I feel you. I have no one to talk to about stuff except for my psychologist and it's really messing with my head. I do live with my family though so it's not like I'm all alone, but basically I have no one at those times when I really need to talk or discuss something that isn't everyday small talk. I also spend most my time lurking and barely post anything. It doesn't help that I have nothing to do with my free time whatsoever so I end up watching random videos on Youtube or reading fragments of news articles about things that don't interest me. Other times I just play music while staring at my desktop background. Can't explain it very well but I feel like my mental health is steadily deteriorating. Very noticeable with how OCD I became.

>> No.12202519

>>12202488
It had nothing to do with courage in my case, I simply felt that I needed help. There were lots of ups and downs to that decision but ultimately I can say that I would've probably gone mad without my psychologist. In my opinion it doesn't matter how down to earth you are, you wouldn't be able to maintain a healthy mind without human interaction. At some point stuff like video games and anime start to lose their charm, or at least that's how it is for me.

Also yes, it does feel somewhat comforting to have /jp/. I've gone through a lot of shit in the past years but I've been coming to this board since it was created. Thank you /jp/ for all the wonderful memories.

Also I forgot to say that I wouldn't recommend a psychologist to everyone. I found it to be a mixed bag, personally. You learn many things about yourself that perhaps you would've been better off not knowing (but having them affect your life still), and you have to either face or deny them. Psychologists also have different methods of treatment, so you need to find the one that is best for you. It's really down to the individual to decide whether they need a psychologist or not (and if so then what method suits them best), and whether they find psychological treatment beneficial to them or not.

Well, you could potentially get diagnosed with things you never thought you had. Then you might question the psychologist and think they're lying just to keep you coming, or doubt your own perception of who you really are (or thought you were), or even both. So you need to be ready to deal with that sort of things when you go to a psychologist, or at least that's how it is from my personal experience.

My psychiatrist referred me to a male psychologist because "he might have a better outlook on things from my perspective" but I'm afraid what he'll think about such failure as me. At least women have some motherly instinct and shit.

What makes you say that? Therapists can only help you help yourself; you need to talk to them about yourself, first; open up, you know. That's what you pay them for.
If you want something to "cure" yourself, there is no such thing; the human mind is not that shallow in complexity.
You can drug yourself into oblivion, though.

She doesn't tell me how to act or what to do or anything like that. What I meant is that psychologists might tell you things about yourself that you didn't know, so you have to be ready to deal with that. That being said you're right, psychologists shouldn't tell you what to do (although some do, I think, depending on the method used), and on top of that they could be wrong with their diagnosis as well. Appreciate the concern though.

I made a rule to talk with my therapist, I just talk everything that goes to my mind (of course I tell that to my therapist).

So I always start talking stuff like "you must be thinking that...", "I just remembered a game I played...", etc. It worked like a charm, no more uncomfortable silences.

But 777-kun, the people outside don't like me. I try to make connections, but so far they have all fallen through or if someone's interested it's only because they're not genuine and want something from me. Also, if I tried to hug a girl she would be okay with it if I were a Chad but even though I am fit, intelligent and dress well she would say that I groped her and file a sexual harrassment lawsuit against me which would ruin my life.

Stuff about my life mostly, but I also talk to her about other things that I have no one else to talk to about like a movie I watched and liked or something I read that had an impact on me. Also my psychologist is pretty young, so it's easier for me to talk to her like a normal person. I think I lucked out though, because the majority of psychologists I had met before (just once for school stuff, save for one that I was seeing during my sophomore year because she was affiliated with my school and it was free) were middle aged women.
