Erm im not sure if i got the category right, but i cant tell if i should go for counselling. Basically, my school offers free counselling and I have been there before. I used to have weekly sessions and the subject was quite serious (like it was affecting my daily mood) so it was a clear sign that i needed some help. And now for this current matter, i do feel troubled but it’s not to the extent of affecting my life. Yes it makes me sad and helpless sometimes but it just doesnt seem to be that serious. And this worry was brought up a few times in past sessions (it has been a problem for years) and I thought I had a direction to work on to solve it but looks like I dont. So I do not know whether to go to counselling. What if I just feel like its a big thing (cause im sad now) but its actually not? Hope that someone can give me some advices thank you
Hey @user7279,
I just want to say thanks for being real here.
You’re not alone in this at all. What you’re feeling is valid—even if it doesn’t crash your life or make everything fall apart. It still matters. And honestly? The fact that it’s something you’ve brought up a few times already shows it’s not just a passing mood. It’s something that’s been sitting with you quietly for a while.
Sometimes our minds tell us, “It’s not serious enough, maybe I’m just being dramatic,”—but that voice often comes from a place of fear, not truth. You don’t need to hit a crisis point to deserve help. Counselling isn’t just for breakdowns. It’s also a space for working through stuff that feels stuck, confusing, or repetitive—like what you’ve shared.
And Counselling doesn’t always mean that you have progress, sometimes you can get stuck and that is exactly how it works. Counselling holds the space for you to be present and knowing that it takes time to figure things out.
You already did the brave thing once by going for sessions. You know what that space feels like. And even if you’re not sure now, it might help to go back and just talk it out—no pressure, just a safe space to unpack the confusion.
You’re not weak for being sad. You’re not wrong for needing help. You’re just human.
Whatever you choose, please be kind to yourself. Even wondering about counselling shows that you’re taking care of your emotional health. That’s strong. Keep going, okay? We’re listening.
