I want to go see a psychiatrist?
Question:
Answers:
is there a free counseling service in your area? that could be a good place to start. or talk to your family doctor. is there anyone else, like an adult friend, who you could talk to? the sooner you get some help, the better... and you do need help. someone who has known you for some time is best if there is anyone like that. do you have a family doctor? wishing you all the best, i wish i could help more.
I don't think you have any choice but to tell your mother, at least if you're not 18 and still living at home. If you're an American, your parents are going to be paying for the psychiatrist or dealing with an insurance company. If you live in a country which has universal health care, such as Canada, you still have to deal with the issue of having your parents consent to your treatment (again, that's if you're under 18). Honesty is really the best policy here. Tell your mother about your concerns and then get on with doing what is necessary to arrange to see a psychiatrist. As a parent, her focus will not be "I'm a bad mother" but "what can I do to help my child." As well, don't assume that she isn't already aware that something might be going on with you. Just talk to your mother.
Make an apointment with your doctor 1st they are trained to decide wether you need more proffesional help..problems can run in some families no ones fault its possibley the genes.
if anything she will be worried about you. tell her you want to go to therapy and just tell her why.
I used to cut and have anxiety like that, still do actually, but try talking to a friend. One that you trust, one that can help you without your mom knowing.
You don't have to ask your mom to take you to a psychiatrist. Make an appointment with your family doctor, and tell him/her how you have been feeling, and what you have been doing. Your family doc will refer you to a psychiatrist. (and even tell your mom for you if you ask him/her to).
If you don't feel that you can go to your mother, find another adult that you know and trust, tell them how you are feeling and whats going on with you then ask them to either help you get to a psychiatrist or hospital for screening or ask them if they can go with you to talk to your mom and then maybe mom will listen and take you to get the help that you so desperately need.
Do it SOON ! and Good Luck.
you should go see your doctor, he/she could refer you to a therapist. hope you get better xxx
my firend ! Do you know that JESUS loves you? IN CASES LIKE THIS you'er being tested of your strength wheather you have it or not. why try read GOD's word the Basic Instruction Befor Leaving Earth (BIBLE) and your must PRAYER.
Firstly, for you to go before God you must recognised that you are a sinner and you must repent of yours sins and ask God to for give you ,he'll help you (if you believe in him) every thing will work out. when satan ment for evil, God will turn it around for good ,trust me.
looking foward for your answer and God bless you
remeber that you are special!
The best part about your situation is that yo have options. I know that it can be real difficult when you feel that you have no one to talk to or that yo could causing more problems should you tell someone. However, you need to know that it is okay to share your problems with someone. If you are unsure of talking to your mom, talk to someone else. Call a hotline or talk to a counselor at school or at a clinic.
I don't think your mom is a bad mom just because she has two children who are troubled. In fact, I think it is great that she is getting your sister help (even if your sister doesn't think so). My sister had a rough time growing up and I am thankful our family cared.
It is important for you to talk to someone, anyone and stop cutting yourself, that is just wrong.
