I am going for therapy after lockdown. I told some things to my brother and sister, that someone already touched me, I’m not clean anymore. I never went through the details, not about the suicide attempts, not the did. I really want to do it for me, and for my boyfriend. To be better. But honestly, I don’t know if it will work. Going to a psych just seems pointless. Idk. Will it? I don’t feel comfortable. I think I can and will do better without going for therapy.

Don’t be afraid of trying it. Yeah it seems pointless sometimes, but trying it is harmless. It won’t be easy though, and the answers won’t come out of the blue in the first few sessions. It takes hard work. I hope that you get better and that it will do you some good.
Thank you. I’m just worried the meds will somehow fuck up my brain if i take it for a long time. And I’m pretty sure did is not common in the country.
If you aren’t comfortable talking about it yet you dont have to. I know theres some thing I very rarely mention. And some other things no one, not even my husband or friend know. So you dont have to mention anything until you’re ready. However sooner or later though it might be a good idea because the therapist cant help if they dont know. Just try to get a good one, mine doesnt know how to listen if it saved her life. I was trying to explain something one day and she was telling my husband something completely different and talking over me while treating me like I was stupid even though the psychiatrist SHE sent me to agreed with what I was saying not only that but all the information I had was from study sites and the top doctors in probably the world, but I’m wrong. (Sorry I went off a bit that really pissed me off lol)
anyway yeah long story short, you dont have to say anything until you’re ready and you dont always get a good therapist on the first try. I know some people that went through like 5 of them and that’s ok.
I hope it all works out. I know it can be kinda scary going but the place here anyway (aside from her) were very comfortable, there was a little zen garden and whatnot.
But is it confidential? Like extremely confidential? I would go with my brother and his girlfriend probably or my sister. Would the psych tell them things or will it stay between us? Sorry i really don’t know anything about therapy.
Hi there.
I can relate to you. I was abused by a stranger once. I haven’t spoken to a professional about it because I don’t want to talk to a stranger.
Wow, my advice was pretty bad. Sorry.
If you ever want to talk to me, I’m around though
No, no it’s not bad. Thank you.
