Yup, I was in therapy about 11 years ago or so, in order to make a very difficult choice, and I was also in counseling when i was little, like 6 or 7, when my Dad went sober to help me deal with the effects that his alcoholism had on our family. I was also on anti-depressants a couple years ago to treat my EXTREME anxiety and temper-tantrums
Therapy is good because, like lookingglass said, it helps you to look within yourself cause sometimes that it is very difficult to do.... even now I analyze myself and the things I do to figure out WHY i do them. Also, I feel ya on the friend issues, I'm a loner also, every friend I've had has ended up betraying me, including my ex-husband, so now I have a very hard time opening up to people
