There's no shortage of problems we can have in life. Maybe you've spoken to a few friends about your problems, perhaps you've read some books and tried some remedies - but so far the issues remain unresolved and still troubling to you. You're starting to think that maybe you need professional help. The first thing to understand is that there's nothing shameful about seeking professional help for your emotional problems. Of course not.
Emotional problems are as much a part of life as physical illness.
This is just one of the facts of life. But when those problems become serious or overwhelming or too distressing, it's time to seek professional help. You're attempting to view things realistically and constructively - that is with a view towards helping yourself to good resolutions. In that way it's really a very significant, very positive step. There are many, many sources of help these days.
