A little help

[aloneloner]

I'm very embarrassed doing this..but something needs done.

I want to find a therapist, but just the thought of it causes too much anxiety :sad:
I would like to find someone caring enough to help me through finding a therapist..I know that's asking a lot..maybe too much?

Has anyone else here dealt with this, its just feels like a fear of seeking help :crying:

It is hard to do, so take it step by step

Have a look at this psychologist locator Psychologist Locator - Welcome / Text Search and notice how they specialise in age ranges and areas of therapy - you can also search for male or female - see if you can find a similar search page for where you live and narrow down people you may want to see

This page breaks down what to look for and what to expect Finding a Therapist: Getting the Most out of Therapy and Counseling

I just went to my local GP, who referred to psychologists in the area and I got to pick one to start having appointments with.
I remember hating every minute of being there, explaining I needed a shrink. I felt so low & pathetic... but looking back now I am glad I forced myself through it. No regrets.
