In reply to Reach out to who?, posted by pixygoth on November 6, 2003, at 12:10:00
I reach out to my therapist, and he always makes me feel at least enough better to keep trying. He reminds me that if I kill myself, I won't be able to see him anymore. And while I respond that I won't particularly care if I'm dead, it always makes me smile. And keeps me going on for a bit longer. And somehow talking about the feelings with someone who's not going to freak out helps some.
So I think that when a lot of us speak of reaching out, we're talking about the mental health professionals that really do manage somehow to help us.
