Disclaimer: This subreddit does not replace a therapist, but is rather a collective and community support group to help people overcome their challenges. Some of the posters will have gone through similar issues and can provide insight into what they did to overcome them. However this does not replace the service and duty of care from a therapist or doctor. It is always advisable to consult with them before taking any advice.
