I participated in 3 CBT sessions 10 years ago I asked what will I get out of 6 sessions (the most my employer would pay for). The therapist said I would know my problems but not solved any of them. I did not attend any further sessions. I am a male programmer with bipolar. I did try a excel based survey labelled CBT which quantified where I was on general personality traits which was OK and free. I did read some popular therapy books. I could probably do with more work focussed excutive coach lite training if I could avoid the bad ones. I called works employee helpline recently, after a manic episode, I will see how that goes, it is more of a seen to be doing something rather than letting mania (occasionally) take its natural course.
