@abcdefghi I started seeing a therapist this summer and it was one of the best decisions I have made! It has been a safe place to talk, cry, share frustrations, disappointments, feelings about those around me and how I handle interactions with those around me during this time. I think talking to a third party person can be extremely beneficial. I will say tho.... as helpful as it is, unless your therapist has gone thru this process, it still pays off immensely to have people who truly get what you’re going thru to lean into as well. I have found I need both.
