This is really valuable advise. I'm 20 at this point, and (after therapy) I'm looking back and realizing now much self-acceptance and connection with your own emotion shape the way I perceive the world. I'm really glad that I started this young, and for people who live in a country where psychotherapy is covered by healthcare - there are usually offers of a short psychotherapy (in Germany it's called Kurzzeitherapie, short-term therapy) which will in my opinion as a psychology student will benefit every person.
