Can anyone help?

Question

This is a weird question but how do I go about scheduling an appointment with a therapist?..I really need to talk to someone because my mind is out of control right now and I need help but I don’t know exactly how to go about it...and I’m kind of scared to ask for the help I don’t know if I’ll even be able to say what’s on my mind to a counselor.

Answer

Counseling is nothing to be ashamed of. I went all through my middle and high school years then almost recently started again with my sons pregnancy because my anxiety has seriously been awful. Maybe see if someone you know has been, get local recommendations. My town has a fb group and people can post anonymously in it for you to get some. That’s a good way to start because it also REALLY matters if they’re good. My fiancé went to counseling when we first got together and hated it but he also went to some random Joe Shmoe his insurance sent him to. Call around local places and ask them if they take your insurance. Also, once you start give them a chance .. I HATED my councilor at first and I grew to absolutely love her. (I was also a rebellious teenager that didn’t wanna go😂) but it’s not a one size fits all deal, you need to be able to connect with them. They could be an amazing counselor but just not for you. I hope things get better 💗

Answer

One way would be to ask for a referral from your primary care physician. Another way would be to go on your insurance website and see who they pay for. If you don't have health insurance, google behavioral health clinics and call them to see how they operate.
