Ya know, therapy doesn’t just fix you. It takes the desire and a lot of work to make yourself a more aware and better person. Also insurance

I say this because a lot of people on hinge use “goes to therapy” as a personality trait they want in their partner. It’s more than just a trendy attribute.
I’ve been in therapy for about 2 years and I’m in a healthy spot that i worked towards for a long time. It wasn’t fun and it wasn’t something i would want to relive. It was a lot of hard work and support from my inner circle.
I’m not trying to be rude to people who prioritize mental health, but it feels odd to me that “go to therapy” has become such a catch-all phrase. It’s hard to sum up years of suicide and depression in a hinge prompt.
Anyway, hinge has been alright. I’m genuinely trying to not just passively write it off and give up.
