A speaker shares how they waited months to find campus counseling, not knowing it existed. They argue that handling mental health alone doesn't work and that successful people use therapists as life coaches, not a sign of weakness.
Not days, not weeks. Unfortunately, it took me months. Why? Because back then we didn't know about our counseling center on campus. Even though it was there, we really didn't know about it. Nowadays, you're going to hear a lot about it because it's there for you. I wish I'd gone there because I tried to handle it internally. Not a good way to handle anything you're struggling with mental health. It's so much better to go over to counseling and get that support. And by the way, I'm standing and telling you that as somebody who travels the world all over the place speaking, and I talked to a therapist. So that if somebody goes, well, I don't need that, you know, the people think, oh, the most successful people— actually, the most successful people I know use therapists. They're coaches for their life. So don't be afraid to use those services, no matter what end of this conversation you're having on. They're great resources.
