Has anybody else been to therapy? [I Am Depressed]

I've done a couple sessions so far after putting it off and trying to keep my mental problems to myself for the past 15 years or so. Hoping it does something, though I imagine it's going to take years to undo my thought patterns lol.

For a few months. It didn't help. I'm determined to fix each and every one of my problems. No longer seeking the help of others. They've shown me TOO many times that they don't care

I hope it gets you on the right path, I didn't find it so useful personally. yes, in my adolescence my parents waisted a lot of money on psychologists because I suffered from depression, it was utterly useless. what did help (in order of positive effect): 1: nutrition, quitting sugar, reducing carbs and eating at regular times, never going more then 6 hours without eating (except at night of course). 2: exercise (if I go more than 2-3 days without exercising I feel horrible) 3:meditation , helped me way more than any shrink, learned to deal with my past and become master of my mood. 4: taking psilocybe mushroom every 6 months or so, way before science discovered it, I had noticed totally by accident that when i took mushrooms I was without depression for months after. it would take too long to explain why, but among my friends we call it a reboot, helps to rediscover the beauty of everything. 5: eliminating toxic people from my life. I haven't had depression in years, can't even remember when.

I've been for over 7 years. I dont go anymore but I still see a psychiatrist. I believe it helps but I didnt get this way over night so I know I wont change over night either. Keep your head up. People here care <3

Yeah but my parents were getting divorced when I was like 10 and my mom was fighting for her life with cancer so it was really rough for a while.

I have gone a few different times in my life. It helped me process the damage done from the abuse I suffered. It’s helped me understand the relationships in my family more. I’d like to go back again when I can afford it to address my own self destruct patterns.

I have been to therapy and benefitted from it.
