If you break your foot, you go see a doctor. If your car is struggling to go up hills, you take it to a mechanic. If your mind is exhausted and your mental health is struggling, you should see a therapist.
I started seeing one when covid lockdowns started coming in my town, and it’s been a life changing experience. They work with you to uncover what is happening, and teach you strategies and ways of thinking to accept or overcome the issues you’re facing.
Right now if your mental health is struggling, it will impact your decision making and so many other aspects of your life. Rather than make a huge decision like quitting a job or career, first go get some help and discuss it with someone who is trained to help. All the best.
- drumhead 5y agoThis is the best advice you'll get on this subject. Therapists can help you with your problems far better than we ever could. They can determine if you need medication to help you get through this rough patch and what sort of therapy you need. You seem to have funds to do this as well, so consider it an investment in your mental health.
