What is the next best thing, or strategy for oneself, if therapy is not an option?

I'm relatively honest about my behaviours and past and somewhat self-reflective. However, I now live alone, have no friends to offload to and therefore most of my thinking stays within my own head.

The most positive therapeutic experience I ever had was 3 months with a counseling service which specialised in adoption trauma. Sadly, I may never be able to restart this.


How can I hope to make progress without professional support?
