Why should I see a psychotherapist when I can just talk to my friends?

Christian Murphy :: Psychotherapy & Telephone Counsellin...
There are times when the sharing and understanding of a good friend may be just what you need. However when the degree of emotional pain and the severity of symptoms suggest a problem of greater depth, then your pain, anger or confusion may be too painful for a friend to listen to without judgement. Even the best of friends may want you to cheer up or to not go on about the same thing for too long.

How long and how often do I need to see a psychotherapist or psychologist?

Maven Health and Wellness - Frequently Asked Questions
This really depends on the particular problem(s) being treated and the severity of the problem. Usually a person meets with a therapist for a 45-50 minute session at least once a week in the beginning. However, as treatment progresses sessions can be spread out to allow more time for particular skills to be practiced. Some people who attend therapy from out of town prefer to meet for longer sessions every 2 weeks.

Talk, talk, talk. It's all just talk. How's that going to help?

Psych-Net Mental Health, Suicide FAQ
While it's not a long-term solution in itself, asking a person and having them talk about how they feel greatly reduces their feelings of isolation and distress, which in turn significantly reduces the immediate risk of suicide. People that do care may be reluctant to be direct in talking about suicide because it's something of a taboo subject. In the medium and longer term, it's important to seek help to resolve the problems as soon as possible; be they emotional or psychological.

Just how important is this talk?

Math Department Computing FAQ
If it is important, you might think about emailing me (Zube) a couple of days in advance and asking nicely if I could make sure everything is working with the equipment that you will need. A bit of forethought and planning allows me to work the request into my schedule with the result that everyone ends up happy. If you forgo this step, don't be surprised if the equipment does not work as expected.

Should I talk to the victim's friends or family?

WCADV
Be careful. Well-intended family members may tell the abuser that the victim has told you about the abuse. Others may confront the abuser. Either way, the victim could be at greater risk of harm. Ask the victim what could happen if you talk to family members or friends.

Is it OK if I talk to my friends during lecture?

Math 111 FAQ
Absolutely not. Talking not only distracts me from my job, it disturbs the students sitting near you. It is rude and inconsiderate. If you insist on having conversations during lecture, I will ask you to leave. If you have something important to discuss, you might be better off skipping lecture, going to get a cup of coffee, and getting the lecture notes from a friend.

I have close friends. Why do I need a therapist to talk to?

Eric Candell - Frequently Asked Questions
The support that we receive from friends remains a critical part of our mental health. However, our friends--because they know us and because they adhere to common social norms--often will reinforce the very traits in ourselves that we want to change. The dynamics of a friendship frequently depend on our staying the same. Especially when we find ourselves in a vulnerable position, we look to our friends for support and caring.
