I feel lost and alone and worthless and I am looking for someone to mentor and counsel me, please help! :'(
I wasn't sure where exactly to put my thread because I suffer from multiple things; anxiety, OCD, depression, and something else. I am an 18 year old girl, and I feel like I've lost my way to be honest and very hopeless. No I am not suicidal or any of the like. Never. I used to go to therapy years back when I was 13-14 and it helped, but my therapist left and I stopped going after my issues at the time went away. Now at 18 I cannot afford to go back. I come from an upper middle class family, so there is no chance of getting anything free off of medicaid or a similar program, and my parents don't understand that well I am feeling like this so they told me to pay for it myself and I can't afford that.
What I am looking for I guess is someone to mentor and counsel me and help me understand from another perspective why I feel this way. Also to keep order with me, discipline, and help me get my life back on track because I feel so bad right now with it that it's all I can do is cry.
I know it sounds desperate but I've never done this before- would anyone be willing to help and not give up on me? Who knows, we may even become friends in the process :) Feel free to drop me a message
Hello! First of all, I am so sorry you're going through this. The problems you listed sound like something that would definitely deserve therapy, or even medication. That's very unfortunate your parents aren't willing to support you in this way. I'm not a professional, or a counselor, but I suffer from anxiety and OCD as well. I'm a 24 year old girl, btw. If you wanted to try it with me, I would be glad to offer you a sympathetic ear, at least. Or you you can use the "browse listeners" feature and find someone you think would be more suitable. Good luck!
I'm not really a licensed counsellor or a licensed psychologist, but I can try to help you by listening. :)
Yes I am very willing to try , however I am in no way professional but as a listener I do speak to a number of 'repeat' members.If you liketake a look at my profile and see if you would like to speak to me or maybe another listener.
Hey, it's really sad to hear that you are suffering from so many things. I'm not a councellor, but just a 19 year old guy, you can definitely share your feeling with me and I'll try my best to help you.
You don't need that stupid therapy, be angry to whom did this to you. World is very bad bad place.
