Do not regret it at all. Therapy certainly did not change my life or healed issues in major ways, it also did not provide mindblowing new realizations and insights. I have always been a very introspective/analytical person as far as I remember, very interested in the inner worlds, both my own and others', so by the time I got into therapy first (at 40 yo), there wasn't too much seriously unexplored ground, I was also in the upcoming phase of some years of very serious personal struggles and setbacks. It did clarify some areas and strengthened some realizations and conclusions though and I benefited in smaller ways, even from the annoying parts of my therapy, given that I was able to stop and not get stuck in it. Therapy was something I had wanted to try for a long time and am glad I did, if for nothing else, because it led me to this forum that I like very much and find way more useful than my actual therapy, or together with my therapy - and it's free. I had two therapists in the past and two radically different experiences, both interesting in their own way, one much more pleasant and tolerable than the other. I think one of them could have been harmful for someone less guarded and resistant than me, but I did not let it get to me too much and beyond what I found beneficial during its time. It was a bit more money spent than its merit, but no regrets really - mostly just another self/others exploration approach out of the many I have tried over time, involving both theoretical and experiential elements, not the best and not the worst.
