Is my problem enough of a problem for therapy?

Sometimes, people find it hard to justify their reason to come to therapy. There may be a sense that they are not struggling enough, in enough pain and 'thing's aren't that bad really' but the minimising of our pain can be part of the problem (and also part of the survival).

Often it can be a massive leap into self-esteem to say to yourself, yes, I am worth this investment, things can be better.

4 questions to ask yourself:
- How long have you felt like this?
- How long do you want to go on feeling like this?
- Would you want a good friend to feel how you feel?
-What if you still felt like this in 5 years' time?

Listen to your answers, they will tell you if it's time for you to start therapy.
