Hello,

I heard about this site through a friend, and from what I can tell it's fantastic. While I haven't been able to read to many of the posts here, it would seem that this is a very accepting community of people. I'm looking for support as I try new things to deal with my depression. My first session with a counsellor is in two days, and I was wondering if people could maybe give me an idea of what it will be like. All I know so far is that it's incredibly expensive, and down the road I may not be able to afford it. Anyways, how long are these sessions, and are they worth paying for? Do people feel that they get something out of it? Prior to this my solutions have been... well, less than effective. I'll write more another time to give you an idea of where I come from. Hopefully someone will have time to answer this.
