Finding the right therapist is straight up like dating. I’ve heard so many people say that they’ve “tried therapy once” and it didn’t work out so they never tried it again. If you go on a bad date, you’re not going to swear off dating, so the same should be applied to therapy. You just have to keep trying and be patient and know what you want and what you don’t want, and then hopefully you’ll meet the right one.

Other methods for pain relief that I’ve used also includes drinking any of my favorite herbal non-caffeinated teas (my fave is ginger), and ingesting CBD of some kind. The comfort of ingesting something hot and relaxing my body with CBD puts me in a state of ease and relaxation.
