I’ve been in therapy since i was a teenager (am 36 now). I can say, with a lot of determination, shit can get better with therapy. I was always trying to kill myself 20 years ago. now I haven’t been to hospital in like 2 years.
as the other commenter said, that’s a somewhat uniquely american thing. I just visit the doctor when something is wrong with me. If there’s nothing wrong, there’s no need to go to the doctor.

How can you afford 20 years of therapy? I feel like that’s a crippling amount of money.
it was free.
Nice. It would have to be free, I would never want to pay for it at the rates that are charged.
yup. it’s pretty bullshit that mental health isn’t free, yet a lot of other medical stuff is (at least where i live)
My free mental health treatment is complaining on the internet
More importantly how can you afford that but not a yearly basic check up with your doctor?

Actually European here, but there are way to may diseases that can sneek up on you for you not to go everytime+whenever you feel like it
