Yes, starting therapy is scary. Yes, it's worth it.

, when hardly anyone you know has done it: none of my family and only one of my close friends. I second-guessed myself constantly at the start. Did I really need this? Wouldn't it be awkward? Would it actually be worth the money? And of course,isn't easy, so I had plenty of opportunities to procrastinate and took full advantage of them.

At some point, though, my coping mechanisms ran out and I felt like I had nothing to lose. It's scary to start something new, but it's not fun to be anxious and unhappy all the time, either. If you're trying to psyche yourself up to start this process, or if you're just wondering what's it like, here's what starting therapy was like for me.You don't need to have a mental illness to go to therapy.

I'm not here to sugarcoat things, so in all honesty, starting therapy was hard, nerve-wracking, and uncomfortable. First you have to and then you have to actually talk to them about your problems , but sometimes you have to go through the scary stuff because you know there's something better waiting for you on the other side. I kept telling myself it would be worth the stress and uncertainty, and it has been.

It took me a long time to convince myself that yes, I should go to therapy, and yes, it will be worth the stress and anxiety at the beginning. Several sessions in, it's already been incredibly rewarding to see the process pay off, which is why I'm here writing this. If you think you could benefit from therapy, let this be the sign to go for it, even if you're scared, even if you don't think anything is"wrong" with you.
