My therapist called back on Tuesday night – I have an appointment with him next week Wednesday
I’m real looking forward to it. There’s a few things I need to get off my chest :)
How I did it: Got mum to give me my therapist's number, gave him a ring, left a message, waited for him to call back and arrange a session time - then when that was done, I got the bus to the train station, and got the train to his office
(I don't think I needed to go into *that* much detail, but you need a 150 character minimum for how you did it, so there you go, total rundown)
Lessons & tips: Just do it! Hehe, therapy is a good way of getting things off your chest when you feel as if you can't talk to anyone else about your problems.

Called the therapist on Friday and left him a message saying I needed to talk to him and asked about setting up an appointment – which was a miracle in itself seeing as I hate phones and try to put any type of phone-usage off if I can help it.
Waiting for him to get back to me.
I’m real excited to be starting therapy again, I really need it – I’m anxious, stressed, the parting IS starting to turn into a bald spot and frankly I’m over this shit.

I’ve been needing to do this for a while.
The last week has been pretty tough and I’ve let quite a few things get the better of me. I need to save some money before I start sessions though. So It will probably be in a few weeks
I don’t have too much pride to admit that I need to go back to therapy. I’ve been so stressed out and I’m afraid that I won’t handle it in the right way. I also don’t really trust anyone anymore – I need someone to talk to who isn’t going to run to the nearest idiot and tell them everything I said. I have two great friends I can tell anything to, but sometimes you just need a little more – just someone you can tell anything to – and then they can’t judge you or say anything.
Many therapies have become very popular in Western society. People no longer feel ashamed for going to therapy – which is a very positive thing. But for quite a few people it is very hard to find a therapy which might give them the full benefits. Therefor people still wonder about: what can I expect from a therapy?
In general one must notice that the effect of therapy depends on the type of therapy. Therapy or treatment is the attempted remediation of a health problem, usually following a diagnosis. Some therapeutic methodologies from Western medicine, Eastern medicine (especially traditional Chinese medicine), and alternative health care include: acupuncture, agoratherapy, aromatherapy, art therapy, colour therapy, crystal healing, drug therapy, diversional therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, immunosuppressive therapy, light therapy, magnet therapy, massage therapy, morita, moxibustion, music therapy, naikan, occupational therapy, phage therapy, physical therapy, physiotherapy, play therapy, postural integration, psychotherapy (for example, cognitive therapy, Gestalt therapy, group therapy), radiation therapy, recreational therapy, sand tray therapy, sex therapy, shock therapy (for example, electroconvulsive therapy), speech therapy, surgery.

the first step is by far the hardest step. But once you’ve got your head wrapped around all those false damaging internal dialogues you need an external source to clarify what’s helpful and what’s damaging.
If you at all want to break a cycle that you’re in, and work to not get stuck again.
