I have spoken to a therapist in the past, junior/senior year of high school and a little my freshman year of college. I've considered going again, especially because mental health is one thing my University takes damn seriously (Free counseling, pretty much as long as you need it) And part of the sense of loss is my own fault, I realized a few years ago that I was surrounding myself with people who didn't reflect the type of person I'd like to be and I made a point to lose contact with those people, but now I have my best friend and a sea of acquaintances. People who I am pleasant with, and who owe me (or I owe) a beer, but few of any real substance.

Take advantage of free mental health care. It gets expensive once you're out of college, so utilize it as much as you need when it's free. You won't regret it later.
