There are common reasons we can<\/strong> benefit from therapy<\/strong>, covered in our article “Do You Need Therapy?<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

But there are other, less talked about behaviours and thoughts that might also suggest it’s time to talk to a therapist.<\/em><\/p>\n

12 Questions that show it’s time to talk to a therapist<\/h2>\n

Read on to see if you answer yes to any of the following questions.<\/p>\n

1. Do you often feel that nobody understands you?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

It’s normal for teenagers to feel misunderstood<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But if you have reached your late 20s or beyond and still feel misunderstood, it can be related to<\/strong>\u00a0intimacy, identity<\/a>, or communication problems<\/a>. These are often traced back to the way we were parented<\/a> or even childhood trauma<\/a>, so it’s a good idea to talk to a therapist.<\/p>\n

Note that sometimes, if the way you see the world is always diametrically at odds with everyone else, it might be a sign that you have a personality disorder<\/a>.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

2. Over the age of 30, but have failed to sustain a relationship for more than six months?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

It’s often a fear of intimacy<\/a> or faulty ways of relating<\/a> we don’t even realise we have that leave us lonely<\/a>.\u00a0 A therapist can not only help you see and understand the problem clearly, they create a safe space to learn how to trust<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you fall in love constantly, but it’s over a few months later, or tend to have push and pull relationships,<\/strong> it might also be a sign of borderline personality disorder<\/a>. Which is hard to deal with alone, meaning it can be a great benefit to talk to a therapist.<\/p>\n

3. Are you always tired, no matter how much sleep you get?<\/span><\/h3>\n
\"Talk<\/a>

By: Edna Winti<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

If you’ve had a health check and the doctor can’t find anything, it’s worth it to talk to a therapist. Constant fatigue<\/a> is actually a sign of depression<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It might be that there is something upsetting you more than you realised, and dealing with it might be the fastest way to get your energy back.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

4. Are you often told that you are too impulsive?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

We are all spontaneous now and then. But if<\/strong> your impulsivity tends to sabotage your wellbeing<\/a> – your relationships<\/a>, your career – then it might be more than just an occasional flight of fancy.<\/p>\n

A high level of impulsivity is often reported in those who suffered childhood trauma<\/a>. It’s also a leading symptom of borderline personality disorder (BPD).<\/p>\n

[Read more in our article, ‘What is Impulsivity?<\/a>‘.]<\/strong><\/p>\n

5. In a relationship you aren’t quite happy in, but you just can’t leave?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Not being able to leave a relationship is often a sign of low self-worth a<\/a>nd\/or codependency<\/a>. These are deep-rooted patterns it can be extremely hard to shift without support. And the longer you stay, the lower your self-worth can drop, leading to depression<\/a>.<\/p>\n

6. Suffer from ongoing physical symptoms that your family doctor simply can’t figure out?<\/span><\/h3>\n

For some, it’s just ongoing muscle tension<\/a> or sleep problems<\/a> that are a sign something is not right mentally and you are suffering from anxiety or depression<\/a>. But for others, it can unexplained medical symptoms<\/a> that just keep recurring.<\/p>\n

It’s not fully understood why some people manifest physical symptoms when they are mentally suffering. But if this might be you, therapy can’t hurt and just might improve your physical health.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

7. Do you think that life is meant to be hard and you are born unlucky?<\/span><\/h3>\n
\"Talk<\/a>

By: Bede Jackson<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

Are all your thoughts negative?<\/strong> Do you tend to think in extremes<\/a>? And is there any doom and gloom in there?<\/p>\n

Negative thinking<\/a> is a major cause of low moods. It leads to a cycle of negative feelings and then negative life choices that keep you stuck in a downward spiral.<\/p>\n

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)<\/a> helps you break this cycle and learn how to practice balanced thinking.<\/a>\u00a0It can be like opening a window you didn’t know was there.<\/p>\n

8. Have you recently moved country? But have never thought to talk to a therapist?<\/span><\/h3>\n

It all seems so exciting, at first. And then you feel lonely, lost, and disconnected.<\/p>\n

A move to a different country is actually a common cause of anxiety, depression, and also relationship problems if you’ve moved as a couple or family. And if you’ve been struggling for a few months or more, it’s more than enough of a reason to reach out to a counsellor over.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

[Sound like you? Read our piece on the “Moving Abroad Blues<\/a>.”]<\/strong><\/p>\n

9. Do you find it hard to say no to others?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Are you exhausted from always doing things that don’t really interest you because you say yes when you mean to say no<\/a>? Or even find yourself in relationships because you didn’t know how to let someone down? It’s all a sign that you lack personal boundaries<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It’s a hard pattern to change, but if you talk to a therapist you can learn why you have this issue and how to take back your personal power<\/a>.<\/p>\n

10. Do you think that the world is a very dangerous place?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
\"talk<\/a>

By: Stefan Rheone<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

If your feeling that the world is dangerous is pervasive, and not just when you read the news or have a bad experience, it is likely you have a strong negative core belief.<\/a><\/p>\n

The core belief that the world is a dangerous place often stems from childhood trauma. Left untreated, it can mean you don’t reach your potential, or sabotage good things in life to ‘prove’ your belief true.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

11. Do you wake up in the middle of the night with a pounding heart?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

There are many medical conditions, such as menopause<\/a>, that can be a factor here. But if your doctor finds you in good health, read about night anxiety<\/a>. Some of us manage to suppress our anxiety in the day, resulting in constant nightly anxiety attacks. Treating the anxiety can put an end to sleepless nights.<\/p>\n

12. Do you really, truly, hate your job?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Yes, many of us do some jobs we don’t like until we establish ourselves.<\/p>\n

But if you have always done jobs you hate, it might not be ‘just life’. It might be that deep down you lack<\/strong> confidence<\/a>, or that you are so afraid of upsetting others it stops you from both leaving or asking for a promotion.<\/p>\n

Talk therapies are actually very useful for workplace issues<\/a>, helping you clarify what you truly want and finally make those steps forward.<\/p>\n
