if you mean seeing a therapist for help with an emotional or mental health problem, then yes, I have. I think you'll find that many people have sought help when they needed it. People don't talk about it much, but once you bring it up, you'll find that they are willing to talk to you and encourage you.

i was told i was normal. HAH!!! of course it helps when i know the answers to all the questions. mine was not voluntary though. since someone reccomended me for a court martial for threatening to kill him it was mandatory. unfortunatly it was in Korea and not Texas, where "he needed killin!" is a viable reason

You may be surprised to learn that no, I have not. Which is not to say that I don't need therapy.
I know some very 'normal' people who see counsellors/therapists. People cope in different ways.

When I was very young, my dad was diagnosed with a laundry list of phsychosis and manias and they made us go the the therapist too just to see if maybe it was rubbing off.
When I was in grade school, one of the teacher's used me as her subject for her psych thesis.
Other than that...uh uh.

Yep. He's male and he's between the ages of 3-18.
Witness Rob? Gdawg?
