A few words
can open a door.
“I’ve been having a tough time, and I could use someone to talk to.”
You might start with someone you trust or a health care professional. You don’t need to describe everything perfectly to ask for support.
A primary care provider can help you explore options and refer you to a qualified mental health professional.
