Good for you brother. Definitely get the help and healing you need. Nothing wrong with talking to people about what you may be going through, past experiences, childhood etc.

Are you in college? If so, your college already offers therapy sessions that you paid for with your tuition. Or at least it should.

Could've used the coli as your therapist for free. :francis:

She'll just give you a prescription for some pills that'll supposedly make you feel better, give you a bill, and send you on your merry way until the next session. :francis:
That's been my experience with all 2 experiences with therapists. Went to one as a teenager after my Dad got remarried and my Brother and I were getting tired of the step Mom's shyt. Everybody explained their sides, the therapist recommended drugs for my Brother and I. Declined the offer and just decided to stop expressing frustration with anything till moving out. Went to a therapist in the military after getting tired of dealing with a drug addict nco in charge of the shop. Explained everything that was going on to the therapist. She offered no advice except for a prescription. Turned it down and decided to just find ways to annoy the nco in return.

That whole field probably used to offer something useful but now it's just drug dealers with phd's.

You went to lazy psychiatrists

Psychologists and LCSWs don't and can't give meds

@J Reid don't be afraid to shop around. If you're not vibing with the therapist, get a new one, don't just shrug off the whole concept

And fukk this casual diagnosis of bi polar, most people don't even know what that means and going in assuming you have it is harmful

My unsolicited advice to you is don't discuss your therapy on here or with anyone who hasn't gone through similar treatment

Good job going to a therapist.. I went once after an ex passed away cause it was depressing. But after a while i realized i was throwing money away going there and I was supposed to feel that way.

Getting your life and social connections straight does wonders for a person. More so than a shrink but I dont know your issues so..

That's impressive....many people just double down on their flaws and dysfunctions and embrace all kinds of self destructive behaviors and impulses as 'just the way they are', it's ignorant and stupid. It takes strength to address your issues straight up, and not just immerse yourself in them. I've benefited from counseling, cognitive therapy, rehab/treatment for addiction, it ALL helped. I always encourage friends, and various girls I've dated or been with to seek therapy for their range of issues including severe anxiety, depression, addiction, self esteem, etc....none of them do. And, I wouldn't rule out medication, that's extreme thinking. Be open to the possibility that a lightweight medication could help you. I never followed through with any medication, but that doesn't mean it couldn't have helped.

Thanks, breh.

I don't want to take meds because I'm afraid they'll change who I am. As hard as it is to be crazy I wouldn't get rid of it completly. I have no doubt I'm so well rounded because of my nuttiness. I'm always all over the place, but never out of place and I love that about myself. I'm not going to give that up to be a zombie. I'm going to therapy to get help with managing my lows and to talk about some things I choose not to share on here.

Naw, not in college.


My first session is on the 20th. I feel like a little kid waiting for Christmas. :russ:

My social life is great. I have lots of friends and women like me. I really can't complain.

Funny enough I'm the guy people come to for advice, help, and motivation when they're low. But because of that nobody thinks to ask me if I'm okay, they just assume I'm good. I just need a little vent time outchea.:to:
