<p>Well said, lookingforward.</p>
<p>The OP already announced in his very first post that, with respect to appointments made for him by his parents, " I’ve intentionally skipped all appointments they have made with a therapist, despite being harshly reprimanded by them". So in all likelihood, no amount of encouragement from well-intentioned posters to “get thee to a therapist” is apt to make much of a difference at this point.</p>
