When you seek psychotherapy, you must understand that you have a long way to go. It is a process in which, step by step, you get to know yourself and how you are building your life.
Do not expect psychotherapy to sort things out. At least at the beginning and at first it won't work that way.
Once you enter psychotherapy, you will begin to notice new desires and things that you did not notice before
You will see what you put up with, but now you don’t want to put up with it. These discoveries will complicate your life, it will be five to ten times or more new discoveries. Unfolding in psychotherapy is a secondary process and you will, of course, come to it. But the primary thing is to notice yourself.
There are several types of psychological services
These are psychological counseling, psychiatry and psychotherapy itself.
How to distinguish them and what to choose for you?
Psychological counseling
It helps to understand what situation a person is in and determine ways to deal with it. This is not a time-consuming process in which a psychologist helps to audit a problem and find a solution. In other words, you learn something, go and integrate it into life.
But your life doesn't change. Yes, you are solving a specific problem, but after a while the situation may reappear. Moreover - in the same place. Because you only solve the problem, you don't change yourself.
Psychiatry
Designed to solve more complex problems, where psychopathological symptoms are already present. Those situations that you cannot solve either on your own or in contact with another person. It can be depression, panic attacks, delusions, hallucinations. And with this you need to work with pharmacological methods that the psychiatrist will tell you.
Psychotherapy
No man's zone. This is neither the first nor the second. It is designed to learn how your life works, who you are in it, how you interact with people and build the future.
The truth is that we all live automatically, without thinking about ourselves. We live the way we used to since childhood. At some point, you may notice that there is anxiety about something. Questions to the world, to yourself. This is the place to go to psychotherapy and take responsibility for your life.
