Mental Health series: 5: Why choose an online psychiatrist

It's not uncommon for people with mental health issues to find friendships with people over the internet. The younger generation are known for making 'Internet friends' Whom they often will say they are closer to than their real life friends. This is because they have someone there who they can fully open up to and because its over a screen, they feel comfortable because its almost as though that person isn't real. Online counselling can often offer the same feeling. It's knowing there is someone there who can offer friendly advice and is willing to listen to your every thought but will never be in your personal space and that disconnection between an online world and real life is what makes online counselling so great and why it works so well.

Over on BetterHelp, you will find all the positive reasons an online psychiatrist could work for you!

    The article on "Mental Health Series 5: Why Choose Online Therapy?" provides a compelling argument for the benefits of online therapy. The author offers a thoughtful exploration of the ways in which online therapy can be a more accessible and convenient option for individuals seeking mental health support.

    I appreciated the author's emphasis on the potential benefits of online therapy, including greater flexibility in scheduling sessions, reduced stigma associated with seeking mental health support, and the ability to access therapy from the comfort of one's own home.

    I would like to share a mental health IOS App. Its also helpful for people who are searching Online counseling App. Relationship counselling app

Mental Health series: 2 | Signing up for online therapy

So, you have recognised you may be struggling with a problem that can't be faced alone but like many people, have too much self pride to go to your local GP and reach out for help. So I guess that means you`ll have to face it alone, right? Not at all! First of all, the fact you recognise there is an issue is the first step in making progress to getting better. If you ARE the type of person who has too much self pride to ask a stranger for help but also realise that you are facing challenges your family may not understand and aren't able to give you the correct support in, then I suggest looking into signing up for online therapy. Signing up for therapy with BetterHelp is a quick and easy process and whilst you may decide you are ready to talk to a therapist, the advice on offer will give you some guidance and support. Whilst going through therapy myself, I was quick to realise that my improvements weren't anything to do with the fact I had a councillor and that they were ...

"Id rather be a comma than a full stop"

       Music has the magical power to impact us throughout our lives and take us on new journeys and paths which is why I have always been so drawn towards it as an art form, as a lyricist and listener. Lyrics specifically have played a part in the shaping of who I am and then morals I hold, guiding  me through moments in my life where words without melodies were not enough.   “I’d rather be a comma than a full stop” . Taken from Coldplay’, ‘Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall’ Is a line that made my mind tick and think a little deeper.  So what does it mean to me? As always with art, each persons connotation will contrast however to me the song is about being jubilant and overcoming melancholy, fear, trials and tribulations; that's why he says "So you can hurt me bad, but still I'll raise the flag". Consequently, the way I interpret ‘I’d rather be a comma than a full stop’ suggests that by being a comma, which is a type of punctuation used in text t...

I AM NOT STANDING UP FOR MY RIGHTS.

We have opinions, we have voices and our generation is not scared to fight against our corrupt system. I am a gay woman and the right to exist wholeheartedly has been fought for by the strong men and women who came before me. Now it’s our turn to carry on their work.   Today, Manchester’s “Kill The Bill” protest took place, and at first, I thought nothing of it - when you live in the city, protests are an everyday occurrence. But as I continued to walk through it, I felt overwhelmed with the power and passion I was surrounded by. I began to question myself as to why I was walking past and not into it after all, if it wasn’t for the power of protest then I wouldn’t have the freedom that I seemingly take for granted.  Walking away left me with a sense of guilt and realisation that simply saying that I support equality and freedom of speech is not enough; so I turned around and put myself in unknown territory. Ego and fear of vulnerability removed, peace, love, and support from t...
