talking to a counselor

[Guest]

i'm always told to talk to my counselor about things such as emotions and mental health. but every time i go, i choke up and just start crying. i can never get any words out, and my counselor is pretty much the only way i'd be able to get help. what should i do?

I am sorry you are so upset. I hope that your counselor tries to talk things through with you when you reach out. Try taking deep breaths to calm down. It might help. Is there anyone else you can talk to? Maybe if you talk to your parents, they will get you more support. You can always reach out to 2ndfloor by text or phone and we can help.
