I went to a counselor, briefly, after my daughter was killed. All it made me want to do was rage off and hit people even more.

A man carries his own water.

After my wife died, several people recommended I ‘talk to someone’. For those who take that route, that’s their business and I would not say a word against them. But I do not understand, when I look at ‘many’ of the people who seek therapists, what good results. I mostly see people ‘hooked’ on therapy and never solving their problem. All they do is part with cash and adopt the mindset of the (often liberal) therapist.

For thousands of years, people dealt with their problems alone, with family or a friend priest/pastor. Only in more modern times have ‘therapists’ existed. And profited.

That said, any 2X YO needing a therapist just to live day to day is beyond ridiculous. it’s attention seeking.
Nothing more.

Sorry for your loss, I have 4 daughters and could not even imgagine what you went through. Therapy might work for some people and not for others I would imagine, but really it is these little whiny liberals that see a therapist when a nail breaks. Peace to you brother.
