Therapy is great!!

[killers2]

I'm telling you it is a good thing and nothing to be ashamed of!  Have you gone?

[Nancy5]

I never went to therapy, but like you said, there is nothing to be ashamed about going.

My husband and I went to therapy/counseling several times over our 34 year marriage.  Nothing wrong with it and it can be extremely helpful - I really need to go now because over the last four years have lost my mom and my husband and I am dealing with a lot of medical/health issues but I need to call insurance and see how much it would be.  Right now I need to go to cardiac rehab and I'm trying to figure out how to afford the co-pay on that and if I can even do it with other health issues I struggle with.

Therapy can be done with a professional or you can get therapy from any one of the cazillion self-help books/programs out there.

Some people won't see a professional no matter what. This is where the alternative programs come in like books, dvd's, programs etc...for those who are ashamed to see a professional.

No I have never gone, but you're right there is nothing to be ashamed of about going. It also can be good for you too.

Not to be religious but the church that I go has very good people whom anyone can come for a therapy sessions and it is not a religious related at all. Its like you go to any proffecional counceler and talk your issues through and get clear advice and suggestions. I honestly think support groups of any kind is also considers as a form of a therapy. As well as listening to a soothing music and meditation can also be very therapy related.
