Anyone seen a psychiatrist?

[Scott Larock]

I need life advice, I'm very very depressed. I need serious help or just someone around me who can help. The thing is I don't know if a psychiatrist is really going to help me with my issues, I'm not well and constantly angry and depressed about my life.

My parents want me to seek professional help but honestly my issues are so severe and depressing I don't know if it's going to help.

I really need young people to really guide me but most nikkas ain't built like that, I really need a mentor or role model who can talk to me and guide me when I have questions.

So has a psychiatrist helped anyone? I really don't think it's gonna help me.

Yeah, I have. When I was staying on campus in college, I had a black female psychiatrist who really helped me. The only reason I stopped going to her is because I transferred to another college. If you can find a good one who genuinely cares about, it'll be a great help. Make sure you get a psychiatrist and not a psychologist. A psychologist will only try to prescribe medication and wont really hear you out

You have to come back weekly or is it only a one time thing? I don't have money like that.

You'll have to see with your insurance as far as the co-payment. You can do it as frequently as you want to, be it weekly, monthly, one time, ect.

Yes. My senior year of college, I had an anxiety attack before class in the lecture hall waiting area. I thought it was an asthma attack because I had trouble breathing. Walked to the student medical center where they diagnosed me with anxiety. Was prescribed six sessions with a gorgeous shrink. Felt the weight of the world lift off of my shoulders when the sessions were over. Sometimes it really does help to talk to someone. If it weren't taboo, I think more people would be open to it.

It varies from case to case, if you're more unstable they'll want to see you more often; if you're doing well less often. From personal experience a psychiatrist can be of great benefit, helped me survive through rough times.
I wish you the best friend

Go to a therapist instead "I'm one"

Psychiatrist deal with medicationS, UNLESS you believe you need meds

Psychiatrist is the one who can prescribe medication, psychologists can't prescribe medication,

Probably going to want to see me twice a week. I don't know how much it will help because I get depressed going home. and home is where people spend most their time.

Once a week. Twice are rich people who can afford it.

I must have the definition mixed up. I know one woman I talked to back in high school only tried to prescribe me medication, we didn't really have conversations

You're one? Are you a mature enough people to keep people's issues private?

I really need someone my age and younger to guide me, I never really had a man of means and status groom me and it shows if you meet me in real life.

I'd be better with a roommate who had shyt going on and worked with me getting my shyt together, my situation right now is embarrassing and I'm ashamed of myself as a man, I don't even like talking to people, I'm pretty embarrassed. If you follow my post history you'd see a pattern of post speaking on the community specifically black single moms and so forth.

I've kinda reached my peak, I'm pretty tired of fighting and not seeing anything.
