I have decided to seek help from a professional. I have signed up for individual psychotherapy and I will expect their call in the next couple of days for a brief screening.

I've been thinking about this for a very long time and I've been apprehensive because of how expensive it is, but anything is better than nothing. Since I've been saving a lot of income, I'm going to spend some of it for useful purposes and therapy is going to be one of them.
