At what point should I seek help for how I feel?

When you feel like you cannot handle your emotions on your own, or if you're starting to have self-destructive thoughts.

If you have someone you can trust to talk to about it, right away. If you have plenty of money and good health insurance, get some therapy as soon as you're having any problems. Otherwise, you may have to do a cost-benefit analysis. Generally a good time to seek help (if you don't have to move mountains and put yourself in massive debt to get it) is when the problem is nagging at you often enough that it's starting to distract you from other things, or if you sense it's heading in that direction. In a nutshell: do it as early as possible unless it will be a huge hardship. If it is a huge hardship, start making plans to do it before it gets really bad, and try to find and use everything free that you can.

I believe the point at which you should seek help for the way you feel is if it is having a negative impact upon your life, your career, your relationships, any aspect of your life really.

There is no point. Emotional pain isn't like a flower that get's to a certain point before you pluck it. Going for help is strictly up to you. What it comes down to is if you feel ready. I know it sounds silly, but if you feel ready for help, go for it. There is nothing wrong with waiting, just don't forget that there are people out there who care and make you their priority. Seek help whenever you want.

When your feelings become too difficult to control. When you start to wonder if you should end your life.

It is important to seek help when you are ready to. If someone makes you get help it is likely you won't continue as your heart isn't in it. When you recognise you have a problem and you decide to seek help is the first step to being free.

First and foremost you should seek help when you are ready to get help, this is a first and very crucial step. There are many points at which you should consider seeing a mental health professional, when your problems start to interfere with your daily life is a big sign. Another is if you start to think about harming yourself or others. A sign that you may want to see a mental health professional is when you start to question if you should. Overall there are many points when you may want to consider seeing a mental health professional, but mostly when you feel comfortable doing so.

If you are ever concerned with how you are feeling, talking to a professional is perfectly okay. It's better to be aware of what's going on, even if it's nothing, than be confused.

I would personally seek help anytime I am not feeling myself. For me it would depend on what type of help I seeked depending on how I feel. If I just wanted to talk, I would come to a place like 7 cups of Tea about my feelings. But, If I was feeling really down or hopeless I would seek further assistance and resources.

There is not a right time or wrong time to ask for help, it is whenever you feel most comfortable or when you might be feeling a little too much overwhelmed. The important thing is if you feel safe, comfortable, and okay sharing what you are feeling.
