The first therapist I saw told me “Some people just don’t enjoy life, maybe you’re one of those people” which was a strange thing to hear from a “mental health professional” and set off alarm bells.
The ironic thing is a lot of the “everybody needs therapy” crowd have never been to therapy. One therapist told my friend his addiction to prescribed drugs was a moral failing on his part. This lead him to attempt suicide by cop. This would not have happened if he had not gone to a therapist.
Therapy is based entirely on therapists, which are also human, and is just a job. And lots of people suck at their jobs.
Okay but those therapists aren’t doing their job. They’re not giving therapy. That doesn’t mean not everyone can benefit from therapy.
Now you’re creating a logical fallacy. I’m not interested in engaging with that.

You’re probably just supposed to feel shitty all the time. That will be $500 please.
