Well I guess this is the beginning

I finally got counseling kind of scheduled. I called today and while she doesn't have anything open for the evenings she is putting me on her cancellation list to call. Hopefully it won't take too long. She requested that I start out coming alone. I guess she needs to assess the situation before involving DH. I'm just not sure I'm really going to be able to open up to her.

I know its not the reason, but I feel like a crazy person going to see a therapist...

But then, I guess I am going a little crazy with the way life is going.

I would rather be hated for who I am, then loved for who I am not.

it is the ones who believe themselves to be truly sane, that are the ones who are indeed crazy. Having the ability to see that we are having problems, and attempting to do something about resolving the problems, is the most sane act any one person can make. Good luck with your counseling session.

Here's the thing...when you get physically sick, what do you do? You go to the doctor, right? Well, you have to take care of your emotional well-being, just the same as your physical well-being. Talking to the therapist is no different than going to any other doctor, in my book. I don't understand why it has such a negative stereotype to it.
