Los Angeles, June 25 (IANS): Actor Arnold Schwarzenegger believes seeing a marriage counsellor with former wife Maria Shriver is "the biggest mistake" he's ever made because he was "so full of s**t."

The "Total Recall" actor, who attempted to save their relationship for the sake of their four children, spoke of his experience on a radio show, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

He said: "I think that people should get help when they need help. We are not against that. But in my particular case, it was not helpful."

"It was the biggest mistake I've ever made because that guy was so full of s**t. He said more c**p and more nonsense...It was absolutely, totally counterproductive to our future relationship or to any hope to get together or anything like that. It was just nonsense talk. It was the biggest mistake. Maria talked me into it."

"I apologised to Maria. I apologised to the kids. And I tried to then move forward and say, you know, 'How do we make the best of it?' And, you know, it has worked out really so well with the help from Maria, with the help of the kids, but not because of the shrink or because of some psychiatrist."
