If you have money you might be able to pay some therapist that you know and respect, but if you have cheap insurance, all your therapists will be young idiots who will be treating cigars a dicks...

I have a chip on my shoulder yes, my nephews therapist was an idiot

I've done therapy a couple times in my life with good results. I just told myself that this person has taken years and years of schooling with the intent to help people, and to make money.

My plan was to use them like a prostitute (without sex of course). It worked so I kept going till I felt better. Gotta get a good one.

Lol, sorry.

Worked for me.

Therapy is really a kind of self-reflective medicine; the more you give to it the more you get out of it. I think people often think the therapist is there to "cure" them of a disease like a doctor. But in fact, they were there for the patient to see their own troubles and discover their best means to manage them.

My point is that just because therapy may not instantly provide a cure doesn't mean it isn't worth it. I think most people today could use that kind of help and need someone they can talk with openly about almost anything. Don't knock it - it's a great resource that really can turn your life around for the better.

I went to therapy and it wasn't very good. Expensive though!

Seriously, price tag is one of the first barriers for more people to get help. It's not alright to promote mental health and then make help unaffordable. That should be the first focus.
