Should i go to therapy?

Growing up my father was very abusive towards my mother. I saw him almost beat my mother to death in front of me. I’m now 30 and realizing that wasn’t ok. I thought I was “over” it, but I’m just now realizing the affect it has on me on my day to day interactions with people. I have a hard to being vulnerable, random spurts of anger etc. i never want to be the person that says “ I am the way I am because of the way I grew up” , but I’m still affecting me more now than ever. Do you think therapy will help?

    A good therapist will help a lot.

    The key is finding one. Do some research first... and then expect to talk to at least several to find someone who is a good match for you.

    Theres never any downside to therapy.
    If more people went to therapy, less would have to go to therapy in order to deal with those who don't.

    If you’re questioning if you should then you probably should, but no one can make that decision for you. If you go, it should be because you really want to commit to it. Good luck.
