I went to five therapy sessions and it was like a speed run of college theory on CBT. Dude never stopped talking and we never talked about me or my problems.

Weird. That's an awesome intrusion point to get into the depth of why they think they didn't succeed and from there ... piece of cake on the professional side, hard and emotionally tiring work on the patients side! What a shitty therapist. This was ist.. the trust check and she blew it.
Even knowing a shitty human therapist personally didn't shake me. It was dating apps. The amount of women I see that I'd run from at full speed, then notice they're therapists... Jfc (I 100% believe everyone should be in therapy. There are shitty physical health doctors too.)
Why should everybody be in therapy? That's like saying everybody should see a physiotherapist.
I mean, with how common back problems are in people of all ages, maybe we should all be seeing physiotherapists

It's more like saying everyone should get a physical on a regular basis. We all need a check up now and then.

You're reminding me of a certain quote... "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." -J.Krishnamurti
As fucked up as this world is, if you're well adjusted to it, you're broken and probably should see someone, and if you're not, you need therapy to make it through the evolving dystopian hellscape. ...so yeah, I think that's what they're saying.

It's sad that it's true. Therapists are in high demand, and part of the reason we need more therapists is that about 1/5 of current therapists are basket cases in denial who use the idea of therapy to fulfill their own desires to control and manipulate others.
"Do you think I'm attractive?" Either way, need a new therapist, but there are all sorts of possibilities beyond them maybe being rude and demeaning to OP.
