But it talked to me like they knew what I was going through more than me.

I was originally going to wait until at least most of season 3 was released to watch it. I have now watched it twice since last weds. It hit me right where I needed it and I’m pushing away all the poopeh. Doing as Jamie says, and I’m already more productive.

It’s amazing how positive and consistently good the show has been.

I’m holding out hope the shows nails it’s “landing” (finale), but for some reason, I’m not so worried (especially since I think they decided to end it after the third season, instead of just being surprised by a cancellation).

The show does have a positive effect on me as silly as that sounds. Ted's positivity is "over the top" but it shows that positivity can have a disarming effect on those hostile to you. Add to it that it also shows that "happy" people can be also dealing with with problems like anxiety.

Coach Beard's episode in season 2 was pretty depressing ngl

That's ok though. It would be a lie if every episode was happy-silly-jokey time one liners. Beards episode to me showed that it's okay to have ups and downs. Even really high highs and low lows. It doesn't make you any less valuable.

For sure, I love that the writers took that risk and made a 180 in tone with that episode.

Schitt’s Creek, The Good Place, Ted Lasso, and Trying (also on Apple TV+) are the most heartwarming, real shows for me. We have really come into an amazing time for television.
