    A therapist is not here to help you, they are here to help you help yourself. You cannot expect someone who you see once a week to fix your life, only you can do that.

      Therapy is essentially gaslighting. They are not here to help you (of course, because they are charlatans and not real doctors), they are here to make you believe everything is fine. If you ignore a problem, it’s no longer a problem!
