Why hasn't therapy worked for me, and what can I do about it?

...See more Hello, I've seen therapists on and off for about 10 years now, and have gone through 6 or more therapists. Some I left because issues came up or boundaries were crossed, and the only one I was comfortable with long term eventually moved away, but even with her our sessions were becoming less and less productive. And yet 10 years on from my first session with a therapist, I've made no progress at all. It's like I have all the coping mechanisms and tools at my disposal, but I just can't apply any of them. I want to make a change, I want to get better, but something in me is resistant to it. At this point, going to a therapist again feels pointless, because we just spend weeks on end rehashing the same stuff I've gone through with 6 other people, coming to the same conclusion, and being told the same things over and over. I just feel beyond help now, and honestly I don't know what to do about it.
