Very true, but as discussed there are a lot of groups that can fit most issues, so if you're struggling you might as well see if there's something that works for you.

Not relevant to everyone, but if you're in the UK and need help speak to your GP. They can refer you for therapy; I had CBT and 1:1 therapy (the waitlist can be quite long though) and afterwards was given a list of places in my area for people who can't afford "normal" therapy prices (one was a pay what you can deal).

I understand the US is very different in terms of healthcare, but if you do some research you might be able to find something similar?
