so i did it.
yup.
i finally have done it.
it took a while,
but i been in serious need…
I have my first therapy appointment tomorrow!
foxhole,
you know i’ve been in need of a therapist.
i’ve been dealing with a lot of trauma for these last few years.
they have had me feeling pretty stagnant.
the rona brought up so much issues within me.
i had to confront shit that literally broke me down.
since i got insurance from the state,
i decided to start looking for someone to talk to.
i called one number a couple days ago and he called me back today.
so tomorrow afternoon,
we have our first “mental health” date!
as you can tell,
i’m so excited about this.
low-key: i feel a major shift has happened in my life recently.
i can’t explain it,
but i feel good.
I hope you’re doing it through Zoom or Skype. Don’t drag your therapist like Molly did and don’t be afraid to change therapists if they’re not a good fit for you. Being from the Caribbean, an African-American therapist might not understand that culture shock.
Yayy!! Good for you Jamari! I can’t wait to be looking into it as well. Are you going to the office or just doing a digital session? I’d be scared to leave my house in NY right now!
Regardless it’s an investment. I’m hapy you’re going to be taken care of!
So good to read that you are actively taking care of yourself. Keep it up!
This is a step of the right direction. Im glad you are taking care of self and doing what needs to be done.
I’m excited for you fox. I think we all know how much this will mean to you, especially in a time like this. I really hope that you can connect & feel safe so that you can open up & get down to doing the work. You’ll come out of this with a much shinier mental coat!
Its definitely a different Vibe!!! Believe that!!! (it works) Congrats on taking that step!!!
I love seeing black people take mental health seriously!
That’s good to hear. I’ve had a therapist in the past and it’s very helpful to a professional objective voice to talk to.
Nice! I had my first one (in 17 years) a little over a month ago. I have to say I’m so glad i did it…especially now with all that has happened since. Proud of you, Foxie!
^thanksssssss breezy!
That’s great new Jamari, U are a very insightful. intelligent man, U can only benefit from it. As a psychotherapist myself, I recently retired from my practice after about 30 years in the field. it will be beneficial to u.
^ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good to hear, I can’t wait to get back in it I miss having a professional to talk to. Sending nothing but positive vibes your way.
I have had a therapist for awhile now and it’s the best thing that’s happened to me.
^I FEEL SO READY NOW!
