So guess what

 

I'm gonna go see a therapist.  It's weird, for the longest time I thought that I was too smart for one, and now I'm opting to do this.  I dunno, in a way it feels like giving up, that I'm admitting I'm not in control of everything, but who am I to say I can do things better than someone who specializes in this sort of thing?  Besides, I don't really have anything to lose.

I have been worrying about lots of things that have sort of been adding up.  The thought that I might not be the genius I thought I was, the insecurity that no one cares about me, the growing fear that I can't make new friends because of some inherent flaw, and the anxiety of college that will possibly confirm all of these notions.  If I can get rid of even one of these problems, it'll be worth it, so hey, what the hell.

There are even perks.  If I don't solve anything, I can blame it on the therapist, displacing all my issues, and if the therapist is a girl, I can act out my favorite scene in Donnie Darko.  Okay, second favorite.  Anyway, wish me luck.

All the the luck, ever.  I'll even dip into my private stash.  I hope it helps, love.  I'm not even going to make any jokes about Jews and therapists... yet.  Maybe if you get really, really comfortable with the idea, I'll find some Woody Allen therapist comedy bits for you to get a kick out of.  Act out some of those, then follow up with the Donnie Darko scene, bam!  Um.. .you're stuck in an insane asylum.  If those still exist.  But anyhow, BAM, am I right? 

But really.... I hope it helps, and you get lessed stressed and more calm about things.  It isn't giving up, and you hopefully get that, since you're going voluntarily, but... eh, you write me all the time.  Used to.  I'm no licensed professional, but still... I dunno.  Guess I don't wanna be replaced.  =P

Love you muchly!

Really, I think it's a good idea. I mean, I've got my dad who makes a very good point in the fact that they're a third party and they can be objective. They can understand your perspective and feelings, but still, they're there to think about things you don't and, if they are productive, help you put them into practice.
Therapists these days are there to help us set aside time to talk to someone that can really help sort out problems in a busy world. It's not like the old days where, 'Oh, you're crazy, go see a psychiatrist.'

I think it'll help, Ben. And there's no reason to feel like you're giving up. If anything, I'd say you're stepping up; that you're ready to make some changes in your life.

I hope my little bit of rambling maybe helps ease you a tiny bit. But good luck anyway, even though I don't think you'll need it. =)

ben. i really do miss the days where you and i were closer. we need to talk more often. i see you in the hallways, and it seems like you struggle to even smile... i've been worried about you. i don't know what is bringing you down, but i hope the therapy can help you find what you are looking for. oh, and don't be afraid to talk to me about your problems every so often, i'm a better listener than people think.
