I think that ship has sailed. Even the word "therapy" has lost all meaning, just like "mental health" and we are all just conditioned to believe that the only way to achieve anything is through group think and therapy.

If you're fucked up, try drugs, (preferably the _legal_ kind, but certain herbs work really well) before you try therapy. Therapy is expensive for a reason; it's 50% a scam.

Your implication that anything expensive is closer to a scam is of course nonsense. An MRI is very expensive, but it is not a scam. An oncologist is expensive, they are not a scam. Therapy is expensive and it is not a scam (because it works for most people, most of the time).
