I absolutely hate it when people go "Just go to therapy" like it's some pancea

My experience, I was treated like a lobotomized kid as a child with the therapist lecturing me many times on the importance of empathy like as if I couldn't feel that. Then when I decided to go another therapy, I was drilled with questions like "Why do you think you are like this?" Hell do I know why I'm like this, brain defect?

And people always say "you need good therapists", while knowing full well those aren't easily accessible.

Can therapy help with unemployment? Can therapy help with finding your partner?

I'm going to get a lot of hate for this but YOU CAN'T MEDICATE OR GET THERAPY FOR SOCIETAL NORMS. Those that "got out of therapy", I also did, by severe masking. I was able to act composed, a model example of a good student, while struggling with problems internally. I mean that statistic gets added to "successful therapy" in reality it doesn't mean anything

Without a full understanding of consiousness and the lack of mind reading tools STOP ASSUMING ITLL WORK FOR ALL OF US.
