Most people DO benefit from the efforts of psychology. However, it's a tandem effort--with the larger effort on your part. It's very hard work to get well. You need to work with the meds and the side effects and want to feel better/have a better life. A little pill is not a "cure-all". Whenever I have been involved in good therapy, I found it to be very hard work. When it was no longer difficult, I knew I was done:)The point is, no matter how flawed you might find modern day medicine, nobody's gonna fix what's wrong with you without some serious effort on your part. Again, this is just IMO.
