In many periods of our lives, we go through some difficult processes for us. For example, relationship problems with your partner, anxiety caused by an accident, anxiety caused by our physical problems, depressed mood due to a negative situation at work. While we overcome some of these processes, we have difficulty in overcoming others. What should we do in such situations?
Therapy can help us cope with difficulties, raise awareness and provide emotional well-being. It increases our capacity to carry the emotions that we define as problems and can make us see that our wrong thoughts are not actually real. But deciding to seek therapy is a personal choice. Sometimes we may be afraid or afraid to seek therapy because of social and cultural stigma. However, if we give an example from developing countries, it is possible to say that every individual has a psychologist, and in cases where we cannot cope with life's problems alone, it is possible to say that everyone has a psychologist, just as every individual is a family doctor. Getting psychological support can guide us in solving the problems that we have difficulty in overcoming. It can guide us to make healthier decisions and to manage life in a more positive way.
So when should we get support?
-
When we start not enjoying the activities we do often
-
When we feel sad or unhappy all the time
-
When we feel tired or low on energy
-
When we feel worthless or self-blame
-
When we feel intense and excessively anxious
-
Physical manifestations due to worry or anxiety if we have symptoms
-
If we have sudden panic attacks or are worried about having an attack
-
If there are avoidance behaviors or social withdrawal
-
If we think we have unrealistic fears or phobias
-
If we have obsessions or rituals that we cannot stop
-
If there are recurring memories and nightmares that come to our mind after a traumatic event,
This du If you are experiencing one or more of these situations and this prevents you from doing the things you always do or fulfill, or if you think that it reduces your quality of life, you can take action to seek psychological support and find the right client.
