There's no scam. They are really just guides for you to figure out the problem yourself. They are experts trained in listening to your approach and reasoning, and providing you with input or a different approach for you to consider. Ultimately, you are helping yourself, but you need a guide to make you think outside the box. Otherwise, you will only deal within the confines you are comfortable with and used to, and you will get nowhere.
You know how you learn things better when you have to explain it to someone else? It's the same principle.

After 12 years paying for therapy, I sure as hell believe it's a scam. It got so bad my last therapist started making suggestions that I didn't love my 5 yr old son and I should start coming weekly at $80 a pop. I've never heard of a therapist/psychologist/psychiatrist say "ok you're all better and don't need to come anymore"

I wouldn't be here today if it weren't for my therapist. She helped me when things couldn't get any worse. And she actually wasn't nosy, she asked questions, but not-off-the-wall questions. It all depended on how much I wanted her to know. And since I needed all the help I could get, she knows more than anyone.

Bad therapists are nosy, so it's possible that they are.
I'm a therapist, and if it appears someone doesn't want to talk about an issue, I won't keep pressing them. But if they come to me for help, I'm going to want to know what's bothering them. If they won't tell me, I'll let them know that I don't think our sessions are productive so I'd tell them to save the alotted sessions provided to them by their health insurance and come back when they were more prepared to discuss their dilemmas.

I think it is their job to get as much information as possible in order to help you. If your therapist is TOO nosy, I would suggest seeing another one that makes you feel more comfortable.

yes they are.
but it's not for money it's for illegal brownie points. they know that
good people wont harm them where as bad people will so they put these medications into the public which when for example placed in someones drink will make them pass out - adawning these people who are sane with a sick phsycological disease for a moment and most of the time permanently it happened to me twice. my conclusion is they are under the pump to supply drugs
to bad people who use them and by putting as many people on drugs as possible is the easy way and most least tracable way.
they do this because drug pushers have found their way into every government department which means theyre doing it to protect themselves from people they know, a cover-up - passing the buck. and dealing the dollar to themselves - organised crime. it fucks with my truth all the time. when it all comes down to it they want the easy money and the ease of the pecking order
which all of us have come across by being at school. they rig the
truth. with the medications ive been on i can tell medications of today are easy access tools for malicious people. Confidence through destruction of individual lives. what are these people taught?? o.k. they go to school surrounded by drugs, they go to uni surrounded and they obtain ways of making as close as they
can to illegal drugs then they use us to see what happens when those drugs are used without ever having to go on drugs themselves to bad theres such a distance between people who get their hands dirty and those who dont. why would you fight to mix bad ingredients together like that. phsycologists and patients
really two worlds apart. you dont bring a black man to the kkk annual meeting so why do doctors think they have the right to force medication? no they just sit,wait for a problem to rise and dont take no for an answer involving medication then judge you based on your worst reaction, i don't even think they look at the good - something about felling good dropping your meds then it being about the whether the doctor feels good.
really whose mentally ill?? the doctor who went to uni against this **** or the person who is imprinted with the effects of something that happened because someone wants population control. its a whole lot of illness for something that could have been done without malice. i am an empty person filled with hatred because they got it wrong .

It's their job to find out what is going on with you.You'll get to deal with your trust issues and do I detect a little paranoia?Don't get offended,I went through the same.The good thing is that you're seeking help and that's the most important part about it.Good luck&take care.
