Ok, so I've posted quite a few questions on here. And people say from the information i give them, that I would benefit from seeing a therapist. and I agree, I've thought about it lately and I kinda want to go to one.
Problem is, my dad thinks I'm completely normal, and we dont exactly have the most money in the world. Like, I barely come to talk to him about anything. It took me about two months to spit out the fact that I had a boyfriend. I dont know what he'll think if I ask him or tell him about my issues....Im kind of scared. Like, especially with the last post I had, [which if you didnt see or give an opinion on, that would be lovely] really bothers me. I dont know what to think of myself. Please, just help me on this one.

Have you considered free counseling? I haven't researched it a lot, so I don't know if there is any good free counseling out there, but if it is it would seem to be a solution for the financial aspects of your problem. If you're in a school, you might ask your school therapist for help on this.
Understand that I'm not an expert of any kind, and might not even be as sane as I think I am, so take my answer with a grain of salt.
Hi there...free counseling centers near you may be a good place to seek help. Or, you could call and ask about a sliding scale fee at different places...check their prices, though, because even if it is sliding scale, that can be quite a lot.
I cannot remember, but if you are in school (even college/university), contact the guidance counselors/counselors there, and see what help/advice they can give you.
Best,
