Constructive discussions
- Choose the right people to talk to. And if you need a lot of talk time, try spreading your conversations out to multiple people.
- Choose the right time to talk. Your friends may want to support you, but they have their own lives.
- Find a therapist. If you have misconceptions about it, think of it less like seeing a doctor and more like a personal trainer.
- Give yourself an endpoint. You may not be able to fix the external problem that is bothering you, but the goal should at least be to improve your mood about it.
- Talk about the good as well as the bad. Be sure to share your good experiences and feelings when they come up.
