Just wanted to post something positive. Started seeing a therapist three months ago and it's been life changing. I was skeptical at first but learning actual tools to manage the panic and racing thoughts has made such a difference. Been able to be more present with my family. If you've been thinking about it, I'd say just do it. Worth every penny.
More dads need to see this. Getting help isn't weakness, it's the strongest thing you can do for your family. Glad it's working out for you.
Good on you for being real about this. Saw a therapist too and it changed how I handle situations with my kids. You're showing them what it actually looks like to take care of yourself.
That's awesome to hear. I think a lot of dads are in the same boat but don't want to talk about it. Props for stepping up and doing something about it.
This is huge man. Really glad you shared this. More dads need to hear that getting help isn't weakness, it's the opposite. Takes real strength to do that.
This is so good to read. I've been thinking about getting help for a while but kept putting it off. Hearing that it actually made a difference is encouraging. How did you find your therapist?

Needed this post today honestly. Three months in and I'm already noticing I handle stuff with my kids differently. Therapy is worth it.
