āIām fine
āI'm ok
āIām just a bit tired
āJust have a few things Iām trying to sort out
Any of these sound familiarā¦ probably because at some point youāve said this to mask or hide how you were feeling.
You might have felt uncomfortable or not wanting to burden anyone with what you were dealing with.
Well, the truth is we all have challenges in this life, just recently we all went through a global pandemic which left some of us separated from family, friends and the rest of the world.
These conditions can leave long-lasting effects that if not addressed can add to other things youāre ādealingā with.
In short, therapy is an extremely good solution and a great way to manage daily pressures.
Unfortunately, therapy sometimes gets a bad perception as only being needed by unstable or insane individuals.
This is far from the truth!
Therapy is used to prevent most people from getting to those extreme stages.
A little secret - some of the highest-performing professionals seek weekly therapy sessions or take part in some form of therapeutic activity.
āSo why are you telling me all of this
It is important to realise that therapy is for everyone and you often donāt need to wait for someone to tell you or wait until you feel you have no other option but to seek it.
Most Therapists have a free consultation so you donāt waste any unnecessary time or funds.
Only you can take care of your mind and your mental state and only you can accept the assistance to do so.
