Asking for help Mood
Sunday, July 6, 2008 | A Positive story

Well, I have finally done it, I've asked for help. I always thought I could fix myself, but I've come to realize I can't do that. I've just signed up with a counsellor who does e-counselling with the hope this will work this time. I've had two depressive episodes in the past 12 years that required medication to get me back on track but they both lasted a few years and I just don't want to lose that time again.

 

We haven't discussed any real issues yet but I feel this counsellor is very caring and supportive in our contacts so far and I feel really good about this - something I never thought I'd ever do.
