Should I see a councelor a psychiatrist or a psychologist?

Question

What is the difference? I just need advice about relationships.

Answer 1

they all mess with you... get advice from friends and family. we all learn everything else that way.

Answer 2

none?

Answer 3

If you just need relationship advice, counseling is going to be your best choice of action.  Psychiatrists deal with mental problems in a person to heal that person and psychologists study psychology.  

So, go to a family counselor or marriage counselor nearest you to get some help!  If you do not have a good job with adequate coverage to pay for it, try asking a neutral party such as an acquaintance at work or school that has no real reason to give you the answer they think you want, but will give you one that is the truest given the situation.

Answer 4

Avoid all of them.

Costs to much.

There is a reason they are called Shrinks.

Answer 5

Someone trustworthy from your family is the best choice for this, someone like a brother (a close one that is), a close aunt, or simply one of your parents or both. I don't recommend friends for this at all. Psychiatrists are for people that have a severe problem, and this is not a problem so forget about those. Psychologists could help, but I would skip them, unless you know one. Last, if you can't do this with someone trustworthy in your family (best choice) then the counselor would be a good choice IF (an only if) she is trustworthy.... I have meet a couple of not-so-nice counselors and believe me you don't want to share that stuff with them, unless they care and you know you can. So, consider someone in your family (if mom or aunt are fully trustworthy then don't be shy and ask, it is their duty as older family members to advice you), if not a nice counselor (a woman preferrably, they tend to be nicer, at least they were for me, besides you are a girl so a woman would be better to talk about this), if not a psychologist, but I would go for one of the first 2 I mentioned. Psychologists can talk about this, but they generally deal with problems of a higher scale than a question about relationships. If you are extremely curious about what others have to say though, I guess you could ask the family member, the nice counselor (woman), and even the psychologist (a woman too). I suggest to start with the trustworthy family member, if there is none the choice 2 if not choice 3....... psychiatrists have nothing to do with this business so forget about those.

Answer 6

pray they s***w your head up. One advised me to move on and see other people rather than correct the reasoning why i chose the jerk in the first place.

Answer 7

Problems about relationships can often arise from differences in character, bad habits, arrogance, stubbornness and lack of respect.

Some of the causes are rather basic and obvious even to the man-in-the-street. So it would be ideal if you could consult two or three close relatives or friends first, before you approach a counsellor or a psychologist. If both parties are extremely proud or  stubborn and neither side wants to give way to some deep-rooted issues, then no outsider--professional, relative or friend--can help.

Often the extreme tolerance of one party is necessary to moderate a chaotic relationship. Avoiding shouting matches, walking away from a heated quarrel, and humbly letting the other party 'win', etc may be a better solution. Be forgiving to the other party whose IQ and EQ may not match yours. Smile away instead of becoming angry when something is ridiculous. And going for short holiday trips and indulging more in the same hobbies can bring some magic and improve the relationship. Cheers!
