Counselling/therapy?

Question

Has anyone had counselling and found it useful? 
I'm not really sure if it's for me and I can't imagine it helping my situation but I'm just curious if it has had any positive results on anyone? 
I've had a really bad couple of years. Lost my Dad in January and 2 days after his funeral my brother who's on 35 was diagnosed with terminal advanced small bowel cancer that has pretty much spread to everywhere. I'm not really open to talking and I'm not sure if I'm into seeing a counsellor...😢

Answer

It's all about finding a counselor you click with. I  saw many counselors and hated counseling for a long time. Until I found the counselor that I currently talk to. I LOVE her and she has helped me through so much. She has been my counselor off and on for 6 years. Even after moving to a different state, if I need her, we do FaceTime message appointments.

So like I said.... it might take a while to find someone you truly click with, but when you do find that one counselor, it is absolutely worth it. Good luck to you. ❤️

I have and if helped me so much. I was going through a terrible time. I literally cried throughout my first session, but it got easier xxx

Answer

I would strongly recommend it
Saved my life
Won't go a month without seeing mine
I want to see one no matter what it's helped me that much
It was also a trial and error thing. Took me 2 times before finding the one I have now

Honestly, I think anyone can see a therapist, even if they aren't going through hard times. It can be sooo beneficial in so many ways. I'm so sorry about your dad. If you're not ready to talk about it, that's okay. If and when you are, therapy is a great way to process your thoughts and emotions and learning coping skills. Getting a therapist was the best thing I ever did and sometimes when I'm feeling better I'll think to myself, I don't need one anymore, but I honestly don't think I ever want to go without a therapist ever for like for the rest of my life. Doing research to make sure you get the in that focuses on you're area of need is crucial. I lucked out and my therapist just happened to be great for me, but it can be a trial and error thing, so if you do go through with getting one, don't get discouraged if the first one doesn't work out. Again, I'm so sorry about your dad. Healing of any kind takes time and the process is different for everyone. Try to stay positive.❤️

Answer

I hate councelling. Have gone about four or five times in my adult life, tried different people.. Just hated it. I felt that it didnt help anything and was pointless. On the other hand it is terrific for some people; my fiance is an avid believer in the good of "talking it out" with a councellor. To each his own, you wont know for sure until you try it out!

Answer

I'm kinda in the same boat because I'm not a counselor kind of person but I think I need to see one to stop these flashbacks and it's hard to sleep most nights. My grandmas been sick with cancer for awhile and now they can't do anything for her anymore. My dad committed suicide in late January and 4 days after his funeral I was raped. I also have epilepsy and ever since this happened I've been having more seizures.
