Mardou, thank you very much for sharing. Tragically, many people look down at therapy and at people who seek therapy. Every single person alive is broken in some way, some more than others. I commend you for going to and continuing therapy. BTW, I love your art work!

Thank you for sharing. In India we have a lot less therapists and lot of talkative strangers. Life in India means strangers are quite comfortable asking personal questions that you wouldn't ask your siblings, parents, kids or besties in the Western World. We talk a lot to each other and when I travel in the Western world we find it strange that people don't talk to each other. Indians constantly talk to strangers in lifts, public transport... everywhere. Sadly, we are also going the Western way and have over the decades stopped talking as much as we used to. And sure enough the number of people in therapy is going up. May you find joy and peace within yourselves.

The right therapist can be a literal life saver. I have at least four therapists to thank for my being still alive. If I had the money I would still be in therapy! With the right therapist it's a tremendous adventure.

Thanks for sharing. I am glad you feel better. I hope it encourages others.

As a partner to a person in therapy, thank you. I needed this.

don't worry it gets better

Thank you for sharing. I have a hard time talking about my feelings and recently had some feelings of sadness, emptiness and self hate. The littlest things would set me off. I kept it a secret because I thought my parents wouldn't take it seriously. I talked to counselors online sometimes but I knew I couldn't go on like this. I opened up to my mum about it and she talked me into going to a therapist which I will start soon. I'm hoping it will get better.

Huh
