How has therapy changed you?

I feel like I’m very opinionated and clash with others (mainly my family...) and i just want to talk through with someone on how to be less defensive. I know i take everything personally because it stems from childhood experiences and i just need to break that habit.

Also what kind of therapist am i supposed to look for? First timer here, and not sure what to expect or even look for in a therapist. Or even how to begin the search 😂

I’ve had issues since high school, but just formally got diagnosed with ADHD. I’ve always managed to get by okay at work (I’m no super star), but remote meetings have been really difficult for me and I now feel like I’m barely hanging on. Trying meds now, but no benefits yet. Pros and Cons of disclosing the diagnosis to my team, partner, or firm? I’m torn.

Hi! In Dec. I saw I was being underpaid & expressed my frustration to my boss & HR & was told they can’t do anything until may. I was also encouraged to look for an internal role at a more sr level to get closer to the salary I’m looking for. I don’t want to leave my role yet & my boss says she thinks she can make the salary bump happen for may. I’ve received 2 offers elsewhere & turned them down & just got one for 25% pay bump. it’s getting harder to stay on when I know I could be making more.

I’m 30 and have had very little experience with women. I’m very selective and theoretically know my self-worth, but in practice feel so inferior around women- like even if it’s someone I wouldn’t be..

I had something traumatic happen and don’t feel comfortable sharing personal information to the team. I need some time to collect myself but what is the best way to gain empathy?

I am realising that “being happy at work” is a myth, and the whole love what you do stuff is also BS. Novelty wears off eventually. I guess job/work is something I’ll have to do if I want to be able to afford the luxuries of life and I’ll need to find happiness elsewhere. Does anyone else feel the same way? I don’t want to be negative but I feel I need to change something somewhere.

My best friend is getting married. I’m very happy for her. But I’m also insanely jealous. She sent me pictures of her wedding dress and while I told her she looks amazing - I can’t stop crying. Her relationship was as long as my ex was cheating on me.

She’s asked me to be her maid of honor - but I want to turn it down so she doesn’t have to see me crying. I already broke down when she told me she was engaged. I was able to keep it together to help her now fiancée do something special.

I’ve suffered from workaholism for a long time. Thanks to a lot of great self help books and therapy, I’m no longer putting work on a pedestal and I’m spending a lot more time on self care and my marriage. But, unfortunately, I am now getting withdrawals, because my body is used to the daily adrenaline of throwing myself into work. It’s this terrible feeling of like anguish/unease in my gut, but I don’t have anything I’m worried about- it’s like my body wants to find something to worry about.

I can barely sleep, average sleep hours- 4-5 max, with only 18-20% deep sleep. Am I gonna die soon?😂😂

Effing anxiety. Does it never go away? Mine comes and goes in cycles. I feel like I am doing fine one week, and then suddenly it arises and worsens and makes me want to end everything. And then I live like a walking corpse for a few days not able to feel anything coz I have given up on life. And then it gets better. Every few months. Is it going to be like this all my life?
