we're glad you're here!
i am curious why you say you don't want to go to therapy again? have you had bad experiences? i have a really great therapist that i enjoy talking to. i am really lucky...and it may not happen with the 1st person you go see (and that's OK). it's also not a sign that you can't handle what's going on; rather it's a sign that you're proactive about your health! going to therapy is smart, and it gives you more tools. also though, in my case, i found a good office overall, because they said from the outset that i was a participant in planning my path. if something wasn't working for me, we could try something else. so honestly, for me therapy isn't often so "clinical" anymore; i just usually go talk about my life stress and how to cope. even if i don't feel like going, i am always better for it. i hope you can also find a good situation if you go back!
