Alright, it's likely that a lot of us here are almost as mental as we are unattractive. So I'm guessing some of you more proactive folks have tried counselling.
Whether it was for depression, feelings of isolation, or anxiety, I'd like you to share your experiences. Anything would be great.
I'm aware that asking on here is subject to some bias, but I'm still curious.

>Bitching about your non-issues to somebody who literally doesn't give a single fuck about you, even less so than real therapists because you actually pay those
I honestly feel that I am moderately unstable, and I am chronically self-conscious and anxious but I absolutely refuse to go talk to some normie roastie about it while she pretends to give a shit
uni counselors are even worse than therapists
they're paid to sit around and deal with overachieving normie girl's "anxiety" problems
>"oh no, I only got an A- of that test, my life is over!!!!!"
>"I'm so worried about finals even though I have a 3.9!!!!!"
any other problems they will sit and stare at you because they have no clue or training about how to deal with it
I tried it once, and it did nothing

I think whether the counsellor actually cares about you is irrelevant. Isn't it all about the process she puts you through, and ultimately dampening what stresses you?
Though I do agree that the counsellor themselves could make or break it. For example, if it were a new 20-something grad student, I'd seriously feel like it'd be impossible to bring up "tfw no gf".
