Why Going to Therapy Does Not Mean You are Weak or Flawed

Opening up to a therapist about your struggles, especially those that are intensely personal and difficult, is far from weak or self-indulgent - it takes courage to share those things, to choose to look at and work through those struggles! It takes far less courage and strength to ignore and "hide" those things from yourself (andor others) than it does to unpack them and work through them. Everyone experiences challenges throughout life, and assuming you must work through all of it alone is sometimes like assuming you should be your own doctor as well! And lastly, imagine what working through those challenges in therapy can then open you up to do once those challenges are no longer taking so much of your time, energy, and head space. Sometimes the courage that going to therapy takes is the courage to allow yourself to move forward.
