I have been getting counsel for the past month it do feel good when I leave the sessions. I'm starting to realize that the outside world is getting on with life and to listen to me talk about my situation is too depressing for everyone to listen to. Some people even change the subject quickly and have even stopped calling like they used to. The counseling sessions allow me to discuss my thoughts and feelings on a weekly basis in a safe environment.
