That is, it works if you believe in it.

well, no, in my experience there is a lot of bullshit in the business, i once even had a priest in shrink's robes, so to speak, trying to push christ on me-- fuck that. but it's not a "religion" per se.

however, i can attest from my own experience, shrinkology can help you unbury hidden traumas & teach you how to deal with life's crap more effectively. yes, it's a bit of an art, not so much a science, but knowing yourself & dealing with that knowledge in constructive ways is a good thing.

you know it's kinda like being stuck in the mud and pressing on the gas pedal uselessly. then comes a tow truck & pulls you out and you can go your own way again.
