Feelings begin someplace and getting help finding that someplace through psychotherapy helps us learn about ourself. That kind of help lasts a lifetime.
Psychotherapy is very interesting process.
Wanting to feel better and to have a full and rich life are wonderful things to want for oneself.

I was on medication for many years and decided to discontinue the medication to see what "I" was like without my emotions be blunted and numbed. It is a rewarding challenge to learn about me, to learn to feel what I feel, to find words for my inner experiences, to learn what begins the feelings of depression, anxiety, panic attacks, and other experiences of fear. One can even explore where 'good' feeling like happiness and contentedness begin and what they are about.
Psychotherapy creates change that lasts.
Thanks for this!
