Question??? At the risk of feeling alone...I was wondering how many people have sought counseling from a professional? For reasons other than being yorkie obsessed, lol :D I've made an appt for the first time and I'm nervous, all of a sudden I feel like a total embarassement and even though my co-workers have no idea...I feel like a drama queen, I just want to hide...lol, course that could all be in my head! :p |
You should not feel bad you are going to help yourself. Good Luck! Many of us take medicine to help us navigate through life as well. |
help Sweetie, I have had my head taken apart and put back together several times..it has made me the happy, slightly neurotic woman I am today..go, grow and discover YOU..it is good to gain knowledge and control to deal with people and life better. I have yet to meet anyone who could not benefit by therapy!! |
Don't be nervous and no one needs to know. You will feel better though. Trust me. P.S. my folks live in Plano... how do you like it? I love it there. Thinking of moving when my kids graduate. |
Thanks Guys! You guys are so sweet...I love being able to come to YT and letting loose no matter what the drama! I really appreciate your kind words. It makes me feel tons better. :) Thanks |
Chloe, I was in therapy for awhile after my husband died and it really helped alot. I also felt embarrassed to admit I needed help. I was so silly to feel that way because it is a sign of strength to get help when you need it. Good luck and I hope you have as positive experience as I did. :) :thumbup: |
Just to add, I wish I had gone sooner. I carried around all that stress for so long when I didn't need to. |

chloeTG...I have to agree with everyone...It can only help. I think it's brave what you're doing......IF I could see someone myself...I would too. Take advantage of the fact that you are able to do this and all the best to you. |
Going to therapy did wonders for me. I was in for 6-years the first time and just ended a 2-year cycle. I learned so much about myself and became a better person. No one has to know what you are doing unless you tell them. Good luck, and if you ever need to vent I'm here for ya. |
Everyone needs therapy at one time or another. You can get by without it, but it DOES help. So why not make life a little easier and do it? Go and enjoy taking that time for yourself. |
Nothing to feel guilty about my dear friend. I've been to counseling two different time periods. Both times it helped me deal with difficult situations in my life and I didn't have to put all my burdens on my friends and family members. That's one reason why we go to someone objective. |
therapy V...I used to have health insurance that paid 100% for therapy...I got a Fraudian shrink and went twice a week. Learned alot at first, then ran out of stuff to talk about, he said I was avoiding issues...so I started making up the wildest dreams to talk about...he was on the edge of his chair..LOL THEN...I found a wonderful woman therapist showed me how to be Pat, the crazy, old Yorkie lady and not give a dam what the world thinks of me...LOL It is total freedom..LOL |

Chloe, no one gets through life without pain and sadness and we all have to raise a hand for help from time to time. Thank goodness we live in a time when we can seek this help out and there are medicines to help. I agree with Pat, therapy is a wonderful way to understand who you are and to grow strong with this knowledge. |
