I think it would be good for you to bring a friend. Especially if you feel like you need someone with you this badly. Just be honest and tell him it would mean a lot to you if he came with you because you're afraid to go alone and you want his support. A good friend wouldn't even hesitate in agreeing to accompany you. I really hope things get better for you. Good luck.

i think it would be ok to bring ur friend..but how good is this friend i mean how close are u 2? if he/she is willing to go with u then yeah

yeah its ok to bring your friend.

yeah its fine

You can bring a friend with you i always do when i go to my counsler she comes with me everytime and i go like every week, my counsler never says anything about it she said it was totaly ok. Good luck, really hope i helped!!!

Oh course its okay to have a friend go with you. Tell the nurse you want the friend to be involved with your session. They will understand your nervous and need to be with someone you know.

its ok .
i think if hes your friend he'll be there to support you.
and i think its good that you did that for yourself
before it got worse so props. to you for that!
you should ask him to go with you i think its easier
when you have someone thats there.

and if you ever need to talk you can message me or whatever. and you should definetly join
