THis might be personal, but since we dont really know each other at all, i was just curious as to if any of you have gone to one before. I go to one and im feelin better. Ive found out I focus on tryin to be perfect and focus on my looks a lot. I also need to express my emotions more often. So do you go, and has it helped?
Have any of you seen a psychologist?

I think i've got the same problem as you did.
I used to be extremely skinny, wore glasses, had braces....but i've always had an outgoing personality. I've completely changed, a 360 degree turn around...to the point where people from 2 years ago don't even recognize me anymore. But I guess my insecurities of the past still exist. Sometimes I feel like I should see one, but I don't know. How much has it helped and in what ways?

i went to a psychologist, but his methods never seemed to help- but it was nice to pour my AFC cry-baby feelings onto someone who "listens"
nothing beats the help you have from friends and this website though.
i still go to my psychologist, only every 3 months tho- and it's really just a time for the 2 of us to catch up on times, and what's been happening. i dont have any of the problems i had when i went to see him in the beginning, so it's just a social meeting, cuz he's a cool guy

Being one of both, you'd like to think that.

Personally I prefer counselors and psychiatrists over psychologists. Overall counselors tend to be more laid back and help you get a new perspective on things. The good ones don't necessarily tell you what to do but help you come to ideas yourself that will help you through tough situations.

Nope
I can't say that I have.
I do know that during my freshman year of high school, my father suggested that I should go see a counselor since I had an extreme feeling of hatred toward high school.
I told him that I wasn't crazy and to go F#CK himself.
I figured that if I had any problems of any sort, I could figure them out myself (and I did!).
