I always get a little sad and think about if I’m happy, if this is the life I want, am I where I want to be - thoughts are overwhelming. Then people want to celebrate me and it’s difficult. But then I realized they want to celebrate because they love and appreciate me for me - and I try to see that as a pretty special thing. A great quote my friends say when we’re down on ourselves is “hey, don’t talk about my friend like that” 🙂 because we are deserving to be appreciated. And so are you.

Trying to find a psychologist that allows my insurance and almost nothing available. However, a lot of options for therapists / counselors that specialize in anxiety and depression. Really don’t want to see a psychiatrist yet because I want to try to “cure” my issues without medication until it’s truly needed and recommended. Have therapists helped you? What’s the difference other than a psychologist having a PhD I guess?
