My Sister Is Going To See Her Doctor Next Week As She Has Anger Management Issues & Hits Her Boyfriend?

Unless she really feels that she can’t face it alone, I would not recommend she take anyone with her, especially on her first visit. She’ll find it easier to be honest if she’s there by herself. If she really has a problem with going by herself, see if she can manage to leave whoever goes with her in the waiting room. People often find it difficult to open up when there’s someone else in the room, especially someone who’s involved. Once she feels comfortable with the process, then’s the time to introduce the other people involved in her issues. She’s already done the hardest bit. It may be a cliche, but admitting that you need help is the most difficult part of the process. She’s got one of the things that you need to be successful in self development- emotional support-, the fact that you care enough to ask questions and find out about her healing process is support in itself. Hang in there for her, I hope you have positive results. Good luck.

i am going to see a therapist honestly. i think that she should go by herself there may be things that she talks about and may not want others to know. when someone goes to the doctors it’s supposed to be a private thing a trust thing. i think she should go the first time by herself that’s what i did.

If she wants someone to go with her, go, but you do not have to sit in on the session with her. Or, if you want to go, offer, but tell her you can wait in the waiting room or go in with her if she’d like.

It would be great if she would let her boyfriend go with her. Tell her boyfriend to ask her if he can go with her.

Her boyfriend, or you as sister.
It will be scary if it is the first time.
