What do you do when your mom is trying to get you to go to therapy and you don't want to? |
Issue My mom thinks that there is something wrong with me. And, to be honest, there could be. When she found out that i had voices in my head and knew i had thoughts of causing severe harm, even death, to people, she told me i was going whether i wanted to or not. What do i do? i want to get help with these problems, but it's embarrassing to know that other people know that there's things wrong with me. do i go, or trust my instincts and not go. Best Tip OK, firstly, you already know that you have a problem but you don't want the help because you are embarrassed. Listen, you have got to get over that. The professionals at the place you are going to go are the ONLY ones that have to know you are getting help for this. They are not allowed BY LAW to discuss it. You can ask your mom to PLEASE not tell other people or it will risk serious problems in your recovery. The professionals at the hospital or clinic have seen IT ALL - much much worse than your problems and will not laugh at you. This is their job. Therapy and treatment is what they do for a living. No one would risk their bread and butter to be so unprofessional and reveal to anyone that you are sick. Please let this go. Go get the help. Your life is at risk. Your life is all you've got - live it. Others Well, here you are online telling thousands of people that there may be something wrong with you, so that's a start! I would say listen to your mother and go to the therapy sessions. They can't hurt. Mother usually does know best. Best of luck! If you have had voices in your head and have had these thoughts, which must be terrible you must trust your Mum on this one. our mum's only do for us what is best. trust her and go. Your instinct may be is the thinking of these voices. we all have to trust someone once in a while and this is going to be your time. You say you want the help? Take this offer as it will be rare if it comes again. Good luck and I hope you can do this and come out the other side positively and feeling alot better than you do now. CJay I know it may be embarassing for other's to know about what's happening, but the best thing you can do is go. It's the only way your probably gonna find out what's truely wrong. What are you afraid of? That you might be helped? If you're under 18, you don't have much of a choice. Your parents decide about medical treatment including therapy. Just go. You do know that whatever you say between a therapist and you stays confidential, unless you are a threat to you or others. You should seek help. Don't worry about what others thing. Go, there's nothing wrong with getting help. You need to go. You think that's embarrassing? You'd be even more embarassed if your voices lead to you doing something horrible. Where would you rather be? In therapy or in prison? |
