Anything wrong with going to therapy at the age of 14?

Is there anything wrong with going to therapy at the age of 14? I am just wondering because when I go back to school from an appt. Everyone always looks at me weird when they see my tardy note excuse from therapy.

Answer #1

Nope, absolutely not. Thats good that you are willing to go to therapy, because if you chose not to it could cause problems for your future. I admire the fact that you take the time to do the right thing and go, so many young people NEED therapy but they don’t go get it like they should. Just don’t let people see your note, its none of their business.

Answer #2

Well put it this way we would rather have 14 year olds going to therapy than having countless amounts of 14 year old commiting suicide

there is nothing wrong with going to therapy at any age!!

Answer #3

don’t be embarresed, just cause your taking care of your problems. thats a responsible person.

just make sure your getting what you need out of therapy.

Answer #4

Answer #5

no, its not weird I’ve been going to therepy since I was thirteen and im starting art therepy now and im almost 16 its so beneficial and I think its great to have someone to talk to for a whole hour and let out all your emotions and problems

Answer #6

its not weird I go to thearapy because of anger and my parents are devorced it kind of depends on the reason why your going. if its not that bad you should tell your friends if its bad just say its none of there buissness and talk about something else

Answer #7

No theres nothing wrong with it at all people have problems in there lives and some people deal with it by going to therapy so no theres nothing wrong with it and who cares about what other people think

Answer #8

Look at the therapy as you being the best you can be, just like taking a math class or anything else. Simply to better yourself. Parts of this life is cruel and sometimes we all need to talk to someone, so you talk to a therapist. People can be mean like when they stare at someone in a wheelchair or judge someone by their looks. Ignore them, if you think it is right, that is all that matters. There is absolutely nothing wrong with going to therapy.

Answer #9

No, absolutely not. There are many reasons why it’s the right thing to do. Stay with it. You will be one of the most well-adjusted girls in your school.

BUT, why is ANYONE seeing your tardy slip except the teacher. Have your Mom talk to the teacher and let the teacher know that that info is privileged medical information.

Be very glad that your parents had the strength and intelligence to give you help. Be strong and don’t let the weird looks stop you. You can even talk about how you feel with your therapist.

Take care, and Good Luck!!
