I've never personally dealt with one, but apparently my girlfriend's shrink is pretty good for her. She has a lot to vent about with regards to her pretty crappy mother and stepfather... who got her the shrink in the first place because it's their opinion that a 17 year old having opinions is a behaviour problem.

Two really bad ones and one that was ok, but none did anything for me.

My mom made me go to a councelor when I was in eighth grade. The bitch angered me so bad, and I never went back. My mom kept making appointments but I never went. The bitch was fucking annoying. I hated her.

The last time i went to a guidance counselor's office, i was told i could have been arrested. and it ended up with my friend getting suspended and the worse thing that happened to me were rumors.

All of mine were bad. They don't help at all. In the end you have to help yourself anyway so why pay a shitload of money to talk to someone who is as normal as you are?

I have a counselor, she is ok. I had really bad conselors in my youth.  They treated me like I was a baby.
