No, not at all! If they are driving you to therapy in means they want to help and support you and that is something some people don't have. It can be stressful for a parent, I know my dad was when he used to drive me to therapy but in the end it's all for you and you are worth it. :)

Driving you to therapy is not a burden. Going to therapy is a good thing. It would be a good thing for you to see them being supportive.

No of course not. They wouldn't take you to therapy if they see it as a burden anyway. They are your family and they can be your greatest source of support and strength as you go through the therapy.

Of course not. Your family is there to help you and you probably would do the same for them, so having them drive you to therapy must not make you feel a burden for them, they are having a big role in your recovery and healing with help and support!

Let me start by saying how lucky you are to have family members to take you to therapy! It seems like they are supportive of you! I would suggest you to talk about this with your family, and see how they respond to your question.

No, you are definitely not a burden. Your family cares about you and they want you to get the help you need.

If anything, you're letting your family help you get better, and there's nothing more painful than not being able to help a loved one. So don't ever feel like your a burden, and if there's anyone offering to support, give them that chance becuz I am sure they would want to support you in any way :)

This is quite a common response from depressed people. However, it is illegitimately founded and un true.

No! When you have a family you commit to helping them through thick and thin. If they were in the same position, would you drive them to therapy? In the future they will likely need a helping hand and that is when you can step in and pay them back in kind. Until then pay them back with thanks and love.

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
