Sometimes it is possible to be cured without therapy but it is highly recomended by mental health professional to go for a therapy when your mental health is at risk.

My family won't take mental health issue seriously although I am taking medications for the symptoms like headache, dizziness but I won't be able to have therapy .

But, also I am not getting better and my physical and mental health are getting worse. So confusing it is..

hi and welcome aboard talking therapy and acceptance is our best way of dealing with our issues we might overcome ssome issues/fears we have only to be brought back down again.its not a cure but the above will go a long way in changing your life.

Thank you so much for your kind words.

Actually I need therapy, but as I am a student and my family is not aware of my mental health so I can't do anything for this.

I need to talk to someone but firstly I don't have close friends and also I am very bad at sharing my emotions with anyone but right now the symptoms and physical and mental conditions are at peek level. I don't know what to do.

Hi 👋

I find talking helps me, even if it’s just on here or other social platforms. You say your a student.... doesn’t school/college ect have any counsellors or pastoral support that maybe you could talk to?

Hi User, I see that you’re a student. Is there a student health center or school nurse you could work with?

It was mentioned earlier how it’s sometimes a challenge to find a therapist you connect with. In my experience I’ve had them look at their phone in the middle of me sobbing my heart out, or seem bored. I’ve also had good experiences. The right fit is important.

I searched for that, but there is actually nothing like that in my college and just writing the thoughts is not helping me because I think I need to talk..

And this thing makes me feel even more anxious and irritated that how will I become normal..
