Indeed you learn alot from yourself.
I think the only problem with Psychology is, even though it is a valuable and reliable science the majority of the time, the way it is applied to individuals by therapists etc isnt always so reliable. That isnt due to the Science itself but instead those who misinterpret it to their clients or their situation etc.
There are many crap psychologists who either soft-soap or dont truly really understand (or want to understand) their patients or listen in depth to EVERYTHING they are saying, instead they simply recall their memorization of textbooks on stereotypes and the precedent of past clients and make a diagnosis based on that when sometimes things arent quite that simple.
However as i have said before sometimes the point of therapy isnt to be diagnosed accurately but instead for you to realise that the psychologist was wrong which encourages you to delve into things yourself and work yourself out and find some answers in order for you to move on.
There are also some good psychologists though which shouldnt be forgotten, its a bit like most professions tho, a lucky dip, some people are better at their jobs than others.
I explained my view on Psychology a while ago, i think you will prob remember that thread Peegai, but yes.
