Just so you know I finally got a therapist so I'm starting to get real help with all the BS so this might mean bye or no?

I just met my therapist yesterday and she’s really nice.

@Zachary_Mendes123 Stay or don’t stay – that’s totally your call but I’m glad you got a therapist. That should help you the most.

I can’t tell you how glad I am that you took the plunge. Congratulations and here’s hoping that things quickly improve for you.

You don’t have to ask questions. I mostly just ghost around and read things I find interesting. I haven’t asked a question in almost a week. I prefer answering anyways.
No one here is going to try and convince you to do anything. If you want to stay, you’ll stay. If you don’t, you’ll leave. You are independent, you can make your own choices.

I am glad you got help. You will do a lot better now that you are seeing someone and talking to them face to face. I feel better after having an in-person conversation with someone about an issue because talking over text or online is hard. Everything can be misinterpreted.
I hope all goes well for you. :)

I have been in therapy for 30 years, and it has been enormously beneficial. As you can imagine, I talk about much different stuff today than when I started or even 5 years ago. Therapy helped me work through so much, and it’s now honestly no longer a part of me. I’m free of it.

You don’t have to stay just to ask questions. You can answer questions, too. It’s up to you. You get to decide what you want to do about your membership on this site.

@Zachary_Mendes123 I am glad you got a therapist. The people here are the same caring people. You choose.

I’m glad to hear that you are seeking help. I hope you understand that you will need to be completely open and honest with your therapist for them to help you.

Also, if you don’t feel like you have a good fit with the first therapist, make sure you keep trying them out until you get one that is a good match for you.

No need to leave Fluther. If you want, you can just observe for awhile, and jump in whenever you feel like you have something to add.

There are always going to be questions, and responses by others here on this site that can give you insight to some of your issues. And your own participation can be useful to other people.

Good luck, and check back in with us on your progress.

It might be helpful if you show your therapist your posts. Sometimes it’s easier to explain when you already have something written down.
