Should I start going to therapy?
I’m a 17 y/o in high school and I have never learned how to speak about my emotions. I always lose myself through my emotions, especially last summer I would have a lot of mental breakdowns because of family problems, my mom even mentioned to me that I should consider going to therapy. I was just very unsure because my sister is in therapy for anxiety, along with depression, and currently my mom is dealing with a lot of money problems.
I’m not diagnosed with depression but I know I am not as happy as I used to be, I have had no motivation whatsoever, like I just want to give up. At home I feel so worthless and have I never have the courage to do any homework or study for a damn exam.
I don’t want my mom to suffer with money, and I love her so much, I don’t want her to feel like she failed on her kids. What should I do?
p.s. this is my first post so I was kind of nervous to share this.
