Anyone here who's going or has gone to therapists or doctors with their depression? Did it work? I'm considering doing it
I've went two times to the pshycologist and I've to say that maybe it helped me in some way but the therapy was stupid and it cost 50 euros per session so it's fucking expensive and it only works if you want to.

yeah, I've been going for like 2 months. This board is now shittier in my eyes, and I'm hanging out again with some of the old friends I used to have. I don't feel like there are many hopes for my future, but at least I don't loathe myself as much anymore

I went to a bunch, literally, I could break down each one if you want, and it didn't help.
I think for me it's because they were:
1. Through my uni's counseling service so sessions were 2-3 weeks apart - not enough time to really accomplish anything; and:
2. None of them followed a framework of any kind. It was basically talk for an hour and leave, no homework, no general idea of therapy direction (CBT being the main one). They tried so hard to make it "safe" and "comfortable" that I was never challenged enough to accomplish anything.

Went to a psychologist once. She said I'm not a "bad" person, I can recognize others' emotions just fine, but I apparently won't stop myself from sperging.

I could probably get it for free in my country I think

That sucks. I'm considering going through my uni as well, hopefully they'll be better
Never worked. They just act like they're listening and then prescribe you pills. Female ones are the devil, though. I nearly got sent of to the loony bin when I was 13 because the old hag considered me "unruly" and "disturbed" because I didn't want to go to school because of all the bullying.
