You're doing therapy wrong.

Sounds like you don't have any issues requiring therapy. This is like saying casts are dumb because you put one on and didn't see any improvement when you didn't have a broken arm in the first place.

Yes, I would agree if what you described were therapy. It is not. Something like CBT is significantly different from that, and the tasks become ingrained in your daily existence.

I think a good friend would check up on you when they know you're in therapy working on your mental health as they would if you were physically sick/injured. OP you might want to speak to a mental health professional to unpack this stance you have. Therapy is not paying someone to have a chit chat. And you're definitely not talking 90-95% of the time. It's tough and requires a lot of hard work if you are using it to better your mental health and relationships in your life.

This is not my experience. Therapy has helped me immensily. Maybe you are simply not a good enough patient?

That's an "unpopular" opionion in only the USA and UK probably. Trust me, you're right, and the rest of the world agrees with you.
