I know this sounds like a contradiction — a therapist telling you that therapy alone was never the whole answer. But hear me out. I spent years in weekly therapy. At the same time, I was living with chronic gut inflammation and something scarier: coronary artery vasospasm nobody could explain. I ate clean, did low-FODMAP, worked out, did everything "right" on paper. And nothing really moved the needle — or at least not in a way I could point to and say, that's what fixed it.
