And if you go into therapy not connected to your gut. . .??? Trust your gut, but you're not connected to your gut. So you go to therapy for help with that, essentially, among other things, and don't realize what therapists and their "relationships " are doing to you until after years and years of wasted life and hope. Not to mention the dollars.
