How does talking to a professional about your problems help you in any way? I’ve been in and out of therapy for years and I simply don’t find any use in it. I just tell the therapist about my emotions and my life, they try to be understanding and offer some very basic advice I already knew about. Why is therapy often recommended more than medication and thought of as a better solution when it’s literally just normal discussion that can’t change brain chemistry?

Medication can’t solve the problem 100%. You need to learn ways to live with your past baggafe. If you think you can rely solely on medication you are setting yourself up for failure.
Most would recommend medication AND therapy at the same time because as your brain chemistry improves (theoretically) on the meds, you will be more easily able to work thru problems through talking with someone who can help you navigate it.
I say again, you can not solve your problem with just a pill, or just therapy, or just lifestyle management. You need to use all tools at your disposal. There is no easy button, don’t expect that because it’s not reality.
