My business is successful enough for a comfortable life. I am scared still that I am wrong about not believing in my religion anymore. And the list goes on. I feel like the inevitable is that I am just going to leave my wife and start over but I am scared that I'll be aimless and lonely. I know that there is plenty I can do in life to widen out and make new friends but I am so scared that I am making the wrong decision.
Does anyone recommend a good tool for finding a therapist? Anybody know of specific treatments that they recommend for me? Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Be true about your feelings with your wife, if your friends don't accept you then fuck em.
If you wanna be a lawyer do it.
Don't worry. Just remember your not the only one.
Just think it through a little bit more.
Don't take any medication for depression or anxiety it's not worth the side effects.
That's not how it works. If he's depressed he should definitely take anti-depressants unless it's mild and can be overcome with CBT, mindfulness/meditation, exercise, and a healthy diet. Depression, anxiety and mental illnesses in general aren't as simple as saying fuck it, thinking it through a bit more and skipping anti-depressants. I'm not here to attack you personally, I'm just trying to avoid having not so good advice handed out.
