I have been through three courses of CBT. On the third I was dismissed after six weeks because "I already knew it all" and the pediatrician thanked me as I had helped them "gain a better understanding". I found that it was only after receiving medication that I returned to mental stability.
I resent that you make a false assumption, having been through CBT so many times I feel I might even have a better knowledge of it than professionals whose only experience is from a text-book.
- Bud 10y agoNow it's clear that in addition to knowing nothing about CBT, you also know nothing about what it takes to become a licensed therapist. My fiancé just became one, so I can help educate you: it goes far, far beyond textbook learning. After you get your Masters, you have to accumulate 3000 hours of supervised professional therapy under the guidance of another therapist who is licensed, and then after that you must pass an ethics exam and a clinical exam as well. Therapists are rigorously trained.

- foobarqux 10y agoWhich medication and for how long?
- m-jones 10y ago4mg of Fluoxetine daily for a little over two years. Additional: Occassionally I may forget to take it and I won't feel any different however those around me pick up on it straight away as I become reclused and start constantly sweating.
