In reply to I am taking my teenager to a therapist ....., posted by woolav on June 11, 2005, at 8:36:13
> I just changed pdoc and he says I should let my daughter see a therapist because both her parents have mental issues (her father, BP1 and myself BP2-I believe) so he suggested that she see someone to perhaps help her in case she starts showing signs of mental illness. Right now, the only thing she has a problem with is anger. She does well in school and has friends, but she can slip into a fight of anger or bad mood in minutes and then later she is happy again. She says she wants to talk to someone, so I am taking her. I hope its the right thing to do...

hi woolav,my teen-aged daughter is pretty well adjusted too, but this summer she's seeing a T. She went for her first appt., and really liked the T. I think just about anyone can benefit from therapy if they're somewhat open to it. Of course if she's totally opposed to it, it might not work as well, but if she's okay with it, why not?
