    How do I tell my parents I want to see a therapist? I know we can’t afford it, but I am tired of being stuck.

    • Just be honest and ask that they be open minded in advance. Tell them that you need help outside of them. Most insurance cover therapy and you can always go to free clinics therapist which you may have to pay $25 at the most. Don’t research for your town and have the information you find first before approaching your family so it can be less stressful for the both of you. Good luck and please feel free to message me anytime:)

    • Sorry typo *DO research:)

    • I would just be honest with them and say you want to seek counselling and therapy @invisibleshadows, I’m sure you will find the right one for you, you are taking a bold, brave and courageous step, remember to keep going and don’t give up, you are on the road to better days, hold your head up high and smile, you can do it, I’m always here if you need to chat, message me anytime, my inbox is always open, stay strong, you are never alone :) (hugs)
