Anecdotally, it’s still taboo to go to a therapist in the U.S., but I think it shouldn’t be. The other child comments here are pretty good, I’ll just add that I’m familiar with a few psychology students and in their training they’ve helped a lot of undergrads get through some tough problems. I never considered therapy as an option within reach at any point in my life, but I think it could have and can in the future help me, and 90% of people. If you’re opposed to it, you can actually think of it as better understanding your brain and leveling up your life and career. PhD students go through 5-8 years of training on understanding the brain and human behavior. Even if one doesn’t have serious problems, it’s likely a huge help.
