Re: Counselling
I'm just curious to know if any of you have ever undergone any sort of counselling before and more importantly, did you find it helpful?

Re: Counselling
I have. I was in therapy just as I was breaking up with my Ex fiance and then went back to therapy when me and my husband almost got divorced.
I found it extemely helpful in both cases. Especially with my Ex fiance' as he was a nightmare on wheels.

Re: Counselling
I have too. Very expensive, but very helpful in the end. For me it was better to talk about what was going on than pop pills to make it go away.

Re: Counselling
I am having to pop pills in the meantime as it takes so flipping long to get an appointment with a counsellor. At least we don't have to pay in the UK though :-\ For some reason I am shitting myself about talking to someone but at least it seems to be something that helps.

Re: Counselling
Don't be soo worried LLL, counsellors don't judge you or anything like that and it's a great way to get things off your chest and get some really good advice, provided you have a really good counsellor.

Re: Counselling
yeah i think talking to someone is about the best thing you can do for most things, depending on what the specific problem is that concerns you. Sometimes its nice to be able to have someone impartial to bitch to, and also to get a fresh person's persecitve on things. But make sure your going somewhere legit and not somoene who has no qualififcations.
Anyway, don't be afraid of it, at worst its just a waste of time (if u get a dickhead thearipist) and at best its really useful, myself i've found it helped me in some of my own personal struggles.

Re: Counselling
I've decided I'm not taking those pills.
My husband and I cleared some stuff between us last night and have decided to go our separate ways. That alone has made me feel better.

Re: Counselling
Babe I am sorry that your marriage didn't work out. Maybe if you tried marriage counselling, maybe you could save it but if everything is beyond repair then you both made the right decision.

Re: Counselling
The counseling I am going to undertake is just for myself.
We actually got divorced in 2004, then decided to give it another shot. We've been together 11 years and there's only so long you can flog a dead horse. I'm terrified, yet at the same time it feels like a massive weight has been lifted. It's very amicable, I am staying here 'til the new year then I need a place to rent and a proper job.
