After about 200 sessions included evaluation, longer therapy, shorter counselling I can conclude that therapy is nothing more than a monologue where you get speech support from someone.
Itīs also similar to read from a fairytale in that respect that someone nods, says "hm" and wants to ask questions about a character or a picture in this fairytale.
But when you end this monologue or youīre finished reading from your fairytale thereīs nothing more to it.
After spending several years, soon itīll be four, what Iīve learned from therapy and meeting with therapists and other mental health care staff is to
- Donīt tell anyone about your problems, they canīt do anything about them.
- Donīt trust anyone with secrets or things you find hard to talk about.
- Donīt ever think anything will be better.
- Know your position in society as noone will ever help you reach your goals or do anything for you to succeed.
