    I saw Dr. Shaw and told her I had had 20 years of therapy and it had not helped me and she recommended more therapy. 5 years later, I learned I had Aspergers syndrome, which does not respond to therapy and that it was "obvious." Not sure why Dr. Shah did not recognize it so I didn't waste so much time.
