sharing thoughts can be quite nice if you dont talk to anyone

i mean its a hard thing to do, and i feel like most people would say no but then they find out its actually transformative and beneficial for the vast majority of people. who are you reffering to that gets forced into therapy?

Depends on the situation. I would like to offer you advice, I do not know your situation but to whoever is forcing you, they’re likely doing it out of concern for your well being, so do not feel negative feelings towards them.

Well that changes things. I don’t believe that is for the school to say. The parents get an opinion of course?
