But after a year, things got repetitive, we were both getting frustrated, and I came to the conclusion that at the end of the day, only I can help myself with my particular problems. So I stopped making appointments, and have felt better and better ever since.
Therapy is very much a "your mileage may vary" thing. And that mileage may vary depending on the client, the reason they're seeking therapy, their own personal capabilities, or even the therapist themselves. And more.
Therapy is also definitely not the only way to get better, but it can (key word, CAN, not WILL) help you get on the right track.
