I struggled with self-esteem and shyness in my 20's and therapy changed my life. Even if you have a supportive circle of friends, a good therapist can be a wonderful, transformative presence in your life. They can give you refreshingly honest perspectives (in both the positive and constructively critical senses) that you simply cannot get anywhere else. They can help you dig in and examine beliefs that are very difficult to unpack any other way. I'd highly recommend seeing one if you have the resources - just talking to someone once a week for a few months can change how you see the world.
