I was in a successful career track, but I was emotionally underdeveloped. It all hit when I began to have symptoms of PTSD. At first I didn't believe in therapy, but my world started crashing all around me so with some reluctance I sought therapy out. Now I can't imagine why I was so hesitant. Therapy is one of the best things I've ever done in my life. And I've gone way beyond the issues to be able to explore and transform so I'm very different now than when I started. I think everyone could benefit from therapy. I think it should be covered better so that people have better access. You don't have to have a diagnosis to go to therapy and get something out of it. Knowing yourself deeply and in the context of another person who is trained and trustworthy is a great experience.
