Does anyone go to therapy?

Question

No judgement please. I feel like I need to go but I don’t know what for or what I’m really trying to get out of it. I’m dealing with unexplained infertility, a past abortion, I don’t feel happy, lots of childhood things (parents divorced when I was 7, mom passed away when i was 10, moved to a new house with the woman my dad was having an affair with who was my babysitter). Just a lot. I guess i answered my own question but idk what I’m trying to get out of It. I would love some advice, thank you in advance!

Answer

Yessss.  Really really helps.

Answer

I think everyone should go to therapy. Just do it! Your mental health is important and therapy works!

Answer

I go to therapy and it does help, it won't be your savour to your problems but its a start, therapists are able to recommend coping mechanisms or resources etc. Its really nice to be able to talk to someone with no judgement.

Answer

Therapy was the best thing I ever did for myself. I’ve been going for over 3 years and although I have t coped with absolutely everything (because it’s just hard for me to talk about certain things still), I have improved immensely since my initial visit. I think literally anybody can benefit from therapy regardless of what they have or have not gone through. You don’t have to have gone through extensive trauma to be a candidate for therapy. You should definitely look into it. Cognitive behavioral therapy is great!

Answer

Yes. I have been going to therapy on and off since I was 14 years old. It helps, but it only helps if you actually apply what you get out of therapy. 
It also takes time to find the right kind of therapy for you. If you are find with just talking about your feelings, then talk therapy is perfect. It’s some where to vent and bounce things off a professional. For me, I can’t stand talk therapy. I need homework, I need solutions, I need change. I have anxiety, dysthymic disorder and PTSD, so cognitive behavioral therapy is what works for me. Just talking about my emotions or feelings didn’t do it for me. That’s what I had a journal for.  It’s a matter of finding the right fit and the right therapist. That can take time, so don’t be discouraged by it.

Answer

I go once a week for the past 4 years and it has helped me so much.

Answer

I was severely depressed growing up and until I went to a therapist in high school I didn't start getting any better. After I started going to therapy and working through everything I started feeling a lot more rational and clear headed. Like I could think again, that fog that was down on my brain was lifted. I'm not over being depressed, I'll live with that for my life I think but now I can deal with it and manage. Without it I may not have made it so far.

Answer

I go. It truly does help.
