I'll keep my mouth shut from now on in regards to mental health issues as I know where i stand in the world. Irulan-I understood what you meant & have never said anything bad against anyone else taking meds!!!


Tri Girl-sorry to have hijacked your thread. I do hope everything works out for you. I realize you've been under stress at work & just haven't been there to really understand how you feel. Take care & yes, if you require immediate help, do not stop, just go & find it!!!

There does indeed seem to be a general social stigma attached to the terms "therapy", "Psychiatrist", "mental health", "shrink", etc. It's unfortunate, but there it is. For anyone who gets uncomfortable when they use these terms to the point of hesitating to get help because of it, I think if you substitute the word "counseling", it might not trigger inner uncomfortable associations as much.
