DEVASTATED. Anyone tried professional help already?

My mother is a therapist and bealive me when I tell you she hear much much peculiar thigs than this. Real professionals do not judge, they listen and try to help. I am having a very hard time with this too, I dont sleep well, I cry all the time and I know I am lossing weight. My sister is on therapy right now and I ask her if it would be too crazy to go about my lost and she say "If you need it, you need it we all have diferent problems and all of them are valid"
Go to seek help I know that if I dont feel better in a few weeks I will.
Hugs and kisses to all of you who are going trough this with me. I feel you and understand you from the bottom of my heart!

also people have alot of misconceptions about professional help. nobody will force you to do anything. alot of the time sessions are just talking. in the first few sessions if youre seeing a psychologist generally its a q&a session with the psychologist asking questions about family life, childhood, school. etc. also they always ask if youve seen a professional before? if you dont want to answer something you dont have to. some people find it hard trusting strangers. and psychologists understand that too. but there are a lot of people hurting and honestly theres so much help out there that you dont need to do this alone and thats one of the biggest misconceptions. alot of people walk around feeling like nobody else will understand what theyre thinking. feeling. what theyve been through. but people surprise you and honestly there are alot of people going through the same thing. even psychologists see psychologists. it doesnt mean youre weak or stupid or anything like that. at the end of the day youre human and its okay to ask for help if you feel you need it.

I'm doing all i can to avoid and fight the need of professional help because noone here would understand,that i could be feeling the way i am feeling,because of Michael.
But if the lack of sleep and stomac problems go on,i might have to do it...

Maria, you can trust me when I tell you they will understand.

Listen, in decent mental health care, there is no judging! For professionals it doesn't matter what troubles you present. What matters is that these problems interfere with your personal wellbeing and that they can give you tools to overcome whatever is holding you back in your day to day life. No matter what. Professional counsellors treat whatever problem you present like a doctor treats a broken leg or an ulcer. Only now there's no magic pill but talking involved.

Like krism said, you are not crazy to seek psychological help. The majority of people counsellors see are seeking help for 'common' things like having to deal with a loss, a divorce, anxiety, fear of failure, low self-esteem and so on and so on. So don't feel like a fool for seeking help. If anything, it shows that you are strong, that you have courage and that you are not affraid to accept a helping hand during difficult times. :better:
 
I had my first counselling session today at the hospital I go to for treatment. I actually walked away feeling like a huge weight had lifted off my shoulder. Sometimes it's good to talk to people who don't know you and don't judge you, or at least don't voice their judgements outloud. Noone should feel crazy or stupid to try therapy out. It's a common thing these days. :)

Maybe if anyone thinks a therapist won't understand their pain because it's about Michael, you could say you've lost a dear friend and proceed that way until you feel safe getting more specific. I don't know, just an idea, though I still would like to think a good professional would understand anyway....

I could try what you said,but i really want to avoid it as much as possible.
I'm tired of needing professional help.I think it's enough,even if maybe i should go on.
At this point i can't care less what is best or worst.I need to focus on my mother and maybe that will help me.Thank you so much for your post

I can't thank you enough for everything you do and say...
maybe if i was in a normal,develloped country,that would be true.But being an Mj fan in my country is not easy at all.
I don't know why this country is so stupid,so blind,so ancient...Noone accepts different ideas,different thoughts and different ways of living.
Everything is bad...everything is a sign if it's not done their way.
well...i always said and felt that i was born here by mistake,and since this tragedy happened,i am completly sure of it.
In my family noone likes michael but me.
In my country,Michael dosen't have lots of fans.
I got used to it because my love for Michael is so strong,so deep,so true,that it can cover all my family,friends,and population of this country,but let me tell you,my friend,that here a therapist would never understand my love for Michael.
I already spoke about him in a session and what i got in return was silence,and a look as if saying that i am crazy.But like i said,i can't care less what this doctor thinks,or anyone at all.
Here all they want is money and my money they will not get it anymore,unless i don't have a choice.
 
It seems like half of this forum is already seeking professional help with me included.
