We all need therapy in one way or another. Me and my friend made a pack when we were younger to talk once every wk and he would teach me what he learned that i didn't and i would teach him what learned that he didn't. that was 12 years ago and we still talk every sunday about our goals and problems in life. Everyone do this if you can it makes life much easier!!

after quarantine i’m going to start therapy. what inspired me to get therapy is just thinking about going into a safe room with a trained professional and you can just say what’s on your mind, talk about my feelings and even cry in that room and i don’t have to worry about being judged or what i’m saying in that room being spread to other people. a therapist can help me find solutions to work out my problems and i think that’s amazing.

No no, the voices in my head say I don’t need a therapist.

Everyone can improve.
 Those who need improvement most are those who deny they could use some improvement.

This video is the reason I started therapy 2 years ago and I cannot be more grateful. I was going through a difficult time and watched this video and it completely changed my life. A million thanks to you❤

This! This is exactly what I needed to hear! I've been thinking of getting therapy for so long but felt uncertain if I needed it or not. I guess it's okay to just go for it.

What a lovely talk! Really appreciate the message that the results of therapy take time, and I agree that we look for quick fixes far too often. The comment about the ripple effect is a powerful one, and a great way to spark change in our lives. Going now to feel it ✨😊✨

Best thing I've seen in years! Dr. Anhalt speaks volumes in less than 11 minutes. Thank you! Years ago, I was so confused and unhappy from a bad childhood that I almost ended my life in my 20s.
Thank goodness I sought professional psychological help and lucked up with two, dedicated "shrinks" who helped me better understand my situation. I am forever grateful for both of them.

Absolutely, I am what I attract and I attract what I've become. Great lesson and reminder! Thanks

How wonderful that someone so young is investing in the changes in herself for personal growth and then qualifying to share it and help others. I so wish I had done my therapy earlier in my life instead of leaving it till my 50s after 25yrs of reading self help positive books to make me 'better'. That was all such hard work when now, I have come to believe that I am good enough just as I am.

Wow that was an awakening for me. I NEVER thought I needed therapy because I’m comfortable and have no issues and it’s taboo. Now I understand what she means and I think I’m going to look into finding a therapist and become my best self. Very well said Dr. Thank you for this eye opener.

I've seen lots of Ted talks over the years and very few managed to get me to thumbs up before finishing the talk. This is one of them.

Good job.

Needed to hear this. Therapy is great, and I'm ready for it. 👌🏾

First I thought she was promoting therapy because she is a therapist. But actually I see her point, some work on themselves through religious practices, some choose a therapist. The result is knowing your mind, clarity of mind, which is, in my opinion, the most important in personal growth and happiness.

Mourning the loss of other choices. So powerful! Your comments of growth and grief were so profound. Thank you.

The most profound meaningfulness in life is a constant. It's not just a temporary feeling gained from therapy although for some who are in really bad shape, therapy could be a good start.

A few simple rules in life (some unavoidable even though many try with futility) - these are an immense help on one's quest for meaning:

1. Life is NOT fair.

2. You are NOT entitled to anything good in life, including happiness.

3. Where there is life, there is hope.
