      eh, therapy is not magic. "go to therapy" = you need help, but I'm not competent enough / I don't have enough spoons | skin in the game, so find someone who's supposed to be minimally competent It's like IANAL, or "consult a medical professional"https://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1313919712154198016 …

      visa is cleaning out his notes @visakanv
      “Go to therapy” has become a sort of shorthand - and I’ve used it myself too as a sort of placeholder (typically like, “go to therapy if you need to”). But even therapy itself is no guarantee of anything. Some people go to therapy to find elaborate ways to justify their bullshit

      I'm sure plenty of us have stories about how lawyers or medical professionals let us down. Same goes for therapists. That doesn't mean therapy is to be scraped.

      It does mean that we need to stop putting professionals on a pedestal, because there is a significant enough probability for them to fail that it's worth getting second, or third opinions. Basically, 80% of everything is crap, including professionals...

      Similarly, "ask your friends for recommendations" is a quiet admission that there exists no official body, exam, or certification that reliably checks for the quality of work of (whatever profession).

      Yeah although therapy has the major problem that you really can't do this, because you shouldn't see the same therapist as your friends. I suspect this is actually one of the main blockers people have for access to good therapy.

      I think that rates below "affordability" and "mental health care shaming", but it's not an insignificant factor

      Yeah, fair. Affordability is certainly a major blocker for more people. But this isn't unrelated! One of the difficulties of affording therapy is that you have to shop around a lot before you find a therapist that is worthwhile, so there's a really high up front cost.

          oh yeah, and everyone tells you "don't expect immediate change" so it takes a while to figure out they're ineffective, and they take ~3 meetings to get past "getting acquainted", and they hedge if you try to ask how they deal with issues and what's their preferred approach and

          oops i seem to have a rant button there (the label on the button says "i'm so tired of not being able to find competent professionals, by the time i can expect to have shopped around enough i might as well have taught myself this thing, which is a colossal waste of time")
