Thinking quitting therapy

[becca123]

hey so its my first time posting a thread and i really dont think this is triggering but who knows i could be wrong so sorry if i am

k so ive been going to therapy for awhile now and i started about 8 months ago and im on my 5th social worker right now they keep moving me around and saying they cant help me but now im seeing someone that i think ill be able to stay with and i like but im not sure about the whole thing. im really just sick of having therapy and i dont think its helping and its causing fights between my mom and i but iono im scared if i stopped things could get really bad but its possible that its making it worse. what should i do?

If you like the therapist you are with now and you feel like it's helping, I say stick with it! Although therapy may have disppointed you in the past, give this person a chance if you really feel like they can help you. Why is it causing problems with you and your mom? She should be thrilled that you are seeking help. Whatever you choose to do, good luck. <3

Some therapy just doesn't work for some people. I'm doing DBT at the moment and they keep telling me that I should consider quitting. BUT, if you do quit, don't quit all together, get some other professional help in place before hand. Stick with what you're doing for a while I think, if you do feel/continue to feel that it's making it worse look into other options.

if you like them, stick with it. you've been moved from person to person and it might be helpful now you're with someone properly. i'm sorry it's causing arguments with your mum - does she not like it?
