They possess extensive life and academic experience, psychoanalytics beyond empathy is a very mentally-taxing skill, associated with a whole lot of bullshit. This isn't to say psychiatrists are infallible.
Therapy is an umbrella term for any hack that receives basic training in counselling (often times a meagre 6 weeks course or shitty 3 year ba psychology). I guarantee that your college "therapist" is either a naive well-meaning idiot or scam artist looking to take advantage of low-self esteem retards; and in both cases will prove inadequate in providing support to anyone who has issues more complex than “normie depression” ie bereavement, relationship issues, poor grades and the like. Remember that aspects of the blackpill do hold water in science-circles (halo-effect, female hypergamy), and denial of facts is just another form of self-deception.
Medications and other treatments, like anti-depressants, tranquilisers and electroshock are a whole different matter, and probably warrant their own thread.
"Blue-pilled platitudes" and "normie-advice" will be the given generic and universal response to any and all problems at the surface level, and is evidence that you’ve just wasted an agonising amount of time, for nothing. Browse through this forum and you'll see that the vast majority of negative experiences with therapy here stem directly from therapist incompetence, whether it be poor rapport building (lack of trust-->lying/withholding info) or simply being too low-iq to conjure up a workable solution to whatever issues you have.
Even then, if you luck out in finding a skilled psychiatrist (high demand, so expect to pay the big bucks) it is unlikely that you will find a perceivable improvement in your quality of life in a short amount of time, since the relationship between a psychiatrist and yourself will be give-and-take, and it's impossible to detail your seemingly inconsequential life stories in a few short 1 hour sessions. If you are willing to commit to treatment, be patient, you’ll have a long road ahead of you.
Therapy is humiliating and an often-unrewarding past-time, CBT showing less than 50% of patients markedly improving, and there is definitely no shame in refusing to see a shrink long term if you think the effort isn't worth it. However, you shouldn’t be so arrogant to refuse treatment, even if it’s just for a month, everyone responds differently and maybe you can kindle some sense of understanding in yourself. Life isn’t just about being validated by women, no doubt there are many miserable chadlites in the world.
Take care of yourself, all the best.
