going to therapy * 1
    #24164822 -

So after being depressed on and off for a long time (the past 2-3 years) and making breif improvements, I decided to say "fuck it" and go to therapy

FUCK. I have made more progress in the past two months than in the past 1 year. This therapist asks you questions that really make you think. I cried twice the first session and once the second session

I had this perception that therapy is only for the extreme cases of poor psychological health. I am not sure it works for everyone but it definitely works for me. That and I feel that the person in therapy would need to WANT to change. My university partially subsidizes therapy so what would cost say $200 costs $20 for me. Plus my parents are helping me financially and I am near broke at the moment so I am getting as many sessions in between now and graduation. My biggest regret of the past 4 years is not going sooner. I wish therapy was cheaper and more available. Its a bummer that it costs so much

Anyone else have great experiences with therapy? I figure there are some folks out there who dislike therapy or it may have not worked for them?

Therapy is very beneficial. I think everyone should do it. Its very important to find a therapist that you can connect with.

Good luck on improving!

I was gonna say something along these lines but I am waiting for someone to pop in and explain why it didn't work for them. people I know have said therapy just pissed em off more hahaha. We as humans are all so different so I doubt everyone derived the benefits I did

im forced to do therapy in order to keep my adderall and i fucking hate it. Ive had awesome therapists over the years but im just not the type to want to talk to anyone about my life.

If they talked to me about their lives then i would enjoy it. I hate being the center of attention and i hate having to relive memories that i dont feel like doing and i just dont like talking unless i need too.

all in all its just a pain in the ass and doesnt help me, but im glad its helping you OP

I've had free therapy since 2010. It's helped me in so many ways, but coincidentally I started getting in trouble about 2 months after I started therapy, I think I just saw it coming and fucked up preventing it like I was trying to.  I still go, and they really get my head right some times.

Therapy is good, just as long as the therapist is good.

I love my therapist, but I can't afford the $85 a session fee.

Who knows what the future holds though, but I wont switch therapists, only been a few times though.

^^ i think its the doctor/psychiatrists regulations that you need atleast 2 hours per month to get meds

it may be the insurance, though

If you make a certain amount of money or are a student a lot of times theres a place that does a sliding pay scale.  The therapists I've had ( 2 ) have been incredible, too facilities i never paid a dime, and the same psychiatrist since 2010.

Right now medicaid covers everything.

What are some examples of questions they ask? I'm currently a non believer in therapy (for me specifically). I feel like I would not be able to play along with their routine

It's not a routine. They just ask simple questions that make you think, mostly suggestions and ideas on what you should focus on.  They ask about your passions and your support circle and where your at in life.

They just let you vent too. You don't have to worry about pissing a friend off being a drama llama.  They even give me rides to the grocery store and to court dates.

have you tried? I thought it wouldn't do much for me until I tried it myself

But basically when I told him certain negative life events that occurred in my life and he asked leading questions which made me realize how large of a role "I" had played in events. That I realized I was not at "fault" but to some degree I was "responsible"

I like therapy its a good time to reflect and let things out.

I sometimes come away from a ssession (with the right person) feeling as good as I do on a DMT afterglow or what I imagine meditation feels like.

I did therapy once as a kid in high school. My Dad forced me to do it for being a loner. Sadly going to therapy caused more teasing to me cause i went to therspy. that sucked.

My therapist was an older gay guy. It was ok i guess. I didnt feel like i got a lot out of it. Maybe with a female i would feel more comfortable expressing myself. Who knows.

Takes a while to find the right one. Some im convinced are just bad all around. Too by-the-book, impersonal, robotics etc.

Lol I just saw this. but in a sense, this is a true. I just don't want to burden my family/friend with my issues. my closest friends live miles away. they would accept me if I disclosed my drug use and depression. they know both of these are issues. but I think they don't realize the seriousness and extent of it

So why weigh down people I love and care about with that?

I actually have an appointment to see a therapist on Thursday. It'll be the first time in years I've been to see one. I'm at a point in my life where I really do want to change. Pretty much my only remaining vices are extremely heavy marijuana use and complete social isolation. But they go really hand in hand and I just can't figure out how to break free from this cycle.
