I went to therapy at Oana Nicolau Clinic and it helped me acknowledge and understand my emotions, to express them and to identify their sources. It wasn’t easy. And the first and hardest step was overcoming everybody’s bias against therapy and understanding that if I go to therapy it doesn’t mean I’m insane. That it’s something normal, like going to your doctor for the annual check-up. Now I understand my emotions and I know how to handle them and that changed my life completely.

From the outside, I look like a calm, joyful, communicative and sociable person. But there are moments when I feel blocked, tensed to the point it started to show. I don’t like to talk about my feelings so I ended up isolating myself from everyone and everything. The fact that I started to become aware of all this, that I was able to talk about it and admit it to myself, and then take the necessary steps towards getting better was all thanks to therapy.
