I found therapy isolating and disorienting. And you are urged to keep everything a secret. Nothing leaves the room. I think that is dangerous as hell. Felt like i'd joined a cult.

When therapy turned destructive thank god I found some people online who were also questioning the whole thing. Staying in that isolated alternate universe without external reality checks would have been a disaster.

I would not let a professional dictate how I live my life, and would consider it a red flag if they tried.
