>Going to a therapist
>please send help
You are confused, you are going to the help

All I can say is, don't expect INSTANT improvement. Shit takes time. Not 1 session or 5 or whatever, but months and years

Good luck

maybe OP meant
>the rapist
would make much more sense

But I'm scared, I don't want her to laugh at how much of a fucking loser I am
I don't expect much, don't worry

Senpai it's a therapist. Its her job to deal with losers, and there's no fucking way you're the worst she's seen in a month let alone her entire career

Besides why even care about what she thinks, she won't have any other function in your life apart from the sessions. You won't see her elsewhere and she won't interact with your life in any way.

It's no different than venting to random strangers online

She isn't going to laugh at you or call you a loser. For your first session you will probably just be telling her general things about yourself the whole time.

user.... I think he/she has seen worse.
If they are good they will make you feel comfortable to open up.

Assuming you're a man, try and get a male therapist if you can.
Therapy in general is fucking terrible but a man might at least be able to understand what you're going through.

A gorilla's penis.

You will fill out forms asking you all sorts of standard questions.

After that therapist will look through it and ask further questions.

You gotta discuss together what your aims in the therapy are, otherwise it is useless.
Also if you cannot open up, or don't think you can deal with the therapist, it is useless and a time waste.

What illness/troubles do you have?

>her
My condolences man

Oh wait shit op is probably at the therapist now

How long does these therapy sessions last for

Let's hope he is at the therapist and not the rapist.

>tfw was going to make an appointment with a therapist today but no idea where to start
If you come back to this thread I'd love to hear how you even got this set up OP. I've had a bunch of bad experiences with therapy but I want to try again, life is unbearable.

probably why he is traumatised in the first place

Can you tell us about your experience with the therapist

>therapist for suicidal thoughts at 11
>old lady that scolds me and calls me "rude" for making trouble for my parents

>see psychiatrist at 16
>fat Indian normalfag that jokes around and talks about himself the whole time
>brought my mom into the room after a few sessions and told her I'm gay and autistic
>never said anything about feeling gay or autistic, am not, what the fuck
>mom made fun of me on the way home because he called me autistic

>see therapist in college
>pour problems out to her
>tells me she is retiring after session is over and says I'll have to find somebody else

>go to therapy center for full-screening asessment and therapy
>makes me draw a family, do Rorschach, make stories from pictures, word association, surveys
>they think I'm a perfectionist and that's it
>see female therapist for suicidal thoughts and depression and anxiety
>gives me weight loss advice instead because I was obese (fml lol)
>see another guy for same reason there
>tells me to drop out of college and "do what makes me happy" despite being a semester from graduation

>get pissed off and stop going to therapy
>marinate in mental illness and addiction for three years
>can't find job now after college and too fucked to attend interviews without freaking out
>tfw time to repeat the process YET AGAIN but so desperate I have to try

That's fucked if true. I've run into some useless therapists but your sheer bad luck is horrifying, they typically give me generic advice instead of "drop out of college lol you'll be happy bro"

I went to see a therapist because I was tired of being a useless procrastinating fuck. She then suggests that maybe I just like being a useless procrastinating fuck and should just do what makes me happy before diagnosing me with a bunch of shit I didn't have and trying to sell me pills.

At least it wasn't a waste of money given I didn't use my own insurance

Can't find a job after college yet you are upset at the dude thay told younto drop out and be happy?

Thanks for the (You), I guess I have had some bad luck but I always felt like it was my fault somehow for not making it work and giving up so quickly.

Uhhh I already spent four years and all that money, it would have been fucking stupid to drop out when I was so close. I'm glad I'm unemployed with a bachelor's and not an unemployed dropout, at least I have a fucking shot. It was hard with wanting to kill myself 24/7 but I'm glad I stuck with it.

Fair enough. Just don't get stuck on sunken cost fallacy. If the job you get is going to make you miserable it may not be worth the time

How does one even make an appointment to see a therapist? There aren't any in my town and I don't know of any anywhere else. I've read that your doctor can refer you to one but I've never even met my doctor since I was a kid. I doubt you just call the office and tell the receptionist "I'm sad and need a shrink".

>going to the therapist

yellow soiboy coward bitch, you will see no improvement.

Sounds like shit user, feel for you

>trying to sell you pills
Your therapist is shit and is trying to shove whatever estrogens or drugs to shut you up

Also what did she diagnose you with anyway?

OP here, she told me I have social anxiety and sent me to a male therapist like said. She also said I should do group therapy but I don't want to
And what should I do instead nigger

Not that guy but
>If the job you get is going to make you miserable it may not be worth the time
If I followed that I wouldn't have a job at all which isn't going to work. Maybe my whole life is a sunk cost that I shouldn't be clinging onto.

>social anxiety
Not bad, what pills did she recommend?

then don't see the kike
it's just a fucking normalfag

No pills yet, I don't think she had the jurisdiction to give me some, she was just a psychologist who derives people to other professionals
