ok I'm about to apply to graduate school to become a School counselor ... i was wondering if you have any information on them... Also do things ppl say ever get to you or bug you... like how do you not take things home with you.

[SusanFee]

@NetteFraulein Good luck with your studies! School counseling is an admirable profession. I would encourage you to interview those already working in that field to get a better idea if it's a good fit for you. In regards to staying positive while helping others, it's possible by listening to their stories and searching for opportunities to change, shift, or refocusing on solutions.

i have a problem that affects me everyday but im too scared ti admit it, do i need counseling

[SusanFee]

Thanks for your question. Counseling may be helpful to you if your situation is negatively affecting your life. The professional relationship creates a safe, supportive, and confidential environment in which to share and explore healthy options. You don't have to live every day with an emotional burden.

[SusanFee]

[Musemaniac247]

Do I need counseling my mom brother and sister died in a car crash and I was put into care because my dad started to use drugs and 6 months ago I was told my dad had killed himself I have ran away from my care home twice and I get angry when people try and talk to me about it. 2 months ago I went to hospital as I started to cut myself. Do I need counseling?

@93CFD Hi, thanks! Unfortunately 8 months later and I'm still the same! But its a work in progress! I suppose I have problems with trust and everything else a 'not so good' childhood can bring about! But session at a time right! Never heard of the aripiprazole...but I think I'll stick with what I'm doing! Need to share feelings with someone at some point with intervention of some sort! Glad it worked for you!

[93CFD]

@ExplorerBrock aripiprazole helped me with my paranoia.. now i just talk away to her like shes an old friend... i know they arent supposed to be your friends but eventually you will feel like she is and you will talk without a problem...
