Therapy
Jen:
Thanks so much for replying. I am so glad that your person is working out for you. And...I understand about the stigma of seeing someone. I know it was sophomoric in my thinking but sometimes I felt like I 'failed' by going. Like I could not handle things on my own and needed help.
I do not feel that way anymore and am no longer embarrassed to tell people that I go. I really like the man I see...maybe *I* am just no good at this. Or maybe I want my depression to go away TODAY!
I have a 13-year history of it so, really, it's about time I saw someone, huh??
Thanks again!

I don't think of going to therapy has a stigma attached to it. The place I would has an EAP program and allow for 6 free therapy visits a year. My co pay for the therapist is only $10.50. Where can I go and ***** and complain to someone without worry it will get around to others for that price. I think that it would be silly not to use all resouces available.
