I saw a mental health professional for an evaluation, and I'd talk about some of my issues along the way.

The meetings with him would make me feel differently about a decision I've had in mind for some time - to study far away.

Why is that? It's been bothering me.

Who knows. Only you really.
Maybe they offered a different perspective that you hadn't considered before.

I think, sometimes, just having the opportunity to talk things through with someone, is helpful in-&-of-itself even if it doesn't result in any firm decisions. I know, in my own case, I have absolutely no one to talk to about the things I'm struggling with. (I no longer see a therapist.) And I'm not going to have. But, sometimes, just the thought that there would be someone I could actually sit down & talk with is almost overwhelming. I'm glad you had the opportunity you had to meet with that mental health professional.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
