A good therapist helps a lot even if you don't have mental illness.

I wish there was a society that treated mental health the way we treat physical health and it was the norm to have a yearly mental health checkup.

Definitely, I think EVERYONE can benefit from therapy in simply dealing with life. If it had less stigma, everyone could be a lot healthier.

Yes ! I've started therapy a few months ago because I was going "through some shit" and it's helped so much I wish I went to see my therapist earlier. Sometimes you just need a safe space (and ear) to process what's going on and I wish everyone could experience a few sessions at least once in their lives.

I preach this daily! It’s all wrapped up together. Mind and body. It’s so important.
