I first started using BetterHelp after a really horrible breakup and then falling out with a close friend. I was devastated at the time, and I’ve often had trouble opening up to people in my life.
What I found so helpful with BetterHelp is that I had someone that I could just talk with about what I was feeling as many times as it took for me to feel like I’d gotten all the feelings out, even if it was about the same thing every time. Even though I did talk to people in my life, something about having a therapist to talk to made me feel like I didn’t have to hold back as much and could express my feelings a little more realistically, or unfiltered.
I’ve also come to really appreciate the exercises and worksheets that my therapist offers me, because it helps me look at my feelings or any situation a little differently, and then helps me understand it that much better. I feel like BetterHelp and the therapist they assigned me genuinely helped me in a time in my life where I needed as much help as I could get, and I’m so glad they came through for me.
Pros and Cons:
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
