I’m not shy about seeing a therapist. I find that guilt or shame based around such a thing is silly and, if for no other reason, other people might be more inclined to pursue it in order to help them in their own life if I’m open about how it impacts my own.
Therapy has become such a helpful and positive thing in my life. While I think I went for one specific reason, other things obviously manifest themselves that deserve and require attention. But that’s the beautiful part. That the ‘thing’ that you want to discuss really is only a door to a platter of issues, emotions, feelings and thoughts that want addressing.
It’s interesting that most people whom I’ve told about therapy also wholeheartedly endorse it, with “Everyone should go to therapy” becoming the typical response.
