The insight can let you know why you react the way you do to certain things. I have found that once I know that, I can work to change how I react. And then I am no longer controlled by the pain from the past. I am able to make my own choices and live my own life. And yes, medication has helped me in that aspect, and I do see a nurse practitioner who presribes my medication. But that isn't to numb the pain... it's to change the parts of my pain that are biological, to 'fix' them as it were.
I'm sorry you don't see therapy as something that can be beneficial, but if by nothing more than allowing me to take some control over my life, it has been beneficial to me.
