going under another layer of this onion i’m gon na be sharing what i go through off-camera with my mental health and likewise the app that i usage for treatment it’s online treatment it’s called talk area it’s not sponsored to be honest it has actually altered my entire life {since|because|considering that|given thathat there’s live chat there’s phone sessions video sessions and you can likewise message your therapist in between sessions which is terrific due to the fact that they’re allowing for easier access to your therapist depending upon what your requirements are the con is that not all therapists offer all modes of interaction and my very first therapist actually just offered chat sessions and phone sessions and when i in fact emailed betterhelp to complain they stated hello we’re so sorry however it’s at the discretion of the therapist to have these modes of interaction and due to personal reasons i wound up switching over to another counselor anyway who did use practically communication the sessions were about 30 minutes and if i seemed like there was a lot more to talk about i always asked my therapist if i could extend my time for an hour into book sessions you simply need to bring up the calendar and pick the days and times that work best for you and if there aren’t any days that work for you then you can collaborate that with your therapist i personally prefer the video sessions because i feel like talking face to face is constantly extremely handy for me but honestly there are a lot of days where i simply don’t wish to talk with someone so i was able to still schedule a live chat session instead of skipping out totally on therapy which i actually appreciated one of the cons in my opinion would be that if you have an in-demand therapist which was the case with the 2nd therapist that i saw sessions were constantly just scheduled out two to three weeks at a time and he was truthfully the very best therapist i’ve ever seen like in person and through online treatment so i was willing to wait that time for him this next con would be a personal experience of mine that my therapist when he did appear would in some cases show up like 10 or 15 minutes late with no warning without messaging me to let me understand that he was gon na be late so that just annoyed me a bit so there’s a tab for journaling and the journal entries are all blank they really have actually triggered entries now which you can also shuffle through if you want to use those instead and you might choose to share those journal entries with your therapist or simply leave them
going into a bit of my therapy journey and i believed that i had it all determined but kid was i wrong um so let’s discuss it let’s enter into it so to begin i started treatment at an actually young age luckily that was something that my mama did not like hide from me or shelter me from she understood that i was going through like some emotional things when i was more youthful and i had some difficulty um mentally regulating and problems with anger and simply a lot of various things going on when i was more youthful so my mom decided to put
you guys and i’m sorry you men really told me about this it resembles an app called talkspace and this is not sponsored by talkspace however i am interested in it this whole morning i actually was struggling and i struggled basically like every every morning specifically on the weekends like today’s saturday saturdays have actually constantly drawn they have actually constantly been actually difficult psychological days for me i don’t understand what’s next i’m just gon na try this out i may dislike it i don’t understand i don’t actually wish to get a therapist i’ve always wanted to simply deal with my psychological things without needing to get one because to me i just um i just don’t want to need to go through all of this and i don’t want to need to inform people all of my stuff and just go through all of this i simply don’t seem like doing all of this and i actually just wanted to handle this on my own i’m not 100 sure that i can after almost thirty years of attempting so we’re gon na get into that today uh i don’t understand i’m simply tired of handling this and like like i stated.
