I'm so happy I've made a decision to better myself. In the beginning, I was feeling overwhelmed by all the factual realities presented. I want to heal, I needed to heal from so many things that I used to think were not a part of my present life's moments. I was wrong, I am okay admitting I was wrong. The single best decision of my life so far. I've finally found a place where I can open up. I now know that not being okay is okay, and I no longer feel the need to hide anything I've gone through. I'd push people away from not knowing how to let love be given, and wonder why I have nobody to talk to. The first moment I felt like I was a person who didn't need any help, I'd never ask for help, I'd even be uncomfortable accepting help from anyone who tried to be there for me. I'm not sure why, I am sure about the facts of the life I live being the most important part of the life I used to call as a finger-pointing, blaming man that chased away anyone that loved me. It's hard to express my feelings to anyone.
By the third week, my therapist had the feeling of being overwhelmed dissolved, and then I was able to know that I'm doing this for a really good reason, I am that reason. I'll always be able to make a better decision mentally and then give better words as the only thing I used to take for granted and force onto others. Now I know I was the problem, and BetterHelp is the solution. I'm so happy to be able to express myself without worry, I am doing it in a way that I used to call into question. Now I can look at myself and see if it's me who I need to call into question.
I've been attending sessions for four weeks now. That's three more weeks than I imagined possible. And now, I'm not stopping until I receive all the help I can get. Thanks to BetterHelp. Thanks to my own decision, all it took was giving it a chance, and now I'm going to heal all the troubles of my past that keep lingering into my present life's moments. I am grateful for the professionalism and empathy that I am receiving and wouldn't want to get it from any other place, BetterHelp is giving me what I have never been given. The chance to know my feelings are important, and I am important too.

Pros and Cons
The easy way it's accessible to me.
When in need, it provides large amounts of help from small and quick interactions.
Having a therapist that's confident and intelligent gives me the same thing as the foundation I've never had. Emotional intelligence from knowing I am cared for by the therapist I have helping me.
How it's an open first come, first serve basis. I feel like if it was same time and day each week it would provide a deeper level of faster trust with the sessions.
I had a fear of being in front of video cameras. That's no longer a fear.
