Have you ever experienced therapy?

If yes, what was that last nail in the coffin situation which finally convinced you to start therapy and how was your experience? If not, have you ever considered and is there something specific preventing you from it?

Not by an actual therapist, but used to do monthly sit downs with my doctor when I was dealing with gnarly anxiety that I needed medication for

@richw that's great. Do you still do that? How did it feel when you first sat down with your doctor and discussed things?

Major anxiety is always a trigger to start therapy for me and I have done it off and on, when needed over a number of years, and pretty consistently over the last 10. It's up there as one of best things I have done for myself. I also use it proactively and not just reactively. I think it's important that whoever your therapist is, you feel some sort of connection with so if it doesnt feel right after a few sessions when you first go, maybe try somebody else.

I've been a few times and I have to say it was one of the best things I've ever done for myself. Working on myself with my therapist enabled me to develop a sense of boundaries rooted in self-respect, leading to understanding what it means to love myself. It changes how I perceive the world around me because it changes how I perceive myself..")))

@leyla_aliyeva1 Glad to hear that. Yeah this is what I also learnt recently that how you perceive yourself is how the world looks at you. Merely changing that perception changes so many things. :)

I have. I started 7 years ago and it definitely was the best decision. The self-knowledge is an important tool for a healthy life.

No, I haven't experienced therapy yet, but I've been considering it lately. I've heard good things about the therapist norwest and was wondering if you could recommend one. Thanks in advance!
