I was (and still am) a big advocate for therapy, but slowly came to a similar conclusion as you did.
I think there are great therapists out there, and the overall practice is good in nature, but there are a lot of core aspects of life you can develop that you'll see a way bigger return on.
The friendships/relationship/and good community give you the diverse sounding board a lot of people seek out from therapy.
I’m still a big advocate for therapy. Finding the right person makes all the difference. It's great to talk to a stranger without feeling guilty afterward.
For the record, I’m an introvert, so meeting people? Not my thing. I jog and play guitar/ukulele to unwind.

Thanks, Ben!
