I did therapy for a while (talking) after a relative of mine committed suicide. At first, I was not too excited after all I thought "How is talking going to help me?" Then a wonderful door opened and I just shared my heart with the Psychologist (who was also a leader in my Church) and she knew exactly what she was doing because she guided me to the answers I was looking for but she did it in a very subtle manner. It was great. I would recommend talking therapy to anyone before even trying to use any type of meds.
