A TABOO NAMED THERAPY



There has always been a lot of prejudice when it comes to seeing a counselling psychologist or getting a stress management therapy. As much as people are aware about mental illness today, there is still a huge chunk of population that sees it as a taboo. They believe that there is nothing as persistent sadness and it is all just a phase of life which will pass with time. However, they fail to understand that having a mental issue is as common as having a cold, but if not treated on time, can worsen and be irretrievable also.

Like we have doctor for everything else today, we have doctors’ therapists for this as well who stress on the importance of stress management. The aim of these doctors is to provide you with a psychology therapy so good, that it successfully gets you out of the misery that you are in. There is a lot of speculation about these psychologists as well. But these doctors are trained to treat their patients with a lot of empathy and provide a completely non-judgemental ear to them. They know that one of the reasons that their patients come to them is also because they do not have someone who they can confide into or someone who would listen to them. 

It is a shame that many people who are in dire need of medication and therapy are still no way close to getting the help they need. Many a times they don’t even know that they are in depression, leave alone seeing a counselling therapist. All we as citizens can do is spread awareness in these areas that do not have access to such information as much as possible. So that, in near future, people will approach a therapist just as any other doctor without any pre-notions in their head and get treated and free from their condition.

MENDING AND HEALING RELAITONSHIPS

There is no relationship in the world that does not face problems between the two people. When we talk about a relationship, we have to keep in mind that we are talking about two different individuals coming together to form a beautiful bond of love. Two people with different ideologies and different thinking striving to be accommodating of each other’s needs and maintaining a balance in their own. This system of accommodating and acceptance is going to have a little bit of friction leading to minor fights. But what is important, is how the two people make up after the fight and whether they accept and move on from the incident. Sometimes, a fight or a situation can be so gruesome that both or one of the individuals cannot let go of it. That is when they need the help of a relationship advisor who may be a friend close to the family, a family member or a professional who is trained to deal with couples’ issues on a daily basis. This relationship advisor’s main aim is to first...

COMBATTING DEPRESSION WITH FAMILY’S HELP

Feeling sad is normal. We all feel sad from time to time. The reasons for this sadness may vary. Death or loss of a close one, break up, failure, fight, are some of the instances that make us sad as humans. But eventually, we learn to accept the facts of what has happened, and we move on. Gradually, you feel better and you start living normally again. But what if, this sadness never goes away? What if, you keep feeling sad, and not knowing what is making you sad makes it worse?

HOW CHILDHOOD SCARS AFFECT ADULTHOOD

We all face different types of problems in our life. These can be problems in different areas in our lives. It could be our work, our family, our love life, relationship with our friends, career related or something else. Nobody is totally happy and without problems in life. But we have been bestowed with the ability to face these situations and find a solution for these problems on day to day basis. This is how life works after all. We face a problem, we tackle it and then we move forward to the next one waiting for us. Cycle of life as some people like to call it. But sometimes, due to some reasons, we may not be able to cope up with those problems. Nothing we do seems to work out or seems to ease the situation. This in turn leads to a lot of mental stress for an individual. There are many instances when one might seek help from people close to them. But if even that doesn’t seem to help, then maybe seeing a counselling psychologist might. In today’s world that moves forwar...
