14|Female...For about two years ever since I found out my dad cheated on my mom...my life has been completely different, i use to feel really confident about my body but now i dont, i feel over weight and ugly (even though im 89lbs)I also have really bad trust issues now..I dont want to be like this anymore I want the old me back, My mom says the best way is for me to talk to someone about it but I cant talk to her because I know that it will upset her about the dad thing and I cant talk to my older sister because she will think im just going through some teenage stage...my mom suggested I see a therapist but i dont know if I want to or not because it just seems weird telling a stranger my feelings...and also I know they cost alot of money so I dont want to just waste money if I am going through a teenage stage but I dont think it is just a teenage stage...Im just really scared I am going to do something crazy if I dont tell people how I feel. So my question is...should I see a therapist or not? (link)

my first answer would be to not go to a therapist. in the past ive found that they can be less than helpful, always concluding they know exactly whats going on in your mind, even if they dont. i have the exact same problem. I know how hard it is to block out the love of others because for some reason you cant trust them enough to let them in. there is not easy answer. do you have any really close friends, that were with yu before all of this happened? talking to them might help. Talking to strangers about your problem definately isnt the best solution in this situation. nobody knows you better (besides yourself) than those who've been with you and who care about you. Just keep trying, and try to not look at anything in a negative way. life isnt about the way you look, no matter how many materialistic people will tell you otherwise. in the end all that matters is what the world looks like to you, not what the world thinks you look like.(im not sure if that made perfect sense but i hope you understand it well enough) take care of yourself. i hope i helped =]
