The problem with therapy is that therapists are people, too. Some therapists are great, but many of them suck. And perhaps we are each compatible with different kinds of therapists. I've had therapy for a short time, and I didn't think the guy did a good job.

One thing that's drastically different between PUA's and most therapists is that a therapist's goal is to make you NORMAL, while in PU we want to become EXCEPTIONAL. When I explained that I wanted to get better with women, the guy instantly started thinking about how I was overcompensating, since the desire to get good with women is not normal. My life from his point of view was already good, because it was quite average.
