    That’s about the story of how am I about to try a fourth one in so many years. Gosh is it hard to find a good one ; taking the step to recognise you should see someone isn’t the hard part. Picking up your phone and call one isn’t the hard part. Fiding one that works for you is the damnedest hardest part of it, period.

    Don’t drop it. Keep trying.

      So true. Unfortunately both men rarely talk about feelings and were more or less forced by circumstance to seek help for mental health.

      They already hated the idea and now hate it more. When they have some sort of future relapse they’ll be be even more closed off to seeking help.

      Sucks.

      Yup, good therapists exist, but like most professions, finding one that works for you can be difficult.

      Having a bad therapy experience doesn’t mean you aren’t fixable, it means the therapist sucks.
