- How did you get help?

I got help after a mental breakdown at school.. I was referred to a therapist


- What happened on your first appointment?

Pretty much, the therapist asked me how I was feeling, and explained what would happen while I was there, and went over the privacy policy with me.


- How often are / were your appointments?

Started off 2-3 times a week, then went to 1 time a week, then 1 every 2 weeks.


- How long did they last?

Usually an hour, but sometimes it would go over.


- What advice can you give to anybody that is anxious about visiting a counsellor / their first appointment?

Just be honest, they are there to help, and guide you into the right direction. My biggest regret is pretending I had gotten better so I could get out of it. I wish I was still there.
