Counselling? Worth a try?
It's been suggested that counselling would be a good idea, as i suffer anxiety attacks often.
I didn't have the best upbringing because of my mum and don't speak to my mother at all.
Do you think counselling is worth a shot?
Answers:
yes!
there are many strategies that a counsellor can teach to deal with anxiety and they can also, if you want them to, help you sort out what brongs on the anxiety and how to overcome it.
give it a shot. it will be worth your while..
and just for your info.. I don't talk to my mother either.
YA GOT NOTHING TO LOSE!
No harm..go for it
It helps
yes i would say counselling is excellent
Yes, you have something to gain from it, and nothing to lose, if it doesn't work out.
i think it can help if you are prepared for it to help.
you have to be open and ready for help and ready to understand.
it cant hurt. if counseling doesn't help you may consider upgrading to a psychiatrist.
Counseling is worth I shot in my opinion. Find someone that you feel comfortable with, that is very important. Good luck!
Yes, I have anxiety attacks too. Therapy and meds have helped me tremendously.
Yes. I do. I know alot of people that have benefited from it. Try it out. If you don't like it, don't go back. Good luck.
itd DEFINITELY worth a shot. It is the only thing that will help.
I personally think that counseling should prove to be good.
its worth a try perhaps if you speak about your upbringing and the reasons you dont speak to your mum it may help.at the end of the day you have got nothing to loose
Admitting that something is wrong is never easy, but I went through it. It was the most difficult decision I ever made. However, it made my life better, so it was one of the smartest things I ever did in my life. It helps. Go for it.
yeah of corse
Yes, counseling can help with your anxiety. But, the counselor should be non-judgmental and be able to converse at your level and be interesting and interested in you.
counseling can work wonders,my wife works for a couusiling center where there are all types of counselors and i have seen them work wonders on their patitents
Only if you really want to talk about it and believe that doing so will improve your state of mind. If not, it will dredge up old crap from the past that will bother you and you'll end up quitting.
yes, but you may want to look into certain medication that helps lessen anxiety attacks too. Have you been checked out for a chemical imbalance in your brain ?
You MIGHT be bypolar. Good luck
A good counselor can be a very positive experience, however I would recommend doing some investigating first. As there are undoubtedly poor counselors. A poor counselor can do more harm that good, for real. Also, I would also as for credentials and ensure that they are not so new to the field. Is your insurance paying, if so they might also be able to make some suggestions of who they have dealt with in the past. The counselor might also want to have both your and the person you have issues with attend at the same time, as the counseling progresses, but that takes time. The important thing is that you realize that there is something amiss now and that you are ready to work on it. Congratulations as that is truly half the battle. I wish you well.
All a counselor does is manipulate you into listening to yourself! If you are ready to listen to a couselor, you dont need one! Start analyzing your own problems and save a buck! If you feel your upbringing is a part of your problem, do like I do! I set back, think of some of the lame mistakes I have made myself in life, and can then honestly tell myself, Parents are as human as I am! I forgive them for their faults! I also think back when times were rough and my parent devoted her life to seeing to it that we werent in need! I dont forget these faults, I use them as a tool to better myself! I do however continue to love them! I then move on to improving myself! Let me tell ya! I got a long way to go!
yeah go for it and about ur mom
try to learn wht her problem is cos it isnt good thinking
only from your point of view
Definitely! Keep an open mind and be honest.
I used to suffer anxiety attacks all the time. With counselling and medication I almost have a normal life now.
Good Luck! Hang in there!
Counciling may be a good idea.. Is it your idea that you haven't talked to your mom. or is it her that won't talk to you?
As for you upbringing.. you have the choice in where that goes.. it isn't all her fault.. you know right from wrong.That was her main purpose in bringing you up.. she should have probably shown a little more love and attention the way it sounds but some moms just don't have it in them considering the situations at the time you were growing up..
You could go and sit and talk to you mom , make amends in what ever is troubling you about here and it seems that it will take care of your problems. if that is all that it is..
I haven't spoken to my mother for 25 years and it don't bother me but some would say i am cold hearted.. but better cold than being critized all the time and constantly hurt.. Go out and do soemthing to make your life a better place to be.. do something nice for someone else. it always makes you feel good..
sounds like you are pretty much grown so live your life the way that you want to live it and don't worry about what anyone else thinks about it.. get a job that makes you feel good about your self.
learn to enjoy the simple things in life..
good luck in what ever you do..
You didn't have a good upbringing and you don't speak to your mother.counseling is almost always benefical, there are also millions of self-help books for whatever ails you. Anxiety and other mental conditions are a symptom..you already know what it is.your mother. We do the best we can with our children, you are an adult time to take responsibility for yourself..it's not HER fault she is who she is and you are who you are. We have life lessons to learn and your's had to come from your mother, whether that be how to be a better mother, a better person, or just to learn how to forgive.
it is definitely worth it. if u go to a good church that offers counseling, i would try that 1st, if not or ur not sure then go see a therapist. you have to be open about your thoughts and feelings in order for it to work though, but it will. i speak from experience.
Very much worth it.may just save your sanity and your life!
It certainly is worth doing.
I have anxiety/ panic disorder and I was seeing a therapist. She was so amazing at helping me with coping techniques and letting me know that some anxieties are "normal" ones.
Their is not reason for you to suffer. Help is out there and can really make a difference.
Anxiety attacks are really hard to get through and the right therapist can make a huge difference.
God Bless!

Its a great resource with tons of information.
Yeah. It's worth a try at least. If it doesn't work out then you can say that you tried it. If it does then that's awesome. Sometimes though it takes a while to find a counsellor who you can trust and really talk to. So if you go to one counsellor and decide it's really not working it may be worth it to try someone else. Sometimes it's hard to find the counsellor who's the right match for you, but it's possible.
