On one side of my family, it is associated with being quote, crazy. But as I've gotten older and evolved and surrounded myself with more pro-therapy people, I think not seeking out help is quote, crazy. Therapy has made me a better dad, better husband, and a better friend. A kinder person to myself feels pretty sane to me. But still, even in 2026, there can be stigma for getting support for your mental health. Maybe you have avoided taking the first step yourself because you're worried what others would think. What matters to you more, happiness and inner peace or the opinions of people who don't want to give you permission to go seek it? Therapy with BetterHelp can be a space to slow down and talk things out and make great strides towards finding that happiness and peace. BetterHelp therapists work according to a strict code of conduct and are fully licensed in the U.S. They're waiting to talk to you. What are you waiting for? Don't let stigma stand in the way of support. Start therapy with BetterHelp. Sign up and get 10% off at betterhelp.com slash timesuck. That's betterhelp.com slash timesuck.
