3. Your mood feels “off ” most of the time

We all have bad days, and that’s OK as long as it doesn’t interfere with your day-to-day schedule. Sometimes anxiety kicks in, and it’s pretty hard to control it, just like being sad. But if this lasts longer than two or three weeks, you should definitely consider seeing a therapist.

4. You experience unexplained changes in weight

If you’re dealing with this unexplained situation when you overeat, you probably think about going to a nutritionist rather than a therapist. But what a lot of people don’t know is that stress can make some people eat more than they usually do.

And others tend to completely lose their appetite. Although you may be happy about losing a bit of weight, don’t ignore changes in your appetite or eating routine. This could be a warning sign of a mental issue, most likely depression, and proper treatment can help you feel better.

    I need to see a therapist. I have no social network that I trust and I need to talk to someone. My friends and sister only want to talk about their problems and none of them want to listen to what I want to talk about.

    I need a psychiatrist today. My brother died, then my mom. My fiancé breaks up with me and gets in my face, I call the cops and I have 3 months to leave, I left the next night. I have no job and I did but he told me not to worry.. if they’re physically or mentally abusing me, he threw me out through all my stuff on the front line, but I lived in a 3000 square-foot house for 10 years. All my stuff did not fit inside of my car now he won’t let me go back and get it. He’s got my cats, my dog and I was on the street. I need a psychiatrist.
