that festering wound is going to cause a loss or severely damage the area.
I just started therapy about 4 years ago, but I thought it would be quicker and more in depth. This could last forever if the core issues are not addressed.

Anyone else disappointed on how therapy works?
