Agree with a lot of what you say stop dog-if I'd had even the slightest idea of what "therapy" wasn't I would never have started it-stopped unpleasant psychoactive meds for gentler "talk therapy"-what a joke!! My psychologist admitted recently he had to be dragged screaming and kicking to his own analysis and was always late-wtf
