I minored in psych in college, but learned enough to learn that "therapists" generally don't know squat. To be a therapist in, say, Indiana, you only have to have a Master's level education. That's not much training in psych.

Statistically, if you have a secular based psychiatrist, your odds of recovery are less than 5%. You have a better chance of recovery on your own.

I have a master's degree in English lit. Can I be an Indiana therapist?

(Hey, Indiana Therapist would be a great name for a band.)

Hey, "therapists" = "the" + "rapists"

My mother worked for a psychiatrist when I was a child and she saw a lot of people helped for many, many years. This woman was an excellent psychiatrist! But both she and my mom heard horror stories from other professionals and from patients. Then I worked for a group of psycologists for a while. Some were good; others were questionable. I just don't think it's fair to say that the profession as a whole "don't know squat."
