Neep Help?

Talk...


It is very important to talk about the situation.  It may seem very hard to be able to discuss this topic for a long time but believe me, it helps.  You can talk to anyone really, anyone who is willing to listen anyway.  A close friend, a parent, another family member, or you can even go to a professional.  There are people out there whose job is to sit and just listen to your problems; take advantage of that.  Holding all of that emotion inside of you just doesn’t work.  It builds, it gets worse, and you just get overall depressed more than you already are; holding it in does absolutely nothing for you.

There are free services on most campus’s you can go to for help, or you can choose to pay for one and get help somewhere else.  If you aren’t much of talker than write, that is better than nothing.  Sit yourself down with a piece of paper and pencil or a laptop and write it out.  Putting your feelings down in front of you can truly help you understand just how you are feeling. 

Personally, for me it took a very long time before I could actually talk about anything without bursting into tears.  So don’t feel alone if you are the same way.  It has been a little over four years and I still find it difficult sometimes, it just takes time.  It is true when they say time heals all pain, the pain will never go away completely; but time does help you move on easier.

Here is a great website if you would like to find a therapist.

  1. I agree! Going to a therapist doesn't make you crazy, if anything it makes you less crazy. Sometimes all it takes is talking to someone with a different perspective or someone who knows a little more about how to deal with emotions. Someone who is not connected to your life and can take in what you are telling them can give you advice that no one else who knows you can give you.
